The plane I saw on television was the hostage plane in Geneva, Switzerland, not the plane carrying $400 million in cash going to Iran!
This is just a blatant lie. Easily confirmed as such.

(26,877 posts)Imagine if he received a briefing that required a basic understanding of interpreting a film or photograph. Would he understand it? If he were POTUS in 1962, would he understand what the long, pointy things in Cuba were?

So we probably wouldn't be here having this discussion.

(11,631 posts)That the batshit crazy shit he says to a room full of racist douchebags chanting his name actually gets recorded and everyone in the world will see it and fact check it. His penchant for lying repeatedly in the face of direct video evidence is amazing.

(733 posts)This is why he must never by given classified information. NOt only might he reveal information he received, he can make up information that people will believe came from security briefings.
