More lies by realdonaldtrump

Lies Lies Lies!!!!!

LPM Lies Per Minute

Is today just another glitch?

Not his first lie. He lies that’s what he does

The worst month ever? Couldn’t possibly be due to the obstructionist Democrats and their promises/threats to undo everything that’s worked for the last 2yrs. Nope! It’s all gotta be Trumps fault.

So is cancer...

Buffoon

realDonaldTrump DUMB DONALD KEEPS US ALL LAUGHING. StephenAtHome

Trump is America’s glitch.

President Donald Glitch

In his dreams. He’s not taking responsibility for his erratic decision making

Possibly true. Stock market losses based on five companies. ?algorithms for buy/sell need revision?

Due to Apple sales dropped !! People are not updating like they did before ,,, really it's not worth it 👍

A 350 glitch

AND THAT 'GLITCH' IS CALLED TRUMP

Ah. That explains it. nothing to do with trade wars, national debt, or an overall sense of omg what’s next?

POTUS Trump is spot on. If you need an explanation I will be glad to provide it.

Because someone who continuously files for bankruptcy is absolutely the right person to trust.... not!

THE GLITCH THAT HE MADE POTUS FAULT

A trade war, a shut down to get tax money pay for his wall, and uncertainty about US role in the world, is not glitch. They are gross mistakes

What is a “glitch”? Can you explain realDonaldTrump? Glitch as in your buddies Putin, Xi, and Kim are hacking the markets and causing chaos just to show you they can? Or computers malfunctioning. A bad algorithm? What’s a glitch?

The glitch has a name Trump...

Glitch!

Yep a glitch named Donald Trump

realDonaldTrump stock markets falling bc of tariffs, the uncertainty of how you run this government- Face it you are a failure and think u can do it alone just like u did your many businesses by taking them under

Well that explains it. Everything is fine.

Ah a “glitch.” Yup that explains it. WTF.

mactavish Donald Trump is a 'Glitch'?

It will be forever known as 'lmpotus' Xmas Glitch'. Nobody could do so much harm better than lmpotus. How to glitch a deal.

Yup. Her name is Nancy Pelosi. The market went to help on election night. Now that Pelosi obviously looks like a clueless fool things are looking better.

The 'glitch'was Trump's election!

A glitch named Trump.....

If by 'trade-deals' he means him trading a plea bargain with Mueller to reduce his and Ivanka's jail term then sure... lets see them trade deals. ImpeachTrump ResignTrump TrumpCrimeFamily

He's a big freaking glitch. ImpeachTrump

That's one word for it.

Glitch!! 😂

Stretching this one. Whoooo!!!!!

The glitch occurred back in November 2016...

I’m starting to think he lies a lot.

No, the Stock Market crash is deliberately being created by the liberal gang on Wall Street to make Trump look bad. They will try to keep it down into the presidential 2020 election. We have a great economy but the elites want Trump out. realDonaldTrump MariaBartiromo

Not true. The market was reacting to the obstructionist Democrats takeover of the House of Representatives. They will do everything they can to destroy Trump, even if it means the destruction of the American economy. They are shutting down the government just to weaken the border

And the glitch was..........Trump. The Trumpetistic glitch is caused by a stupid political leader who has no idea how Wall Street operates.

Didn't think it was possible but trump sounds dumber by the day.

Yes, they traced it back to that day in November 2016 when a glitch in democracy resulted in all kinds of crazy things happening...

The “glitch” is called FakeBoneSpurs DonnyGrifter

not betting on what the moron realDonaldTrump said

Must be the same glitch that said you won the electoral college.

A glitch huh? Is that what a failed presidency is called now?

You must be kidding right A 'glitch' caused many people to lose millions and u can only claim that all this will work out once ur ridiculous trade deals are complete Now who in America can actually believe that Trump's not responsible for sinking Wall Street to record losses?

🙄 ┳┻| ┻┳| ┳┻| ┻┳| ┳┻| ┻┳| ┳┻| ┻┳| ┳┻| ┻┳| ┳┻| ┻┳| ┳┻| _ ┻┳| •.•) He's still not ┳┻|⊂ノ getting a stupid wall. ┻┳|

So rich investors are losing money. Trump's fault. More unemployed broke people are finding jobs. Unemployment is the lowest it's been in decades. Trump's fault. Yet he only cares about rich people? In what alternate reality could that be true?

same glitch that made you President

Is he sure that all the meddling in stock prices he's been doing hasn't just finally reached burst pressure and we are finally entering the recession that actual business fundamentals have been indicating for 10 months?

One Cheeto against the world, selling on paperback near you.

I think he meant the stock market sell-off was due to a 'bitch'

Is the Glitch also green?

Oh thats great. Im really comforted, I find Trump very reassuring! 😩😩

Ah, yes, but the previous months’ gains were all due to him.

With 85% of the stock market now traded by computers, I'd say he aptly described the situation. Nothing has fundamentally changed about the economy or global uncertainties from 6 mos ago.

HE IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT

Trump and the stock market

Trump lies about stock market plunge.

Glitch... naw I blame the fed.

This Presidency is a Huge Glitch!

Can you impeach a 'glitch?' Asking for my 401k.

Dang right.

Trump is a glitch.
