I'll cut the shitbag some slack on this one. There's dozens upon dozens of real reasons to mock and hate him without having to nitpick.
It's no different than Obama's "57 states" verbal slip that Republicans wouldn't shut up about. We need to be better than them.

(15,682 posts)Or was he exaggerating the shit out of his false claims about Obamacare?
I honestly think it was the latter, so no, it doesn't make us look petty.
He's an especially simple minded narcissist and liar. Why should we lower our standard for him?

(624 posts)Obama was referring to 57 American states and territories. Did he
make a mistake? a minor one. I cut him some slack there. He was tired from campaigning
and I think he simply forgot to say 'and territories'...
Just FYI...

(29,556 posts)Obama was a good President. The orange buffoon is a national embarrassment and a grifter lining his, his family's and his cronies pockets at our expense. He is also a useful idiot to the Russians he conspired with to get elected.

(50,258 posts)he probably meant 17. Remember just yesterday and the $12 a year for health insurance?

(1,301 posts)It is commonplace with Trump. This is a trend and there is no reason to dismiss it.
Let's just cut him some slack on the exaggerated crowd size at his innaguration. He was really just saying it looked like a whole lot of people from where he was standing.
