“If Trump says his previous lies are lies, is he lying?” https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/opinions/wp/2018/08/06/if-trump-says-his-previous-lies-are-lies-is-he-lying/?utm_term=.b369f1c16e7d “President Trump is running out of things to lie about, so now he’s getting around to lying about the lies he lied about before.
This was the inevitable result of his ever-increasing rate of lying. When you have blanketed the earth with an unbroken surface of lies, covering every subject, you have no choice but to start a second layer contradicting the first. This, of course, makes the proof of lying rather simple. All you need to do is place two contradictory Trump statements side by side, and one of them has to be a lie. Alas, it does not make the job of fact-checking any easier, as the accumulating sticky goo of lies atop lies makes penetration with a shovel problematic at best.
This, of course, is the point of nonstop lying.”
“Republicans need to keep control of the House to protect President Trump from the Russia investigation, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes said at a recent fundraiser, according to an audio recording released Wednesday.
“If Sessions won’t unrecuse and Mueller won’t clear the president, we’re the only ones. Which is really the danger,” Nunes said, referring to Atty. Gen. Jeff Sessions and Robert S. Mueller III, the special counsel heading the investigation into Russian efforts to sway the 2016 election and possible coordination with the Trump campaign.
“I mean, we have to keep all these seats. We have to keep the majority. If we do not keep the majority, all of this goes away,” Nunes said.” (LA Times 8/8/18) http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-nunes-recording-20180808-story.html
