Every word out of Trump’s mouth is a lie, including “a” and “the.”

Is it possible to mentally overdose on lies? In better news, it seems that some state officials are recharging some of the more dangerous pardoned criminals, which is something that Trump can’t do anything about.

Gee, Donald. Sorry to detract from everything being just about you. Next time we'll try to make sure former presidents die at your convenience.

Even Fox News retracted the story. Why is Trump continuing his malicious lies? The terrorist attack in New Orleans was carried out by a Texas born army vet. Not an immigrant. And nothing to do with illegals crossing the border. Trump is a liar.
