Seven. You don’t seriously believe that he only started lying when he turned twenty, do you?

No, but the number of people who would hear about his lies was a lot smaller, back then.

The height of the people was a lot smaller too. What an awful, gold-plated sandbox that was.

Yeah. As far as I can see from the bios, Trump didn’t help raise any of his children (having divorced the mothers when the kids were still small). Why would he start now?

I think he’s ashamed of Barron. The poor kid has some type of challenge, perhaps autism, and because he isn’t perfect it seems like his dad won’t have anything to do with him. Sad!

We should have a contest as to which of the Trump Tweets is the most dishonest, corrupt and/or distorted in its political commentary by your least favorite President (him). They are all bad. Winner to receive the FAKE NEWS TROPHY!

(How do you quote a post and include the quote within that post? I supplied the tweet myself because I couldn’t figure out how to do it.)

Anyway, CNN’s response:

I’m good with this. But okay: what should the Fake Trophy be made out of?  
Styrofoam? Jell-o? Maybe an ice sculpture…presented at Mar-a-Lago outdoors in the summertime?
