Republicans sure are attracted to the biggest, boldest liar aren't they? They just can't win with the truth, so they have to make shit up to get their people excited.

The ‘King of Whopper': Donald Trump

It’s been a banner year for political whoppers — and for one teller of tall tales in particular: Donald Trump.
