It seems that the Trump administration has a new theme song. No it isn’t the Rolling Stones’ “You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” no matter how much intellectual robbery the candidate Trump used without the band’s consent.
Nope. It’s a golden oldie. If you weren’t around in the 70s you may not remember it.
Liar.
That’s right the old Rod Argent and Russ Ballard — a.k.a. Argent — song as performed by Three Dog Night: “Liar!” The song is a perfect message as to what Trump and his sleazy crew is all about.
Kellyanne Conway, Trump’s counselor, put her bonafides front and center by telling MSNBC’s Chris Matthews that the controversial travel ban signed by Trump last weekend could have stopped the “Bowling Green Massacre.” As it turned out, the “massacre” was stopped because there wasn’t a massacre in Bowling Green, Ky. Conway made the whole thing up. She later made a correction saying she meant to say Bowling Green terrorists. Yes, there certainly is a lot of difference there.
“Liar, Liar, Liar!”
This happened only a week after White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer ginned up some fake ire when lying into the press and lying about the attendance at the Inauguration of King Donald of New York.
“Liar, Liar, Liar!”
And Conway took Spicer’s lie and made it even worse by using an totally unbelievable euphemism, “alternative facts,” as Spicer had given the press, feigned outrage and all.
Spicer can’t help himself though. He is the biggest lying sack of shit to grace the White House and he certainly is among a treasured history. Spicer’s latest whopper was his telling reporters that the Iranians had fired upon a Navy ship. Which would have been an act of war. It turns out, he got the Navy part right but the wrong country. The ship belonged to the Saudis.
“Liar, Liar, Liar!”
It seems like the old saying about how you know pols are lying — because their mouths are moving — is a very appropriate description from the Amateur Hour on Pennsylvania Avenue.b
A honest Abe this bunch is not.
