He had Trumps Press Secretary, Sarah Huckleberry Sanders, on and asked her if shed promise to always tell the truth the the American people,
to which she replied Yes.
He then asked her about the stories about the Trump campaign and collusion with the Russians,
to which she replied they were made up stories used by the left to excuse Dems losing in 2016.
Stephanopoulos immediately told her You know thats not true!
Her promise to always tell the truth lasted a nano second.

(3,439 posts)But ok George..."you know that's not true " is much better ..than Sarah "that's a lie" " your a liar" "your lying," yet that's not his job that's our job. She lied, they lie.
If we are not direct, call them out on their lies, they won't stop...like Obama tapped trumpf: dems--no he didn't you lie trumpf! Trumpf is a liar! Obama should have SUED trump for defamation, libel! Didn't we just want Obama to say to trumpf your a liar, prove it or shut the f* up--ok not f*, but ok if he did say! "Three (3) million voters committed fraud," said trumpf; dems: trumpf you lie; not say "he made a falsehood" like he made a fart between his nalgas-- you lie! that's a lie! Prove it or shut up!
We approach this lying anarchy cabal "trumpf" with direct talk and immediate lawsuit, if warranted. This when " they go low we go high" sounds ohso nice but it's bullshit!!! It didn't work in 2016, not working now. If we want to win now, 2018, 2020 stop with the niceness, the apologies, the lengthy explanations; we know we care about EVERY American, immigrant and refugee, lgbt community, we care...they don't'! Do I mean be crude and crass? When appropriste yes. Fuck yes! Ok we can lose the f* word, yet ok if warranted.
Then, this is what repubs will say, oh look dems/independants are being mean (and that is our Achilles heel AND THEY KNOW IT because it's our nature is to be kind, helpful, inclusive, respectfull) you can already see the narrative turning, a repositioning; trump said recently that dems are obstructing healthcare bill Huh? Dems? Our response "trumpf you are a liar, you lie ..nope dems had all week to call this man out, call him a liar. Say it 24/7 we want universal healthcare! Say it wih me "Trump is a liar" and if what he says is based on facts, then have him prove it! Under his mean plan, 22 million Americans will lose their healthcare; say it non stop 24/7. Being forceful, bold, aggressive and having ganas( boldness;;crass slang for balls, juevos male genitalia) is not a sin for gods sake, LYING IS for those commandment following hypocrites who are keeping track, bearing false witness is a sin!

(5,815 posts)and straight up lie without any shame. They are capable of both half-truths and bald face lies. Multitalented in the art of deceptions, aren't they. History is not going to be kind to these rat bastards. And it is all on video tape to take into the archives. I kind of hate that at my advanced age I won't be around to see how history treats this period in 50 - 100 years from now.

(5,801 posts)a lot of them think they are acting for Jebus which excuses lying.
Because of course looting the public treasury and taking from the poor is so Christian, as apparently is being the puppet of a bloodsoaked kleptocratic dictator.
