Where do we stand now?

Donald John Trump once told us that he never considered firing special counsel Robert Mueller. I believe he said it a couple of times.

Oh, but here comes The New York Times with a report tonight that not only did the president consider firing Mueller, he actually ordered the firing! White House counsel Donald McGahn said in response that he would quit rather than carry out the order.

The president backed down.

Here we are. The president, according to the NY Times report, has been caught in perhaps the most substantial lie of his presidency.

Trump lied to the public about his intention regarding the special counsel’s probe into collusion with Russian hackers who said they had “dirt” on Hillary Clinton, Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign opponent.

How many more of these lies must we endure?
