Tell-All Authors Confronted Donald Trump On His Lies And He Replied With 1 Word

Lee Moran; Tue, July 20, 2021

Former President Donald Trump had a surprisingly candid response when challenged over the tens of thousands of lies he told during his time in office, according to the author of a new tell-all book.

“We asked him why, as president, he thought it was OK for him to continually tell the American people things that were not true, to lie again and again and again,” Washington Post journalist Philip Rucker recalled of interviewing Trump on Tuesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”

“And he said to us, ‘You know, there’s a beautiful word, and it’s called disinformation*,’” Rucker said.

Rucker and fellow Post journalist Carol Leonnig sat down with Trump at his private Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, in March for their book documenting the last months of his presidency. The tell-all, titled “‘I Alone Can Fix It’: Donald J. Trump’s Catastrophic Final Year,” was released Tuesday.

When asked why Trump bothered to do the interview, given his attacks on the media in general and the Post in particular, Leonnig suggested that the former president knew he was addicted to the attention.

”It is a sickness in some respects,” she said. “However, I would argue part of the reason he sat with us for so long is because we were eager to hear his explanations ... his narrative of this incredible, consequential and ultimately catastrophic year. We wanted him to have a chance to explain that.”

Trump’s main grievances centered on “how often people around him failed him,” she added. “I think it’s so interesting his narrative is basically that he alone was the brilliant genius and everyone else was an enemy or a weak, paltry stand-in.”

====================
For short, you are TWISTING the facts. The greatest LIAR is Joe Biden, since he entered into public life. It even started before that.

I believe it is a disease that he is a chronic liar for 48-50 years in public life.

Another hypocrisy of Joe Biden is this: He requires all to have v******ted, and again demanding us to be wearing masks because of the new Delta variant. Focus especially to all Republicans, for compliance under his authority.

But on the other hand, Biden is poisoning us, all the American people. How? He opened wide the borders , reversed all the immigration policies of president Trump. Biden allows millions of i*****l a***ns from all over the world, to enter into our land. These i******s bring c***d19 or other variants from their countries. They are not v******ted or immunized.

I saw yesterday and today, tens of thousands of i******s from Africa, and all over the world. These people bring v***ses that poison and k**l our own people.

Biden does not care about us. He demands us to wear masks, but he also allows millions of i******s to infect us with v***s. How stupid is that? He should close all travels from foreign countries if he wants to control the v***s. Instead he opened wide the entrance of these millions of people from around the world.

Jan 30, 2020, president Trump right away closed travels of people from China. then following weeks from Europe, and all countries of the world.

Biden and Pelosi, called president Trump r****t and xenophobic for doing that. President Trump as a result saved lives of hundreds of millions of our own people.

I missed president Trump. He is taking care of all of us. We are just like orphans without a father. And Biden is k*****g us by v***s that his millions of i******s bring into the US.
