Just the most recent of Trump's lies:

"The baby is born; the mother meets with the doctor. They take care of the baby. They wrap the baby beautifully. Then the doctor & mother determine whether or not they will execute the baby."

There is a quality to these lies that are really unbelievably bold.  Just like Trump's lies about vaccination...so detailed, so personal, like it actually happened to him or that he has seen it, and every word of it completely untrue. 

So many questions, so here is another that will go unanswered:  How can someone lie to you like this and still retain some credibility in your mind?  Or is it that you actually think what Trump is saying here is happening?

Better question is do you think it never happens.

I know of no instance where it has happened.  More to the point, neither does Trump, or he would be talking about it directly. But instead of pointing to a specific instance, he talks about it as though it happens all the time.

he's lying.  And that evidently doesn't bother you one bit because hey, he is restricting the legal rights of asylum seekers to enter the US. 

You do you.
To answer kid's question directly, no it never happens. It is murder in every state, and Trump's intimation that Democrats support it is just further indication of what a fucking asshole he is.

Skipping my question so soon?   I guess it is a little scary....

There is a lot of that going on.

Like apparently many "Americans" in the GOP they truly do not care how degraded our Democracy becomes.  They will happily bend over for Putin and his puppet so long as the wealthy get tax cuts, and the brown people are kept out.

Putin is being dealt with

No he isn't.

And...

Question:  Isn’t it on the beneficiary of Russian interference to come out and say publicly “I don’t want the help, its counter to our democratic interests, and I will in no way use or reference material stolen by Russia, or reward their meddling once in office.”

The POTUS is a useful idiot for American white supremicists, whose presence is growing under his, uh--"leadership":

The president serves as a role model for America's dark side

"They kill babies" has been one of the classic themes of propaganda for centuries, possibly millenia.  Reminds us how entrenched in their beliefs are partisans, that something so low can be somehow fitted into the mindset. 

Re:  Trump as asshole - I checked a medical text and found that an asshole is a useful anatomical feature which rids the system of waste products.  So you're wayyy overrating him.

The GOP kills babies, after they're born, and the POTUS supports the primary organization that defends these needless deaths:The new analysis, done by the University of Michigan, found that 20,360 children died in 2016, the most recent year in which national data was available. More than 12,000 deaths, or 60%,were from injury-related causes. Motor vehicle injuries led the list at 4,074, but firearms injuries were close behind at 3,143 deaths, or 15% of the total deaths among children. https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/20/health/child-gun-deaths-rising/index.html

How many times can you ask this same disingenuous question and be given a substantive answer, then repeat the process, Kiiid?

No. We don't want there to be no guns.

We want there to be a sharply reduced incidence of accidental shootings, suicides by gun, firearms homicides, and mass shootings.

Don't you?!
