Wait a sec... I thought trump bragged about how good his memory is.

Yep, a GMOAT, which is why it's so difficult for him to remember - because if he had a less perfect memory, he'd only remember the last version he said :boggled:

"...our recollection keeps changing..."

Good grief.

On the one hand, goof grief is right!

On the other hand, as skeptics do we not often point out the malleability of human memory? Recollections do in fact change. So on its face the statement isn’t wrong, per sé.

Of course, in this case it is almost certainly “motivated change” - IOW, changing and fabricating stories as they go along to fit a desired narrative. Or “lying” in the common vernacular!

Really? You're going to waste our time with this irrelevant bit of unrelated neurobiology? :rolleyes:

Given the number of things they denied happened and then had to admit did happen, this seems like an understatement.

I think the second paragraph in his post provides some context to what he intended to say.!

I understand that. But the fact we all have false memories about the past has absolutely nothing to do with the situation we are discussing and it was an absurdly pedantic post.

More details.

The only reason I can see for this guy running when asked questions about connections to Trump is tax evasion and money laundering, just like Manafort. It's almost a sure bet Trump has been laundering money and evading taxes himself and possibly the rest of the Trump family too.

Well, I'm pretty sure Barron wasn't doing any money laundering, so you can't say it was the ENTIRE trump family.

I wonder if there is some sort of "right of passage" for members of the Trump family, kind of like a Bar Mitzva. "Congratulations. You laundered your first million. You are now a man!"
