TextIt is justifications like the OP that give Trump supporters a bad name.
Look. I voted for Trump and I have seen plenty of mis-truths come from his lips. Politicians do it no matter which side of the isle.

I will start with five words... "I will build a wall" so where is this so called wall?
I'm not saying Trump can't keep his word, but he has given people a reason to distrust his judgement. Look at the whole Jerusalem thing, I said that it will start hostilities, and guess what happened? Israel bombs a Palestine depot. Netan yahoo is licking his lips as Donald Dunce continues to lose grey matter because he has no idea what he is doing.
The hostilities are the work of activists and agitators. All he did was move an embassy. Trump is the first pres. who followed through in on that promise.
As for the wall, there’s still time. The appearance of prototypes is a promising sign, though, as you say, they may be the furniture of a grand lie.
Building a physical wall is simply impossible. There is a major river involved. He either knowingly made a promise he cannot keep, or he did not understand the nature of the problem he was trying to address. In fairness, I think it was the latter. He may be a compulsive liar, but he is also ignorant.

Out of curiosity, why would you think this would matter? They condemn us for all sorts of stuff all the time. I think they are rather bearish on our move towards legalizing MJ, too (unless the winds have changed).
So what?

Its the UN. What real relevance does the UN have?

To be honest, the reason I don't like Trump is because he's wrongfully smug, arrogant
This about sums it up for me. I am a rather humble man, and am put off by smug arrogance (although my personality makes me more bemused with it, like a cat wanting to play with a mouse).
If the loud roar of nonsense against Trump wasn't more off putting, i'd be railing against him daily here. The topic of this thread is a good example. Lies that matter to me are the ones that involve enacting sweeping legislation or putting us at war. Not crowd size, or matters of opinion.

It gives countries an opportunity to express themselves. They can clarify whether or not they intend to remain allies, for example.
No one is leaving our relationship over this.

So you've got a president who is either ignorant or a liar.
Or both.
I love a bit of honesty, but what you are doing is just picking a side when ultimately both sides are wrong or bad.
If I'm to be honest I have to say either way the US public have screwed up getting Donald Trump in the Whitehouse.
I believe he is ignorant, I know he is a liar.

Then wake up, if Trump is just ignorant then you've got a very dangerous man in the Whitehouse dealing with nations like North Korea in a time that is unprecedented within their history.
