'A Liar should have a good Memory,' Trump thread cont.

Quotation from Quintillian, I believe (unless someone was fibbing about that too).

Old thread here:

This Tweet thread is worth reading

1/ After 30 years of political, government, advertising, and crisis management experience for politicians, corporations, political parties, PACs (Super and otherwise) and associations I've internalized some hard and fast rules.

That is a great twitter thread Gump

I'm going to follow RickWilson, he talks sense.

Yes, I love Sally Q. She needs to be back with the DoJ.

'Trump has raged privately in recent days that both the forces of government and the media are trying to undermine him. That includes trumped-up charges against his former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, and distorting the outcome of the Helsinki summit to make it appear he was beholden to Russia, according to two Republicans close to the White House who were not authorized to discuss private conversations and spoke on condition of anonymity.'

Colbert, daht, daht, daht:

Maybe take your own advice, Trumptoady:

'If you want to earn the respect of all Americans, not the coastal elites in California, San Francisco and New York, maybe try reporting the entire story and getting rid of the bias," Hannity, a staunch supporter of the president, continued. "Maybe examine why people are saying this to us." '

Thanks, mimi. Just to add - Mr Colbert.

Thinking of you all, Across. (Despite the 'uncharted territory' that you're in according to - the Governor?)

(PS - Fires, folks.)

Thanks cozie. For those who are interested:

Keep in mind that there are now 18 active wildfires burning in California alone. I don't know the total number burning over the western US but if you include Alaska, it's well over 100 in various states of containment and size

And in other news: Trump still sucks balls

Big hairy ones, I hear, Across.

"#Trump’s real problem is almost certainly that he can’t lie to Mueller about his conduct or tell him the truth about it."
That's as pithy a description of Trump's challenge in talking to Mueller as you'll find.

"Even as Trump projects feigned confidence in public, feeding his gullible supporters tweets about how the probe is a “witch hunt, the talks between Trump’s lawyers and Mueller’s team betray the opposite, instead revealing obvious fear of what Mueller has learned so far."
@ThePlumLineGS
Here's the real reason Trump's lawyers fear an interview with Mueller.
Trump cannot lie about his obstruction, because there are many witnesses to it.
But Trump cannot tell the truth about it, because that would be incriminating as well.

That was an interesting presser, looking forward to the tweets on it.

There was Coats, Bolton and 2 others answering q's on election meddling. Then SHS. Jim Acosta (CNN) really pushed SHS to say that the Press was NOT the enemy of the people as stated by 45. She got angry and would not say that. In fact, she was probably agreeing with Trump. Not good

I walked out of the end of that briefing because I am totally saddened by what just happened. Sarah Sanders was repeatedly given a chance to say the press is not the enemy and she wouldn't do it. Shameful.
