Some will argue that spin and slant are to be expected.  I can't say that isn't true.

But outright lies and exaggerations should be called out.  And this was Trump's MO long before he ever thought about running for POTUS.  

Slants and skews are still lying.  The problem i the sheeple don't recognize rhetoric as lies.  Just because Trumps lies are more obvious to the dumb, doesn't make it any less egregious.  Politicians have been lying for the greater good and for their own benefit for 200+ years.  But *SHOCK* and *AMAZEMENT* now we want to call out the president on it.  Good luck on that front.  Trump won't care.  He's been lying for years, and been called out for it for years.  He just shouts back all the louder with his big mouth, lying more or defaming his critics, and moves out by dismissing them.

Calling out a politician and a known liar on his lying.  lol  Good luck.
