Inside A Broken Nominee’s Mind: The Four Reasons Why Donald Trump Lies So Much
The four reasons why Donald Trump lies so much go to the heart of who Donald Trump really is; aka, what's wrong with Donald Trump.
1) In his mind. This is how Donald Trump sees the facts, whatever he thinks “in his mind” is real to him:
Trump said his personal math included the intangible value of publicity: The Learning Annex had advertised his speech heavily, and Trump thought that helped his brand. Therefore, in his mind he’d been paid more than $1 million, even though his actual payment was $400,000.
Trump claimed he never said Japan should have nukes, but he did.
2) If he’s wrong it’s someone else’s fault.
Even when Trump is brought round to admit he was wrong, he is never at fault for said wrong. In the deposition, he blamed Meredith McIver, the same person he just recently blamed for his wife’s speech being plagiarized, for a large, misleading mistake about his debt load in a book they “co-wrote” called “How to Get Rich.”
In some cases, Trump acknowledged he was wrong — but not that he was at fault.Instead, he sought to turn the blame on others.
We are now seeing this manifest in the holy trinity of Trump blame: Obama, Clinton, and the media. Trump blamed the media and Hillary Clinton for his own comments suggesting Hillary Clinton should be assassinated if she were to win and thus able to appoint Supreme Court justices.Trump surrogate Trump Jr claimed his father had apologized to the Kahn family, but this isn’t true and Trump is still blaming the media for reporting his attacks on the Gold Star family.
3) Trump treats his “perception” of reality as reality, without any reason for his “perception”:
LAWYER: When you wrote, “O’Brien . . . threatened sources by telling them he can, quote, ‘Settle scores with enemies by writing negative articles about them,’ ” what was the basis for that statement?
TRUMP: Just my perception of him.
I don’t know that he indicated anything like that to me, but I think he probably did indirectly. Just my dealing with him.
This is like Trump’s repeated false claim that President Obama founded ISIS. There is no factual basis for this claim, nor is there any way to make this sort of okay as conservative supporters have tried by saying the troop drawdown that happened under Obama created ISIS.
Not only was that drawdown a part of the SOFA signed by Bush before he left office, but Iraq had a say in it. And no matter what, there is an actual founder of ISIS and it wasn’t George W Bush or President Barack Obama.4) Trump claims things to be factual that he has no reason for thinking.
“What basis do you have for that statement?” Ceresney asked in one case, about an assertion from Trump that O’Brien had been reported to the police for stalking.
“I guess that was probably taken off the Internet,” Trump said.
We saw this when Trump claimed to have seen a video of a U.S. plane dropping off millions to Iran. There is no such video.
So the problem with Donald Trump isn’t even just that he lies so much the entire media can’t keep up with him, even when the task is divided.
The problem with Donald Trump is why he lies.
Donald Trump lies because he doesn’t grasp that there are rules of evidence.
Trump sees reality through the very distorted lens of his feelings and perceptions.
He doesn’t bother to check these against the facts.
Trump presents things as true and doesn’t care to learn if they are, indeed, true.
They are true because he wants them to be.This is what is wrong with Donald Trump, and it goes to his emotional challenges and mental inability to discern fact from fiction.
All of Trump that comes from Trump is grandiose wish fulfillment.
This is the sort of trait we find in tyrants.

Trash is one sicko mother er (as well as wanting to his daughter(s) )
that crowd
Saint Ronny's kids hate him too, just like every other sane person on planet EarthPatti Davis, an actress, author and daughter of former President Ronald Reagan, penned a message to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Wednesday night, calling his recent comments about the Second Amendment “horrifying.”
Davis wrote in a Facebook post that her father had been shot, then went on to scold Trump and remind him that “words matter.”
“Your glib and horrifying comment about ‘Second Amendment people’ was heard around the world,” she wrote. “It was heard by sane and decent people who shudder at your fondness for verbal violence.”
“It was heard by the person sitting alone in a room, locked in his own dark fantasies, who sees unbridled violence as a way to make his mark in the world, and is just looking for ideas,” Davis added.
2nd Amendment People
Does Avante come around here? This is like pedo heaven right there.
Mr. Trump will also do more to protect the LGBT-Q Community than Hillary.
There are rumors that the RNC is going to cut off support from Trump. They have an emergency meeting tomorrow with his campaign.
Implosion intensifies.

