Trump, "I never lie." Then "things were said." and "I didn't do them."

The "I never lie" phrase was one he used earlier this year.

Last night he avoided directly confessing his lie by saying "things were said." then when Anderson Cooper pushed him, he claimed he did not do those things.

Why didn't anyone question him on lying?

The audience laughed at him when he talked about honesty.

If you're old enough to have ever been a fan of the old Firesign Theatre comedy records......
Politician George Tirebiter proclaimed......

"And you can believe that....
Because I never lie....
And I'm ALWAYS right"

When Cooper pressed him & finally got him to day no when asked if he ever did the things he said, the camera was on Hillary & she had the slightest smile cross her face.

“We tried to [meet in pairs] with Donald always if we could because Donald says certain things and then has a lack of memory,” he says in the deposition."


Since his memory is no good, one can only wonder just how much crap he's said that's out there on tape. I doubt he remembers this promise to be a better man tomorrow or any other day.
