Boring, but obviously Trump didn't find any inaccuracies, or he surely would have tweeted about them.

Would Lazy Donnie actually read something of that length in one night even if his life truly depended on it?

This is as obvious of a lie as any he's ever told.

Except the boring part. That is entirely believable, because the book is about Trump. He's repetitive and tiresome, and that would be true even if he wasn't the most reported on person in the world to start with.

Bedsides the fact he can’t read and has never read a 300 page book?

It was about him and he would NEVER say it was boring.

He is is favorite subject. Only subject really that interests him at all

Boring?

Not a word he would ever ascribe to anything about himself.

with his name in it. Woodward's book meets that criteria in spades.

I mean, honestly. I get that the more outrageous the lie, the more Trump and his fans love it, but this one might go too far even for the most frothing of the Trumpies. Read a book? Come on.

Thinking of only using my black and white crayons since Woodward casts so much shade on this imposter President.
