Trump lied that he did not say "shit hole." And he lied about the London Embassy -- the Bush Administration moved it, not Obama. How do you tolerate all this lying and racism?

You are brave to try and get a direct answer to that one in a forum dedicated to the Dexter point of view ('Dexter' is the correct term for modern right-of-center conservatives because it is unhealthy for any mind-set to be always called "Right", particularly if they are already reactionary and nationalistic).
It would be best if you did not hold your breath waiting for a direct and truthful answer however, right from the get-go you are dealing with the modern breed of entitled conservatives who believe that "truthy" is acceptable, that nations should be run like psychopathic corporations, that charity is self-theft and ethics is PR, and that uncomfortable questions mean "Attack!".
Integrity is not good business, and Trump is just the latest in a progression of liars, once he has run his course without any decisive action being taken against him, the lies will be normalized and people will either consciously decide that lying, bullying, and a lack of the qualities once called "decent" are commendable traits in a leader, or they will contort their realities to accommodate massive cognitive dissonances.
I have been wondering for years why immediately after the truth about the Nayirah testimony came out there was not a movement nor even outcry, but then someone made me watch US news and mainstream televised programming for a few hours.
The Declaration of Independence was a nice bit of creative writing, but I don't know if it actually was still relevant even at the dawn of the 20th century, the Truths behind it were possibly still thrashing against the hands that were squeezing the life out of them when the writer of these words was born:
"If you go to any high school today you will a lot of language that is way worst then what Trump said. The fact is there are lots of shit hole counties, that is a true fact.
I tolerated a lot worst for 8 years with the negro trying to kill my country with his immoral schemes to corrupt us. And it still goes on."
There is HOPE, however. If you look closely you can see the TRUTH wriggling through:
" . . . there are lots of shit hole counties, that is a true fact."
(Yep, and some of them had/have horrible educational standards, and require a distinction between "true facts" and the rest)
" . . . with the negro trying to kill my country with his immoral schemes to corrupt us . . . "
(Because the MAN's skin colour is relevant, possibly even being the reason that he couldn't stick to moral schemes to corrupt the US, not like that truthy boy, Trump)
More seriously, Tgards19, if you are going to find whatever was once good and noble about the US, you won't be likely to find it in forums dedicated to either the Dexter or those Sinister Lefties, because self-declared members of either group most likely lost their sense of Union long ago.
