Today's Trump Lie
Yesterday on the O’Reilly Factor, Donald Trump claimed he had spoken to a top guy in the Chicago police and was told that he could stop the violence that has been plaguing Chicago in a week, if given the authority. Trump said, “I went to a top police officer in Chicago who is not the police chief, and he — I could see by the way he was dealing with his people, he was a rough, tough guy, they respected him greatly. I said, how do you think you do it? He said Mr. Trump, within one week we could stop much of this horror show that’s going on.” Unfortunately, today the Chicago police responded by saying, “We’ve discredited this claim months ago. No one in the senior command at CPD has ever met with Donald Trump or a member of his campaign.” So who did Trump talk to? Or is Trump having delusions? Maybe he’s not mentally stable. Does he have a problem with the truth? Questions, questions. Of course, this is par for the course with the Trump campaign. And Republicans are still rallying behind this disaster. History is watching.
