So Trump’s continuous lies and exaggerations are nothing really new for him through the years, but now that he really has the spotlight on him, his true character is being revealed by them.
This latest gaff, which may fly under the radar a bit thanks to his other firestorm of attacking the parents of a fallen soldier… really show us a character flaw that - actually - many people have.
While being interviewed by ABC News, Trump was ranting about how the Clinton campaign has “rigged” the debates to coincide with NFL games on two of the three scheduled events. Presumably Trump thinks that NFL fans are more than likely Trump supporters (for the record, I am a rabid NFL fan and would prefer Trump ends up in a bus fire as opposed to the White House :D) That said, while on his Tirade he said he received a letter from the NFL saying “this is ridiculous” referring to the scheduling conflict. Of course the NFL quickly responded to Trump and his hair piece that the NFL in fact did not write him such a letter.
To all Trump supporters out there, surely you know that the NFL would NEVER EVER write such a letter for EITHER campaign as it would LITERALLY alienate something approaching HALF their consumer base. The NFL just like every other consumer facing company will not under any reasonable circumstance make this kind of statement… and would even less so PUT IT IN WRITING. To be fair, this is something most people have done at one time or another… you are angry and you spout off with some form of “evidence” or third party proof to give credit to your claims. However Trump is so arrogant that he will go to the mat saying the NFL did write him because of this character flaw.
The fact remains that Trump will never produce the letter, because it does not exist. Trump will never admit he lied, because his lies are numerous and he never admits any of them. However using even basic logic, 99 percent of America knows that he 100 percent lied and he cannot use the “I was being sarcastic” excuse he used when asking Russia to use espionage on the United States or some similar “grey area” as he often does.
Now maybe you still do not care because you would rather have a lying, arrogant, bad tempered, hateful “1 percenter” six time bankrupt businessman who will not release his taxes because you somehow think that is still better than Hillary, because you somehow think Benghazi was 100 percent her fault (forget the 20 embassy attacks and 66 deaths under Bush because that does not make your case) just do not fool yourself into thinking he is not all of the above.
For the first time ever I may be very thankful for governmental “gridlock” should hell freeze over and Trump win.
