First, Yes.
Second, why are you changing the subject? Come on, accept the challenge. Has Trump said something that you know he has lied about?

Maybe, but I wasn't asking about exaggeration. But since you bring it up, the president is the president. Everything he says and does is important. Maybe he shouldn't exaggerate? Should't the true facts be enough for any situation?

Well, yes and no.
Let's take something pointless like the size of the inauguration. Of course it doesn't matter to me or you or anyone else, including Trump. It should not matter to Trump. But it seems to, and he made a big deal lying about it.
I, like you, would have just ignored it, but he kept insisting it was the biggest crowd ever. Did that make you wonder about what else he would lie about? It did me.
Now lets talk about something alot more serious. He said Hillary Clinton won the popular vote because of Fraud. Do you not think this is a dangerous thing to say? Does it not undermine the entire democratic voting process, and worry about about the transition of power in 2020 or 2024 when Trump will be replaced?
The peaceful transition of power has been a staple of the US for a long time. No one has ever questioned it or made people question it before.

Forget what others did. Clinton lied, Bush lied, etc. Should someone elses past actions make it OK for Trump to do the same?

No, I promise you that is not what I am trying to do. What I am trying to do is focus on single points.
What alot of people do on GFY is say "Yeah well what about Clinton this and Bengazzi that", etc. This is called "whatbaoutism" and doesn't do anything but cloud the issue. If you went to the bank to get a lone and they asked what your income was last year and you answered "Well my Neighbour made a million dollars", it doesn't answer the question, right?
Sometimes as you suggest, questions are "framed". I am trying to avoid that. I just want to know that as a defender of Trump, do you think or feel or know if he has lied to you. Flat-out lied. Thats all...

Here's the answer: Because they are elitists and think they are smarter than everyone else.

Well, Pelosi and Shumer are government officials, and Anderson Cooper is a reporter, so they could know. And, Don't forget that a host on Fox News also called Sarah Huckabee Sanders out on the same thing.
Peace Brotha!
