I just read this article on President-Elect Trump's first press conference and have concluded that Mr. Trump continues to lie, inflate the truth, make half-truths or semi-truths and rarely is able to speak the truth without embellishing it in some way.
I only read the transcript, I didn't actually hear him speaking, but his speaking style is very unclear. He makes many claims and assertions and then partially, or sometimes completely, rolls them back. He doesn't always answer the same question the same way, which is a bit disconcerting, because over the course of an hour or less, that facts, or even his opinions on the topics he's discussing shouldn't change.
It's almost as if he's having a conversation with himself inside of his head, except that he's speaking out loud. And this isn't just in his car! He's speaking to reporters from all of the major news organizations across the world. So, you could say that he's exposing his very back-and-forth, maybe-this or maybe-that, or maybe-not-at-all kind of speaking to the entire planet.
