Trump is not lying or telling the truth on many of these issues. This may be why fact check reads his message as lies. How is this so? Trump knows he's going to solve many issues, but he doesn't actually know HOW he's going to accomplish this. Solving major issues of a large country is too complex to KNOW exactly what needs to be done this far in advance. In the meantime, the press and the people want statements of fact...they will only get "filler" to some degree. Have any of you run a business? When there are major issues to be fixed, you may have an idea of how to attack the problem, but you don't have enough information until you actually dive into the problem and consider all the variables/resources. This is why his words come with an element of doubt, but he also knows the problem will get fixed...cause he always has come through in every aspect of his life/business. He may get together with certain brain trust in between a MAJOR CAMPAIGN schedule, but there's only so much time. Remember, he plans on fixing the United States, how could anyone know all the answers at this point? Also remember, Hillary is planning a "status quo" approach to running the country...how complex is that? She means what she says...basically keep things the same. As far as both candidates lying about past scandals/mistakes...they both are guilty. The problem is that Hillary is supposed to be an employee/servant of the people. Too many of her bad deeds have come at the expense of the United States people/taxpayers. Trump is a savvy business man and has manipulated much to his benefit, but his actions haven't directly effected you or I. I've been around business people all my life and they pretty much all bend things in their favor. I consider personal income taxes to be "business" as well. How many of you embellish your taxes? Are all business people unfit to be president? I really doubt Trump is tying to become president to screw the people and for what. He has his own empire already! Hilary has abused her political status in the past will continue to do so as president, this has been the pattern...hasn't it? Words from an INDEPENDENT.
You really believe he's ignorant? Do you think it's that easy to become a billionaire? I don't even think Hillary is ignorant...just incompetent. You do realize that political campaigns are a game. He happens to be the player that almost all persons with any degree of power are against. Because of this, his campaign persona definitely comes across as immature at times. You do realize he's not like this in serious private meetings. I've heard individuals say this isn't the Trump they've met before, therefore, they're on the "fence" about supporting him...confused. Trump was a serious/thoughtful thinker on The Apprentice when he was actually conducting business. Political campaigns are a "PONY SHOW"...that's why he acts like a pony...er...ass... sometimes. Ignorant...I don't think so.
Yes, there is no question that Trump is very ignorant. He knows nothing outside of his little world. He does not read. He thinks global warming is a hoax. Even in his own world he has left a trail of broke promises and bankruptcies. His and others. Nothing he ever says impresses or shows knowledge of the subject, in fact it does the opposite. But he says that he knows more about ISIS than the generals. Yes, he actually said that. It should be clear to any sentient being that Trump is an ignorant egotistical buffoon.
How else can I say this? With Trump, you can't judge a book by it's cover. I agree that he takes the political "pony show" too serious and tries too hard to push buttons with condescension and outrageous comments. Obviously, he's trying to light fires everywhere he can, to see where controversy acquires a following. After all, the odds have been stacked against him from the beginning...he needed an outrageous approach to have a chance. This is why I think "campaigns" can be ridiculous in the first place. For some reason he believes his "New York attitude" of being brash and direct has been necessary. When he says global warming is a hoax, he's commenting on the political/profit push of global warming. There's a lot of people getting rich off global warming...Al Gore and his comrades. I don't understand how an "END" to a business entity should be considered a broken promise. I grew up in a small business and had one as an adult...they both had an "end" to there operation...eventually. Giving employment to people for years is a good thing, even if you have to shut down and let them go...only to rehire and start again. He did say he knows more about ISIS than the generals. He's also clarified his comment by saying he knows more than the generals under Obama and Hillary because they are incompetent...basically constrained by the politics of these two leaders. Don't be fooled by Trump and how he expresses himself, he is a major extrovert and when put in front of an audience, he does what extroverts do...talk before thinking. In private settings this will not be the case. You can't have an empire and be a dumb shit! Futurecurrents...you come across as fairly educated. I think you're having difficulty believing that a person who acts like Trump can have any amount of intelligence. Some of us can be programmed to expect all intelligent people to act like academics, like our professors did in college. A company called United Rentals (public) has big clients who are land developers, many of them come across as "good ole boys" with a rough edge. These people are extremely rich and competitive and if you talk to them in private...extremely wise...about life and business. They remind me of Trump. This is how the business world is... the real world too...all very competitive! Politics is about mastering the facade, this obviously isn't Trump's element...as he is too honest sometimes. It's been good exchanging views with you.

Yes, there is no question that Trump is a YUGE liar and VERY ignorant. That much should be obvious to even right wing sheep like you.
