Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear; some people just can't recognize sarcasm when it is obvious. A sense of humor seems to be only apparent when someone uses a smiley?...
No, I'm not from Colorado; I'm from California, you know, the state Trump acolytes falsely claim denied Trump a win in the popular vote; it's not our fault Trump is so unpopular (as evidenced by “This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration — period — both in person and around the globe.” - not!)...
No, I don't smoke, neither cigarettes nor anything else; never have and never will. Can you claim likewise, because you appear to have drunk some highly questionable Kool-Aid...
(Note: Smiley added for clarity's sake...)

I refer to my statement towards the previous quote...
However, it
is true Trump and his circle have been engaging in a pattern of deception and mistruth for as long as Trump has been actively campaigning for the Presidency. Time after time, the falsehoods, even over minor issues, uttered and held by Trump, and his associates, has been well documented and, in a great many cases, documented by irrefutable video and audio recordings. So, Trump has been practicing his apparent lack of a grasp on reality long before his "2 days" and this problem doesn't appear to be near a solution anytime in the foreseeable future; the main problem is previously Trump's lies and denials of fact were only the vices of a private citizen; now they are the vices of the President of the United States, and, by the nature of their positions within the government, the likewise vices of Trump's staff and appointees are now official matters of our government; it brings to mind the line by Will Rogers who, when criticized by some members of Congress over his jokes about them and their actions, he noted that when he made a joke about politics and the government, it was just a joke; when Congress made a joke it was law. Unfortunately, for the US, the current joke now resides and the White House and he and his joke acolytes in other in other prominent governing positions are now in the position of making laws happen; somehow, I don't think we're going to like the punchlines...

Makes one wonder: If someone will lie about relatively minor issues, would they hesitate to lie about major, meaningful issues...
As for "new world order", the last major usage of the term was in January, 1991 in a State of the Union speech before a joint session of Congress by... George H. W. Bush. Odd, but I never thought of him as a liberal, much less a Communist; maybe I missed something...
Now, "Would you be so kind to clarify", specifically, why any reasonable, intelligent person should trust or support such a transparently dishonest administration, or is dishonesty only a problem when someone you don't like is in office? Honesty and dishonesty is not fungible; nor are integrity and artifice...
