Donald Trump has threatened to withhold federal disaster aid for wildfire-ravaged Los Angeles unless California leaders change the state's approach on its management of water.
In a Fox News interview, Trump repeated false claims that the state's fish conservation efforts in the northern part of the state are responsible for fire hydrants running dry in urban areas.
"I don't think we should give California anything until they let the water run down," Trump said.

Lie baby, lie.
Premise 1. Eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable.
Premise 2. The best evidence for the Book of Mormon is eyewitness testimony.
Conclusion. Therefore, the best evidence for the Book of Mormon is notoriously unreliable.

I’m always amazed that his sycophantic fan base won’t simply look at a map of the river system in CA, to see that he has no idea what he’s talking about. They’d rather pretend that his lies are valid, simply to score political points in the midst of a natural disaster.

Someone should point our rapey Fraudster in Chief to the following website:

It has long been obvious to anyone paying attention that Trump doesn't care what the truth really is, only what he thinks will persuade the gullible and ill-informed to support him and his self-serving agenda. That's why he says he "loves the poorly educated." That he is a willfully ignorant pathological liar isn't just partisan, Democrat rhetoric, it is an incontrovertible, abundantly and often demonstrated fact!
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Hello All,
Hi Jersey Girl!
Long time since I've started a thread around here.
Me too.
Thought I'd take a crack at this topic. Don't criticize the topic it's the best I can do right now. I'm trying to survive over here. So what are you planning to do on Monday's Inauguration Day? You watching or not?
I didn't watch it, but since a few days have passed, I have seen a few snippets.
But anyway, what are your plans? Do you care? Not care? Will you watch out of a sense of patriotism, historical interest, or support for the incoming? I mean, coming in again, President?
I care about the future of the country - I care about the impact that our elected leaders have on us - I care about who won the recent election - I don't really care about inauguration days (No matter who it is that is being inaugurated).
For me, my total lack of interest has to do with the fact that this will probably be the last inauguration day of my life
I hope this is not the case.
and since I'm disgusted with everything about it, I'm choosing to play ostrich and pretend that it's not even happening. I'll probably spend the day crafting and reading my new Pacino book. I dunno, maybe clean something or repot my plants and praying the power stays on.
Whatever you chose to do on that day, I hope you enjoyed doing it.

Regardless of the damage they do.

Back when he worked in his Father’s business, Donald would sit and lie and lie and lie about the quality of a contractors work in front of them and his Dad (who was in on the ruse) until they would get fed up and agree a discount.

He’s been lying for personal gain his whole life. He isn’t going to change now. What is baffling is that otherwise intelligent people facilitate him.
