Trump’s own bankruptcy lawyers say he lies so much they could only meet with him in pairs

Donald Trump’s own bankruptcy lawyers testified that they had a policy of not meeting with the real estate mogul alone because he had a “problem” of constantly lying.

On Tuesday, Buzzfeed published thousands of pages of court filings from three of Trump’s bankruptcies in the 1990s. Twitter user @nycsouthpaw highlighted several pages from the Trump Plaza depositions, which reveal the extraordinary steps Trump’s lawyers took to deal with his tenuous relationship with the truth.

These people believe that anything Trump has done is nothing compared to what Bill and Hillary Clinton have said and done.

I've never seen anyone running for office at any level with the narcissism, the sociopathy, the bald-faced lying in frequency and severity, the immaturity and the ignorance that Trump has displayed during this campaign. And the goobers here are acting like it's all a badge of honor for him to campaign the way he has.

In bankruptcy proceedings, as others, you have to tell the court at lot of facts about your financial situation. For Trump, facts are a fluid.
