'He can't just lie his way out of every single box'

As a private businessman, Donald Trump managed to skate past bankruptcies and scandals, but as president he's finding it's harder to contradict his own statements.

Over his decades in real estate, Donald Trump was seemingly able to get away with anything, emerging from each consecutive bankruptcy and scandal ever more famous and with his brand ever more marketable.

As a candidate, he declared he could shoot someone in the middle of New York’s Fifth Avenue and not “lose any voters.”

But as president, Trump is running up against the limits of saying or doing whatever he wants.

The revelation by Rudy Giuliani that his client reimbursed his longtime personal attorney Michael Cohen for a $130,000 hush money payment to porn actress Stormy Daniels contradicted Trump’s own previous denials that he knew anything about the deal—and, despite Giuliani’s intent to tamp down concerns that the October 2016 payment violated campaign finance laws, raised a whole new set of questions about whether Trump failed to disclose a personal loan.

1. 'He can't just lie his way out of every single box'

Apparently he can...I keep holding out hope that someone steps up to inject some sanity into this nut house but so far it’s a lackluster news media and a disengaged congress...we are heading over the cliff with no brakes and no one cares enough to grab the wheel.

4. The "sanity" will come with Mueller and his team..The indictments will come as will the proof

behind the indictments. Trump can say what he wants to say, but the proof will stand above Trump. This ain't some corporate job. This is a different job. Trump is like that amateur who is putting the tile on the floor but he has never done it before. He does it in a way that all the tile on the floor that needs to dry and sit for a while, is backing the tile layer into a corner that he cannot get out of. He put the new tiles down in a way that he cannot get out of, unless he steps on and ruins his work. Picture that one if you can. And Trump has done it all to himself. But we will see...time will tell if he can..." lie his way out of every single box.." I don't think so.

3. Sixty MILLION Americans love him and their love grows the more

crimes he commits.

Or the more crimes he has committed come to light.

He is a white supremacist who hates women and wants to imprison them for not getting permission before having sex.
