The apple does not fall far from the tree. When that’s the “adult” behavior a child sees modeled for it growing up, and sees the result, why would you expect the child to be any different once it has grown up?
Now we can all see why trump just had to have his own family to do his bidding. It had to be only those willing to accept all the dirt with no questions asked, and there was to be all dirt, all the time. Drain the swamp, my a$$.
Disgusting, isn’t it? WHERE is the fake rage from the Right-Wingnut Media? Imaging how loudly they would be screaming to the Heavens and foaming at the mouth if this was a Democratic Administration doing the exact same thing. Why, Rush might even heave his fat butt out of his chair, and move, and Lumpy Hannity would have had a stroke by now! BUT, since it’s a “republican administration”, well, that just makes it ALL fine and dandy, doesn’t it??
I have said this before: “Trump does not lie. He is a sociopath. He says what he thinks is expedient for him at that moment. “Truth” is not even in the equation.” It obviously runs in the family.
I can’t say I am happy to hear about any of this, though it seems sooo predictable in terms of trump. Everything we hear about trump is very disappointing. It is sad to hear people say that others do it so it can’t be wrong.
Trump doesn’t just lie, he crowds out the truth. He isn’t just trying to win the argument, he is trying to dominate it. He wants to drive the coverage of the argument. That is why his response is to smear – he is trying to take back control of the storyline. He doesn’t have to win the argument, or even provide an explanation of his account. His strategy is to crowd out coverage of opposing views by forcing the media to cover his BS. No fair-minded person could look at what is coming out of the White House and see anything of value. Trump isn’t crafting believable lies or arguing his points legibly. He isn’t even good at convincing critics of his alternative facts, He just BSes.
Trump Jr. is just lying, he is not finessing, he just flat out lied about meeting and colluding with Russians for information about Clinton, and to talk about sanctions.
It’s time for the 25th Amendment, but his cabinet and VP are as bad as he is, so we need a revolutionary switch to sanity on the part of a majority of Republican’s in House and Senate to go for Impeachement, a clean sweep at the top actually.
Mike, you do the best caricatures. The facial features and expressions are always spot on – you even managed to get the right mix of arrogance and stupidity on Donny Jr.’s face.
It’s one thing for the Republicans in Congress to keep defending Trump for being stupid, dishonest, and crazy. but you’d think their own survival instincts would kick in if they were asked to defend something that looks like it could be possible treason.
No, little MDAVIS4183, Donnie Junior lies. Even Republicans are (finally) beginning to admit this. I mean, please try to comprehend the concept of objective reality. (You will, I presume, fail, of course, but if you at least TRY we can be oh-so-proud of you.)

I would be much happier if “not getting caught” was not such a large part of American politics.
