As usual, Trump tries to take attention away from his lies by attacking other people. Sad!
Needless to say, there’s a huge difference between an isolated slip of the tongue and ceaseless, shameless, and witless prevarication on virtually all topics, large and small. https://t.co/mvV8cgZLyp

If anyone is wondering what this is about. Once back in 2007/2008 Obama made a slip of the tongue in which he appeared to refer to 57 states. Did Obama think there are 57 states? The reference was pretty clearly to 57 primaries and caucuses which make up the nominating process. https://t.co/ol0yfSwt9f

Obama said "57 states" once. The media mocked him for it. D'oh. Search https://t.co/r4cPwPGphF or https://t.co/4tZDGsn0Uf or https://t.co/BN4FB8V0QS or https://t.co/9nVSz9sBBj for proof. Meanwhile, Trump overwhelms the media with so many crazed statements, we can't even keep up… https://t.co/uOqdYQjeli

It's worth pointing out Obama was including territories that vote in primaries and send delegates to the conventions.
IIRC he actually was off on the total, but he wasn't claiming there were 57 states. https://t.co/ISswHFv0LS— Wanna Scribble (@wannascribble) September 15, 2018
