Only the best people.
I like Attorney Generals who arenât confirmed by the Senate.
No it tells us that some people donât read too carefully.
Trump scammed thousands of people out of their hard earned money with Trump University, so I can see why Trump would think another scammer was a good guy.

In case you hadnât noticed, heâs not the most articulate guy around.
That doesnât mean you get to decide meant something totally different than what he said.

It means I can see the blatant self-contradiction in his statement and realize he canât logically have meant it to mean he never heard of him.
JayJay: zantax: dubarry20833:Whatâs worst, that he picked guy to be the acting attorney general who he doesnât know, or lying (we have the proof) that he doesnât know him?
Meh reading what he said it sounds more like he was saying he didnât know him before he came to work at the DOJ.
NoâŚhe said âI DONâT (present tense) know Matt Whittakerâ.
In case you hadnât noticed, heâs not the most articulate guy around.
So weâre going with that now?
OK.
Of course he could have meant it. He lies constantly. Why wouldnât you assume heâs just continuing to lie about this as he does nearly everything else?
You give him too much benefit of the doubt, which he has clearly not earned.

UmâŚnot knowing someone is not the same thing as never having heard of him.
Youâre really reaching today.

There are quite a few meanings to the word âknowâ, mostly revolving around how well you know someone. If I see a guy in a few business meetings, do I âknow himâ?
Airyaman:Trump doubling down on his liesâŚ

This does read as him doubling down on a lie, but there is something in there that caught my eye⌠when he mentioned âno social contractâ. Very odd thing to put in there and in a very odd way. Makes me believe they talked about Mueller and Whitakerâs possible recusal and Trump not explicitly asking, but them coming to an understanding. Iâm guessing weâre going to have some interesting House hearings about this appointment in a few months.
Itâs been documented that he has met multiple times with Whitaker in the Oval Office. So, repeated business contact but not social contact.
Trump always does this. Throws in some irrelevant but marginally related âfactâ to add what he thinks looks like verisimilitude to an outright lie.
His fans not only buy it, they will end up defending it.

It didnât seem to upset Democrats that Obama knew Holder, they met in 2004 and in Holderâs own words, âjust clickedâ.

Nobody would care if Trump knew Whitaker. That is not a complaint here at all. Are you trying to create a new strawman?

Remember when Obama was denying he knew Holder?
Yeah, neither do I.
Until then that pint you raised is irrelevant, just like âno social contact.â
Many once-conservatives now Trumpists have learned well from their master.

Someone obviously cared enough to ask.

Trump loves the veterans, hires the right guy!

Whitaker like Trump likes heroes that werenât captured. That makes it too hard to rob them.
Youâre deliberately missing the point. Yesterday, he said he doesnât know him. A month ago, he literally said he words that he knows him.

I think you are being a little unfair. Maybe if he had an established pattern of arguing that words have specific meaningsâŚ
