I wouldnt believe Donald Trump if his tongue were notarized.

Alair Townsend, a former deputy mayor in the Koch administration, said that in late 1990's.

Trump's credibility problem goes back decades.
It is NOT new, it is NOT part of any cognitive decline that people are talking about.

Just wanted this on the record.

3. Lifelong Feud: tRump scammed Mayor Koch back in the day.

I always thought Mayor Koch said that.

A Trump Empire Built on Inside Connections and $885 Million in Tax Breaks

Picture shows tRump with Mayor Ed Koch, and New York Gov. Hugh L. Carey, pointing to a rendering of what would become the Gand Hyatt Hotel, in June 1978. A crucial factor behind the hotel’s construction was 40-year tax break that has cost New York City $360 million to date. The way tRump tells it, his first solo project as a real estate developer, the conversion of a faded railroad hotel on 42nd Street into the sleek, 30-story Grand Hyatt, was a triumph from the very beginning.

The hotel, Mr. Trump bragged in “The Art of the Deal,” his 1987 best seller, “was a hit from the first day. Gross operating profits now exceed $30 million a year.” But that book, and numerous interviews over the years, make little mention of a crucial factor in getting the hotel built: an extraordinary 40-year tax break that has cost New York City $360 million to date in forgiven, or uncollected, taxes, with four years still to run on a property that cost only $120 million to build in 1980.
