a $25 million fraud claim a few days ago, has a sexual assault case pending, is being investigated for collusion with Russia
to win the election and at the minute he was sworn in he is in violation of the law for his hotel on federal land?
Am I in some kind of alternate universe or something?
Yes you are.

(901 posts)They make statements about how "honest" he is, how "generous," how he "tells it like it is," etc. It's not as if the lies are infrequent and just little "white lies"--the guy lies pathologically and it's super easy to catch him doing it or just making up fake "news," but the Deplorables see the opposite in this atrocious conman. It's just amazing and hard to understand the mass delusion.
