        A trust fund baby who squandered most of his inheritance, taking credit for something someone else did? Surely this can't be possible!

        Sure he's the president of the US, whether individually important or not, each lie validates the next if left unchallenged.

        When Gore said he invented the Internet, did you react the same way? If not, how do you justify the different reactions?

        Total garbage -- Trump is dilutional. He also discovered the law of relativity when he was having a slice of "nice " cake "
