More lies and an "extraordinary" immigrant.

Remember how some of these trump bots were saying that trump is really brave because he stopped a mugging in New York City in the early nineties?

Well....

"Donald Trump has been lying for decades about his much-discussed role in a New York City mugging incident, according to a witness who says they were at the scene of the crime.

The New York Daily News recently spoke with 43-year-old Kathleen Romeo-Nunez, who was apparently there to see it all when the attack occurred in 1991.
In no uncertain terms, Romeo-Nunez rubbished Trump’s bravado-laced claim. She said:

He came at the tail end of the event. There was no opportunity.

To hear Trump tell it, one only need confer with the New York Daily News‘ own archives. Under the headline “Mugger’s Trumped” the formerly Trump-friendly tabloid took the future president more or less at his word.

While on the way to see Paula Abdul perform at the Meadowlands in New Jersey, Trump was in a limousine with Marla Maples and two others when the passengers noticed a crime already in progress.

Trump described his version of the event like this, “Someone in the car looked over and said, ‘Gee, look at that, it’s a mugging,’ I said to my driver to stop the car because it was brutal-looking.” Then, he says, he jumped out and confronted the man, who was wailing on someone with a baseball bat. Trump continued:

The guy with the bat looked at me, and I said, ‘Look, you’ve gotta stop this. Put down the bat,’ I guess he recognized me because he said, ‘Mr. Trump, I didn’t do anything wrong.’ I said, ‘How could you not do anything wrong when you’re whacking a guy with a bat?’ Then he ran away.

An anonymous source, alleged to have also witnessed the crime and its abrupt conclusion, verified Trump’s story at the time, noting that the real estate mogul said, “Put that bat down. What are you doing?” before the assailant spoke with Trump and fled.

Not so, said Romeo-Nunez, who was 16-years-old at the time. She described what she saw as she exited a store near midtown Manhattan, “A car pulls up, he gets out, people acknowledge his presence. He’s looking around, seeing what’s going on. Then he got back in and left.”
The incident was never reported to authorities.

As for Trump’s recent claim that he would have personally entered Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida last month, Romeo-Nunez said, “I highly doubt that he would do that.”' [Source]

Finally, it would appear that the First Lady came to this country on an Einstein visa. That means that she is really really smart, and has some special skills that very few native Americans have. *Please stop laughing long enough to read the rest of this.* Anyway, it's hard to understand trump's detestation for immigrants considering how his own wife came to this country.

"How hard was it for the first lady to obtain a visa reserved for immigrants of "extraordinary ability"?
On Thursday, The Washington Post explored the subject in some detail, and questioned whether Melania Trump, then Melania Knauss, was really qualified for a visa through the EB-1 program. The visas, according to the Post, were "designed for renowned academic researchers, multinational business executives or those in other fields, such as Olympic athletes and Oscar-winning actors, who demonstrated 'sustained national and international acclaim.'"

"We called it the Einstein visa," former Rep. Bruce Morrisson, who helped write the bill that created the EB-1 program in 1990, told the Post.

However, according to a lawyer who specializes in obtaining EB-1 and EB-2 visas for her clients, the visas don't just go to the Albert Einsteins of the world. In fact, they're "not that difficult" to obtain, immigration lawyer Merrill R. Cohen told CBS News.

Cohen has helped squash players, a colored-pencil artist, a "classical music whistler," and an "instructor of magicians" get EB-1 visas. Melania Trump never held any of those jobs, but she was a relatively well-known model, in part due to her relationship with President Trump, when she began petitioning the government for an EB-1 in 2000.

In January 2000, for example, she appeared nude and draped in a fur rug on the cover of British GQ. "Sex at 30,000 feet – Melania Knauss earns her air miles," said the headline. She was also a runway model who appeared on a billboard in Times Square and in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. "[Source]

I will say this for Melania, she must have some "extraordinary abilities" to stay married to Donald trump for all these years.
