Trump calls question about why he 'lied' about COVID-19 a 'disgrace'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

President Trump on Thursday scoffed at a question about why he lied to the American public about the severity of COVID-19 in the early stages of the pandemic, calling it "disgraceful" in a contentious press conference amid fallout over his comments to Bob Woodward.

"Why did you lie to the American people, and why should we trust what you have to say now?" ABC News correspondent Jon Karl asked during a news conference, referencing the president's comments in audio recordings from February that COVID-19 was "deadly" even as he publicly minimized the threat of the virus.

"That's a terrible question and the phraseology," Trump said. "I didn't lie. What I said is we have to be calm. We can't be panicked."

"The way you phrased that is such a disgrace," Trump added. "It's a disgrace to ABC Television Network. It's a disgrace to your employer."

1. If his anus shaped lips are moving he is lying.

He is so artful at it he can probably lie without moving his anus shaped lips.

11. Oh,.. when his lips are moving,... I always thought that was when he was taking a shit.

Especially when his lips get all puckered up,... it looks just like a bowel movement,... it sounds like one too !

12. Diarrhea of the mouth indeed.

14. TrDump is like a laxative for the mind of a progressive individual.

Listen to trDump too long - your brain goes from clear and reasoned thinking to runny, juicy, and drippy sort of thoughts.

Listening to trDump too long is like over dosing on ExLax - ¥our mind gets kind of soupy.

3. Good lord!

I think all of us DUers are mentally aligned. I was just about to write the things the OP did, but all of it was covered.

Folks: we have this, but let us FIGHT FOR EVERY VOTE.

4. There should be a question about resigning every single day

Whether it’s him or Spokesperson Barbie

7. In a sane country he would've been removed from office today by a non-partisan decree.

And, any administrative actions he had taken since March nullified.

However, we're in Hell and the Senate political majority is determined to re-install the taint pimple for at least one more term.

9. That's true

He’d be a social pariah who couldn’t go into public without ridicule and scorn. He’d have to spend his remaining days at the omelette stand at his friends-for-rent golf club. Actually if they had souls they’d have dropped their membership yesterday.

5. And what does RUMP do?

Answers a question about him lying with ANOTHER FUCKING LIE!!

[sheshe2]

6. No, dump.

"The way you phrased that is such a disgrace," Trump added. "It's a disgrace to ABC Television Network. It's a disgrace to your employer."

You are the one that is a disgrace to your employer, that would be us, the American people.
