So Trump Lied to the DoJ. So What?

All of a sudden, everyone’s so shocked and surprised that Donald Trump said something he wasn’t supposed to say.

I’m referring, of course, to the interview Trump did with Brett Baier on Monday night, when he admitted to withholding documents even after receiving a DOJ subpoena covering stuff that should have been turned over to the DOJ or the National Archives when Trump moved out of the White House the day that Joe was sworn in.

This is the reason that Trump is facing an August federal trial on 37 felony charges and now he admits to having done exactly what the indictment says he had done. And Trump claims that Joe is too demented to hold onto the Oval Office after 2024?

Why is anyone shocked or surprised when Trump opens his mouth and out comes a big, verbal turd? Here’s a guy who, according to the Washington Post, made more than 30,000 false or misleading statements during a four-year term. And note, incidentally, that the WaPo only began counting lies and misstatements made by Trump after he was sworn in.

What about everything he said in the seventeen months between when he announced he was running in front of a paid-for-appearing crowd of ‘supporters’ in June 2015 and when he took the oath and then delivered a loony speech filled with half-truths and false promises on January 20, 2017?
