An independent centrist who served in the Marine Corps and who has voted Republican "way more often in my life than Democrat" gives 26 excellent reasons why liberals (and not-so liberals) are against President Trump. #1: He lies. A LOT.  Politifact rates 69% of the words he speaks as “Mostly False or worse”  Only 17% of the things he says get a “Mostly True” or better rating. That is an absolutely unbelievable number. How he doesn’t speak more truth by mistake is beyond me. To put it in context, Obama’s rating was 26% mostly false or worse, and I had a problem with that. Many of Trump’s former business associates report that he has always been a compulsive liar, but now he’s the President of the United States, and that’s a problem. And this is a man who expects you to believe him when he points at other people and says “They’re lying.”
