Trump's Obsession with "Believe Me"

It's an unconscious communication of his absolute belief in himself as the ultimate, unquestionable authority. Believe me.

BTW, isn't it just so pathetic that so many try to excuse Trump's actions and words by saying that others do it as well. It's like little children saying "Johnny did it too!!!", as if that is some sort of valid excuse.

Last time I heard, we're supposed to be accountable for our own actions, and Trump certainly hasn't arrived at that point.

And then there is the lies from Hillary we were supposed to want to lynch her over. And now that Hillary isn't around, lies are OK because everybody else is doing it. Just like we had to lock up Hillary over her email server, but yet there hasn't really even been calls to swat the wrists of Pence for using a Yahoo email (or whatever very public server) for state business or Trump giving out his private phone number to people.

Name anyone in government that dosent lie to the public.
Name anyone who has never lied to one degree or another.

There is, however, a difference of degree from ordinary lying which 99.999% of people do and a "big lie" which we're seeing now.

Seems the subjectivity over where that particular line is to be drawn makes it pretty much useless other than to evoke feel good feelings.

So I'm guessing any lie from Obama, Hillary, or whomever is not a 'big lie" in comparison to what Trump says, and is therefore regarded as ordinary lying.

Yes along with all the Senators and Congresspeople, governors etc who I rank more or less equal in that regard.