You Trash supporters are as ignorant as Trash is.
Already won that one by not inviting biggest lgbt mass murderers dad in history to his speeches
The president signs laws ("the buck stops here") and influences his/her party's legislative agenda. The president can also promote a general culture of inclusiveness and acceptance.
You Trash supporters are as ignorant as Trash is.
Is this news to you? Why do you think every presidential candidate lays out legislation plans? Tax policy, trade deals, etc., etc.,... The president doesn't "make" the laws, but it still matters what he/she thinks because he/she will be guiding the legislative action of his or her party and signing laws.

Where was the media outrage? Imagine if he were at Trump's rally!!!! The LGBT----Q community will be so much better off with Mr. Trump!
your ignorance is deeper and wider than ever.
No LGBTQ protection laws are coming out of a Congress controlled by Repugs who pander to red/slave state Christian Taliban.
He only needs Paul Ryan's support (Wisconsin is not a slave state) and the support of enough republicans combined with democrats. Republicans would never listen to Hillary. GOP must change from the inside. Mr. Trump has already shown a willingness to challenge his own party's conventional beliefs such as on the appropriateness of invading Iraq and the benefits of free trade.
The more I think about it, the more I am convinced the LGBT--------------------------------------------------------------------------Q community will be better off.
Oh, and just so you understand. As a senator, HRC was against legal gay marriage! What a liberal lion!!!
Trump Now Says Claiming Obama and Clinton Were the ‘Founders of ISIS’ Was Just ‘Sarcasm’
http://www.mediaite.com/online/trump...-just-sarcasm/
Of course it was sarcasm! You people are so stupid.
Trump congregation with so many excuses dude had some solid momentum but keeps saying dumb . Maybe Cubes is right ...its just a show to increase his notoriety which will help him business wise.
He already had close to 100% name recognition and business have probably suffered as a result of his run.
He followed up the first mention by repeating it much later. NOT sarcasm.Of course it was sarcasm! You people are so stupid.
He meant very clearly that Hillary/Obama "founded" ISIS by botching the Repug M/E hole by executing the REPUG agreement to withdraw from Iraq.
Trash Says He’d Try Americans At Gitmo. Which Is Illegal.
Donald Trump once again threw legality into the wind, suggesting that Americans could be tried at Guantánamo Bay if he’s president. As the Miami Herald points out,that’s against current U.S. law.
Trump told the Herald on Thursday that it “would be fine” for military tribunals at the infamous detention center to prosecute U.S. citizens suspected of terrorism.
“I know that they want to try them in our regular court systems, and I don’t like that at all,” the GOP presidential nominee said.
You can see his full remarks in the video above.
Trump’s lack of concern for U.S. laws is well do ented.
He has suggested he might pull the U.S. from NAFTA and
said that’d he “open libel laws” to make it easier to sue journalists.
The GOP nominee also may have broken multiple federal election laws.
He’s equally unconcerned about international humanitarian laws.
Most notable are his repeated promises to bring back waterboarding, an act that is widely considered torture.
And, during a GOP debate earlier this year, he even vowed to use torture “a of a lot worse than waterboarding.”
Trump’s also pledged to “take out” the families of suspects ― regardless of their involvement in or knowledge of terror attack plans.
President Barack Obama has acknowledged that the CIA “tortured some folks” in the years after the 9/11 attacks.
But he’s said the so-called “enhanced interrogation techniques” the U.S. used to get information from terrorist suspects “was a mistake” that “crossed the line.”
Editor’s note:
Donald Trump regularly incites political violence
and is a serial liar,
rampant xenophobe,
racist,
misogynist and
birther
who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims ― 1.6 billion members of an entire religion ― from entering the U.S.

Yes, which is why the "founding" claim was sarcasm and not a literal assertion.
Not sarcasm. You Trash fellators are an ignorant, stupid bunch.
I love that this is being fact checked
