I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

Trump is treating inflation and high prices the way he treated Covid: claiming the numbers are going down.
But like Covid, he can’t lie his way out of this one because everyone is experiencing it. And like Covid it will be his downfall.

Trump: "I don't want to hear about the affordability, because right now we're much less. If you look at energy, we're getting close to $2 a gallon gasoline."

Trump’s voters have become like the members of the administration, delighting in the crassness and obscenity that pours out of the president and his circle whenever they are challenged. But policies suffer and the public is poorly served.

A doctor doesn't schedule an MRI unless he suspects that there is something wrong with you physically.
And a doctor doesn't have you take a Cognitive Test unless he notices cognitive decline.
Neither test is a sign that Donald Trump is in a healthy physical & mental state.

Even if you are leader of the free world, you don’t just get an MRI without a clear reason to do so.
There’s no such thing as a “screening” MRI.

He doesn't care about law. He doesn't care about rules. He doesn't care about the country. He doesn't care about truth. He doesn't care about right or wrong.
He only cares about himself. And most importantly—what he can get away with.

He bulldozed the White House during a government shutdown to build himself a ballroom, then sent a letter to the states saying that SNAP benefits for 42 million people may not go out in November to those who rely on it to eat.
