Believe me!

I'm not saying that I'm an expert or anything, but I have been in the counseling business for almost two decades. I think I've learned a few things over the years about human psychology and behavior, and I have a few thoughts on the subject, for what they're worth:

1. Anyone who deflects any sort of attention away from his own bad, or suspicious, or unethical, or flat-out disgusting behavior by covering things up or inventing stories about other people or blaming others for his own actions...is a con artist.

2. Anyone who has to constantly tell people how much better he is than everybody else, even inventing "facts" (and possibly actually believing them) to make himself look better...is both incredibly insecure and narcissistic.

3. Anyone who has to say "Believe me!" forcefully, at the end of almost every one of his speeches....is manipulative and dishonest and power-hungry.

4. And, anyone who "utters falsehoods," makes up "alternative facts," and "shouldn't really be taken literally" when he makes explosive and untrue statements...
...is LYING!   LYING!   LYING!

Can we please cut the crap, stop tiptoeing around this, and start calling him what he is -- A LIAR! 

Decent and intelligent people everywhere, from every political party and every media outlet  -- PLEASE stop couching the atrocious, despicable actions and behaviors of this weak and dangerous man in softer, less-confrontational terms. We must speak the truth, because he, and his cronies, sure as hell aren't!

How much longer is this going to be allowed to continue???
