It is ok for Trump to lie.., about not being invested in stocks, calling a senator Pocahontas, and accuding the Fed of being a political instrument..
Quote:A few observations about all this: In a normal election cycle, a candidate making an offhand racist remark about a sitting US senator would be a big news story. In a normal election cycle, a candidate making an offhanded lie about the state of his personal finances would be a big news story. To be totally honest, even in a normal election cycle a candidate exhibiting total confusion about the mechanics and merits of monetary policy probably wouldn’t be that big of a news story but it would at least get some attention.Donald Trump gave an interview this morning that should be shocking — but we’re numb - Vox
