1. What Idiot Would Believe A Word Trump Says?

I know.

41% of our failing country.....

[StarryNite]

2. tRump is a lying sack of shit!

[Brother Buzz]

3. Michael Steele makes a good point

Although I understand it's not like a DNA cheek swab, but rather, it's a deep, deep nasal swab. Uncomfortable for a brief moment, but nothing to write home about; the orange anus is a wussy.

[BigmanPigman]

4. tRump is even more stupid than I thought since

every TV station has shown the test a zillion times. He spends half his life watching TV and the other half golfing, you'd think he'd picked up how they test by now. Even I knew how it was done. Even my dog knows how it is done. "Woof" (translation: Yes mom, I do).

HE IS A LIAR! Repeat that 1 million times. He is a liar, he is a liar, he is a liar,.....

[Brainfodder]

5. If it's a question with really just a yes or no answer, and they give anything NOT yes or no?

They are dodging it, and find out why, every time, find out why.

I sometimes think I am watching a play called: Buffoons

Why?

Because these guys have me believing they are complete and total buffoons, but Blob totally over sells it, every day.

6. I hear they take that "little" swab up both side of nostrils pretty high to swab and

then pretty far down the back of the throat on two sides. I was listening to a man describe it today and he said wasn't very comfortable.

[Marcuse]

10. Seems like such an experience would be hard to forget. Maybe he was under anesthesia.

[LizBeth]

12. Ya well, he lies. Who knows if he took the test or not. He lies.

[Windy City Charlie]

14. That's what Charles Barkley said

Charles Barkley was on TNT last Thursday night, saying he got tested and he swabs in his nostrils was one of the most uncomfortable things he's ever felt.

[renate]

17. Surely Trump wouldn't lie

About something that’s impossible to verify. Surely not.

[Dem2theMax]

15. I've had that swab up my nose,

I can't remember what it was for. But I will never forget how bad it hurt. He didn't have the test. He'd actually be able to describe it if he had it.

[Hortensis]

24. Unusually, I actually find Trump's "nothing comfortable about it"

credible. It's the truth and suggested our Nutcase in Chief was having a rare moment of knowing what he was talking about.

[Yavin4]

7. Maybe the doctor stuck it up Trump's ass.

Doc was tired of Trump's b.s.

[milestogo]

9. Well it is pretty hard to tell his face from his ass.

[Pachamama]

27. +1000

[mr_lebowski]

8. Its also possible his ego won't let him describe it ...

He's such a highly defective person it's hard to draw any real conclusions from this evasion.

He may have taken it but is too proud to discuss what was done to him in the process.

If someone asked him what getting his last colonoscopy was like, do you think he'd go into detail about how a camera was put up his butt? I rather doubt it.

Or he could be lying about taking the test ... no way to know for sure.

[smirkymonkey]

11. Of course he lies.

What else could we expect?

13. They don't make 'em like LBJ anymore.

Here, the former POTUS pulls up his shirt to show reporters the big scar from his recent gallbladder surgery:

16. I remember that, but this is image I remember best

[Tanuki]

21. And then there was Mad Magazine's take on it:

[calimary]

32. Love it! Where's Mad magazine now, when we need it?

It almost feels like we ARE Mad magazine now.

This is very surreal.

18. I bet after they pulled the swab from his nose, the swab jumped up and danced.

[joewalters]

19. No one believed he did.

No one believed he did. Absolutely no one believes WH doctors. They have zero credibility.

23. Well, 30% Believe Everything It Says

The cult is still the cult.
And, welcome to DU!

33. Cults gotta act all cultish.

[Grammy23]

20. He never ever takes the opportunity to be a good example to the people.

All he had to do was say he had the test and let it go at that. He needs to model the behavior that they want citizens to follow. Explain that it involves swabbing the inside of the nose. It IS a long Qtip so it will not be fun but he doesn’t have to go into details..... Not if he wants to encourage people who need testing to come forward.

22. I think the give away came from Don the Con himself

We were told he tested negative early on Saturday and he said that the results came back in 24 hours. That gap is more than 12 hours.

[nuxvomica]

26. Another giveaway: they added he was symptom-free

In the official WH statement, they said he tested negative yet somehow felt the need to add that he had been symptom-free since his meeting with Bolsonaro. That's something you usually say when someone tests positive. Maybe by "negative" they meant, he didn't test at all.

[malaise]

28. Good spot

[no_hypocrisy]

25. Trump's afraid to find out he has the virus.

Well-known germaphobe.

[kentuck]

29. He would lose credibility if it was discovered he lied...

...about his test.

[gibraltar72]

30. Always a safe bet as Trump lies about everything.

[calimary]

31. Hah! Man, bullshit if ever I heard any. That's some fancy tap-dancing there donald

[UTUSN]

35. Re-kick!1

[gratuitous]

36. Is Trump, at long last, losing credibility?

It seems that every day, heck every hour, Trump's credibility is topped off, and everything he says is gospel even if it's directly contradictory to what he just said. Make that every minute Trump is restored to full credibility.

Maybe having a pathological liar is a bad idea, even if his army of toadies and sycophants give him full marks for his every utterance? Nobody could have known!

[zackymilly]

37. I thought the same thing when I heard him answer the question.

If you're going to lie about being tested, at least learn what the test involves so you don't get ratted out.

[zackymilly]

38. Someone should have then asked, "So you didn't like the anal probe?" n/t
