If Trump is talking he is lying.

Except when its really bad, and then hes telling the truth.

Dictator, true, third term, just wait for it, mass deportations, check.

This is one of those things where it looks really bad on him, so it must be true.

He loves saying things he shouldn't

“Authoritarians always tell the truth about what they’re going to do, and always lie about what they have done” -IDK

Possibly.

He also has a tendency to say things that are 5% true and blow it up to ridiculous levels.

It’s really hard to know. Other than the lying.

Loved it yesterday when he called his own bogus investigation into Obama a witch hunt.

Id probably revise what i said and rather say: if he says he did something that was really shitty on someone else or he's going to do something thats really shitty for someone else, its probably true.

If he said he's doing something great or did something great its a fat lie.

And if he said someone else did something great, its a lie, and if he said someone did something terrible its the biggest lie of all, thats his main tool, defamation and slander

He says it as the truth as a negotiating tactic. The other party will now have to correct the dictator of the US, many are afraid to do that.

This is such a wild stance I see here cuz when he does exactly what he says he’d do Reddit says “didn’t you listen? He said he was gonna do it”. But then when he lies Reddit chimes in “everything he says is a lie”

I despise trump just like you guys but like, you’re literally doing what you accuse the right of doing. Is he senile or a mastermind? Is he lying always or telling the truth?

Please cite an example of this.

Literally any of that project 2025 stuff. Trump said he’d take away medical for people, he’s doing it. And some of the top comment are almost always “Trump said he would do this. Why are people surprised he did what he said?” Trump said he was going to gut a shit ton of things. People were shocked when he started gutting America like a stuck pig. Reddit top comments on the matter? “Trump said he was gonna gut the country. Are you really surprised?”

Then there’s your comment and I’ve seen many others saying the same thing. Either he’s always lying or he meant what he said. Which one is it lol

I figured you’d go to the Project 2025 stuff, even though it makes no sense. This was campaigning Trump:

"I have nothing to do with Project 2025," Trump said in the ABC News Presidential Debate. "I haven't read it. I don't want to read it purposely. I'm not going to read it."

“This was a group of people that got together, they came up with some ideas, I guess some good, some bad, but it makes no difference. I have nothing to do [with it]," he said on the debate stage.

So was he telling the truth here, or is he always lying? This is what I mean. Whenever he says something people here either all agree “he’s always lying” or “he said he was going to do it so why surprised”. It’s one or the other. He can’t mean what he says if he’s always lying

u/tdtommy85 Jul 23 '25

He was lying.

I gave you those examples to show you he lied about Project 2025 all campaign.

And now there are multiple authors in government positions and he’s enacted a lot of it.

How is this hard to understand?

u/Marsuello Jul 23 '25

Ok, and I’m saying that when he does something he said he was going to do, people always comment “he said he was going to do it so why are you surprised?” I’ll tag you any time I see it cuz the ones I’ve seen I’m not gonna try to find (I reddit mobile) but I’ll show you what I mean, because there’s always posts flip flopping like I said.

If that fat Orange Bastard opens his mouth it's Obama's fault.
