In fundraising speech, Trump says he made up facts in meeting with Justin Trudeau - Polidicks

[QUOTE]President Donald Trump boasted in a fundraising speech Wednesday that he made up facts in a meeting with the leader of a top U.S ally, saying he insisted to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that the United States runs a trade deficit with its neighbor to the north without knowing whether or not that was the case. "Trudeau came to see me. He's a good guy, Justin. He said, 'No, no, we have no trade deficit with you, we have none. Donald, please,' " Trump said, mimicking Trudeau, according to audio obtained by The Washington Post. "Nice guy, good-looking guy, comes in - 'Donald we have no trade deficit.' He's very proud because everybody else, you know, we're getting killed. ... "So he's proud. I said, 'Wrong Justin, you do.' I didn't even know. ... I had no idea. I just said, 'You're wrong.' You know why? Because we're so stupid. . . . And I thought they were smart. I said, 'You're wrong Justin.' He said, 'Nope we have no trade deficit.' I said, 'Well in that case I feel differently,' I said, 'but I don't believe it.' I sent one of our guys out, his guy, my guy, they went out, I said 'check because I can't believe it.' 'Well, sir, you're actually right. We have no deficit but that doesn't include energy and timber . . . And when you do, we lose $17 billion a year.' It's incredible."[/QUOTE] Get a load of this guy straight up ADMITTING to being willing to make shit up if he doesn't know the facts to the leader of another country what a fucking idiot [URL="http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/politics/ct-trump-trudeau-20180314-story.html"]This whole article is a fucking ride[/URL] [QUOTE]He said, 'Nope we have no trade deficit.'

He could have not said anything and it would still have the same effect. At least we have it on the books now.

As Adam Savage once said "I reject your reality and substitute my own!" Except this is what Trump actually does.

Practicing for his interview with Mueller I see.

Sometimes he just talks 'off-the-cuff' and you can tell what he means, but this is one of those times when I legitimately can't tell what the fuck he is trying to say

Can we take a second to recognize the fact that it's a "fundraising speech"? Didn't you win already?

I see the dementia is progressing steadily

[QUOTE=Fort83;53203450]That’s kind of the Republican motto, “If the facts don’t agree with us, make up our own!”[/QUOTE] This shit is so beautifully ironic considering the trendy Internet republican motto is "facts don't care about your feelings"

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;53203590]Can we take a second to recognize the fact that it's a "fundraising speech"? Didn't you win already?[/QUOTE] For him it's not about having won, but winning. He's not satisfied with being at the top, he wants to be constantly told "you're at the top and deserve it."

[QUOTE=BuffaloBill;53203433]It never fails to amuse me just how unhinged this guy talks, until I remember he's [u][i]fucking president of the United States[/i][/u].[/QUOTE] but he's leading from his gut! like every mideval monarch did...

[QUOTE=Dave_Parker;53203988] doubling down[/QUOTE] "They almost all do...and that's how I know!" Or he could, y'know, use the [I]unbelievable[/I] wealth of economic and intelligence resources that are at his disposal and probably confirm the deficit down to the dollar, but no, it's because "If others do, Canada must!" I never imagined someone achieving the office of the presidency and being so utterly devoid of intellectual curiosity. Just baffling.

next we're going to hear that trump doesnt even exist and he is made up

The shit he says reminds me of some people on Facebook who post outrageous stories from news outlets nobody's ever heard of.

So in other words, all of our old racist uncles

Basically. Or grandpas. Whatever.
