More Massive Lies

On May 21, 2015, Donald Trump gave an interview to a conservative media outlet where he said (source here): "I’m not going to cut Social Security like every other Republican and I’m not going to cut Medicare or Medicaid. Every other Republican is going to cut, and even if they wouldn’t, they don’t know what to do because they don’t know where the money is. I do."

He went on to make the same promises. At least thirteen more times, as was documented recently by Bernie Sanders' office (source here).

Flash forward to yesterday. Trump released his first budget to Congress, which includes more than $1.4 trillion in cuts to Medicaid (source here).

His budget proposal also includes hundreds of billions in cuts to Social Security disability insurance (source here).

So he promised at least fourteen times he would make no cuts.

And yesterday he proposed massive cuts that he promised he would never make.

He lied to the American people. Over and over again, doubling down on those lies. At least fourteen times.

And yet we're still supposed to believe his promises to the LGBT community?

  2. The most hilarious and almost funny thing is that when «Trumpty Dumpty» hosted Australian Prime Minister, he said GOOD words about Australian healthcare telling that it was the best in the world.

    Again "HE" was speaking without really knowing that in Australia, as here in Canada, we have «UNIVERSAL» healthcare system that is managed by our Ministry of Health and ISN'T in the hands of «commercial» insurance companies who are making MONEY on the back of poor people.

    As I always tell you, as long as MONEY and BIG INSURANCE COMPANIES are in the center of your healthcare and Medicare management, LOT of people will not be covered because THEY aren't PAYING enough for those SHARK money makers.

    The same for LGBT rights: stop thinking that «GAY MARRIAGE» is possible in such a religious country as yours.
    Here, we have «SAME SEX UNIONS» that gives us same civil rights as straight couples and we've excluded any religious marriage.
    In that manner, our gay married couple can benefit of EVERY rights than any other «normal» couple.

    Forgot to point out that whatever the province in which you live in Canada, those rights are the SAME and no possibility to be challenged by some religious weirdo....
