If his mouth is moving he’s lying.
I would say that excludes him lying when writing or typing, but I'm not sure he's capable of doing so without speaking aloud so it's moot.
I was gonna say that he probably mouths all the words while typing and with a lot of tongue action. Like a child trying to get their crayon starting just so.
"We've always been at war with Eurasia"
Of course he does. He will blatantly lie regardless of the facts.
That's why there were so many billionaires applauding on the victory stage with him. Have you ever seen so many grinning billionaires in one place?
Trump and LLM's both seem to get away with an amazingly juvenile and half assed level of bullshit.
Like, the people who lap this up are on a whole other level of stupid.
No you see, because it isnt a "new" war, because they wanted to do it forever. John McCain was running when "bomb bomb bomb... Bomb, bomb Iran" trended.
So it's all old war. They just hadn't acted on it yet.
Totally not a new war. /s
Bolton was trying to force the Iran war towards the end of the orange kiddie-diddler's first term.
Nobody's confused about it at this point.
He is.
Gotta spin that campaign promise. But hey, he can identify a squirrel.
Well, I haven't been following the news, but Iran is stable; we're not in an occupation fighting the natural political tendencies of an entire populace the way we were in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan... Iran is not a china shop.
