Denial . . .


(from http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2016/jul/06/17-things-donald-trump-said-and-then-denied-saying/)
". . . John McCain is not a war hero . . . "Four times, I said he is a hero," he said on July 19 on ABC.  . . Trump said, "He is a war hero because he was captured." In other words, Trump also cherry-picked his interview and misquoted himself. . .

Calling women ‘fat pigs,’ ‘dogs,’ ‘slobs’ and ‘disgusting animals’. . . at the first GOP presidential debate in August 2015. . . "Well, some of the things that she (Megyn Kelly) said, I didn't say, okay?" Trump said on Meet the Press. . .

Implying China was part of the Trans-Pacific Partnership . . . When asked about the pending trade deal with 12 Pacific Rim nations at a Republican primary debate in Milwaukee, Trump took to bashing China. . . "You know, we might want to point out that China’s not part of this deal," quipped former rival Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. But a day later, Trump denied suggesting China was a signatory. . .

Using a curse word to describe Ted Cruz . .  . Trump denied using "a very bad word" — a synonym for cat — at a rally in Manchester, N.H., and demanded an apology from Bloomberg’s Mark Halperin for suggesting he had done so. . . .(but) There’s video evidence. An audience member called Trump rival Ted Cruz a slur for a woman. Trump repeated the p---- word after telling fans it was a "terrible" word in mock outrage. . .

As Democrats mounted efforts to pass gun control legislation in the wake of the Orlando shooting, Trump brought up the proverbial "good guy with a gun" argument, which goes that mass casualties could have been avoided if one civilian in the club were armed. . . Under scrutiny for his comment, Trump insisted he meant armed security, not clubgoers. . . In an interview on CNN, Trump said armed "people" in general, possibly exercising concealed carry, could have prevented the tragedy, and he ignored a reporter when she pointed out that there was an armed security guard in the club. . .

On having one of the world’s best memories . . . To cap it all, Trump ironically can’t remember bragging about his memory as revealed in his deposition for a Trump University lawsuit. Here’s what he said, according to transcript released in late June:
"Q. You’ve stated though, that you have one of the best memories in the world?
A. I don’t know. Did I use that expression?
Q. Yes.
A. Where? Could I see it?
Q. I can play the video of you reporting it.
A. Did I say I have a great memory or one of the best in the world.
Q. "One of the best in the world" is what the reporter quoted you as saying
A. I don’t remember saying that. As good as my memory is, I don’t remember that, but I have a good memory." . . . "
