The facts are somewhat different. Now this will get a denial from the trump robots but here are the facts about who the REAL liar is: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/lists/people/comparing-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-truth-o-met/

Crepitus
08-15-2016, 09:41 PM
I don't know. Is he lying about his plans ?? or do you just diagree with them ??

Hell, HE disagrees with them:


1. No Muslims should be allowed to enter the United States —as immigrants or visitors.
Donald Trump called for "a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States" in a statement about "preventing Muslim immigration" in December.
2. Ban Muslims from entering but make an exception for friends and Muslims serving in the US military.
He later amended his stance in an interview with Fox News, saying the 5,000 Muslims serving the United States military would be exempt from the ban and allowed to return home from overseas deployments. He also suggested that current Muslim residents — like his "many Muslim friends" — would be exempt, too, and able to come and go freely.
3. The Muslim ban was just an suggestion.
"We have a serious problem, and it's a temporary ban - it hasn't been called for yet, nobody's done it, this is just a suggestion until we find out what's going on," Trump said on in mid-May, softening for the first time in months on the ban.
4. Ban Muslims as a matter of policy, as well as people from countries with a history of terrorism.
In a national security address after the terror attack in Orlando, Trump said that if he's elected he would "suspend immigration from areas of the world where there's a proven history of terrorism against the United States, Europe or our allies until we fully understand how to end these threats."
5. Ban people from countries with a history of terrorism.
When a reporter asked Trump how he'd feel about a Muslim Scot entering the U.S. while on a trip to visit his golf courses in Scotland, Trump said it "wouldn't bother me." He then went on to emphasize that he did not want "people coming in from the terror countries." When asked, Trump would not name one such country.
6. Ban Muslims from countries with a history of terrorism, and potentially also other Muslims.
That same day, when pressed about how this statement in Scotland jived with Trump's proposal to ban all Muslims from entering the country, spokesman Hope Hicks said that the ban would just apply to Muslims from countries with a history of terrorism. She would not, however, confirm that Muslims residing in peaceful countries would be exempt. NBC News has asked for further clarification.
7. The Muslim ban was never about Muslims.
The next week, one spokesperson wrongly said the initial ban was not about Muslims.
"I know the news media has been reporting that the initial ban was against all Muslims, and that simply was not the case. It's simply for Muslim immigration, and Mr. Trump is adding specifics to clarify what his position is," Katrina Pierson told CNN, though advisers at the time said it was indeed about religion (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/dec/07/donald-trump-campaign-defends-muslim-ban-sam-clovis-interview) exclusively.
8. Nothing has changed, nothing to see here.
"This is not accurate," spokesperson Hope Hicks said when asked if the policies were changing and removing the word "Muslim." "There has been no change from the exchanges over the weekend."
9. The ban is negotiable.
Campaign manager Paul Manafort in late May said the Muslim ban was negotiable, and how Trump initially articulated it was not what it would turn out in the end. Manafort said the policy is currently that "where there is terrorist activity — Syria or Iraq — we will temporarily suspend immigration until we can establish a vetting system in which we can identify who people are who are coming in."
The government already has a rigorous, nine-step vetting (https://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2015/11/20/infographic-screening-process-refugee-entry-united-states)process in place for refugees. Trump has previously included all Syrian refugees, including children and non-Muslims, in the ban.
10. The ban would call for "extreme vetting."
Mid July, Trump told (http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/donald-trump-shifts-muslim-ban-calls-extreme-vetting-n611276) "60 Minutes" that people from suspicious "territories" would receive "a thing called 'extreme vetting.'" He did not describe how "extreme vetting" would differ from the current vetting process.
"Call it whatever you want," Trump told CBS when asked if he was changing his previously released policy.
11. The ban hasn't changed, I just don't like saying the word "Muslim."
On Fox News in late July (https://twitter.com/SopanDeb/status/757819348723433472), Trump told Sean Hannity his position hadn't changed from his initial ban on Muslims entering the country.
"I think my position's gotten bigger, I'm talking about territories now. People don't want me to say Muslim—I guess I'd prefer not saying it, frankly, myself. So we're talking about territories."
Current position: Ban all Muslims, and maybe other people from countries with a history of terrorism, but just don't say "Muslims."


Can you not call at least some of those positions lies? I think you can.

The Trump 'ban all Muslims' quote is intentionally taken out of context. The full in context quote;

This discussion is a trainwreck, because it avoids the truly concerning issue with modern politics and the truth, in favor of partisan bickering.

Here is the real problem: it is impossible for a high-level political executive to perform the duties of their office without lying. I mean that quite literally. National security has become so complex, dirty and globally interwoven that to tell the truth about what you are doing would be to seriously harm your own employees, other people, other governments and yourself. You cannot tell the truth without harming operational security. You cannot tell the truth without destabilizing your own government. You cannot tell the truth without enraging the masses, who don't have the ability to rationally assess your actions (instead relying on reflexive ideological conclusions).

Similarly, it is very difficult to tell the truth while also getting elected. Nobody wants to hear the truth. For instance, many liberals don't want to cut social programs - but they also don't want to raise taxes. So what happens is you get politicians standing up and saying "We won't raise taxes, but we'll continue, maybe even increase, funding for these programs." What ends up happening is they borrow the money... money that will need to be paid back by taxes in the future. Thus, what they are saying is a lie - they are in fact raising taxes, but just in a way that defers costs until a later date. Many conservative politicians do the same thing. They'll talk about how they will reform Social Security, when they know full well that they would be booted from office the moment they touched some Boomer's government pension. It just isn't going to happen. Or they talk about how they'll address abortion - no they won't. They'll moralize about abortion, but they know it is impossible to make it illegal again. Meanwhile the most effective way to decrease abortions is proven to be social programs and sexual education... both of which they oppose!

The number one issue with politicans and lying is not the politicians, it is the voters. We do not want to hear the truth, and we absolutely will punish anyone who tells it (see GWB Sr.'s decision to raise taxes).
