A prepared man can fool a polygraph.

Its administration in this instance is an admission of incapacity by that Dog Murderer.

Two questions on the test may be ...

Are you willing to declare loyalty to Pres Trump instead of the Constitution?

Are you willing to declare loyalty to the Constitution?

I mean really, just look at the toady Cabinet appointees. Cannot you see where this administration may be going?

It's a waste of time. There is no such thing as a reliable "lie-detecting" device. It just shows how ignorant and into theatrics the administration is.

Lies, mass layoffs, treason, threats and polygraphs do not engender a good work environment.

When you treat people like crap, don't expect them to remain loyal to you.

A polygraph test is more reliable than the MMR vaccine. And cheaper too!

No it doesn't write itself.

Trumpy and his co-president Mush are writing this nightmare on Pennsylvania Ave.

Expect many more "anonymous sources" if Trumpy and his minions threaten and harass everyone who dare to speak up.

Let's start at the white house.

That would be a big FAIL.

All they need to do is swing by construction sites and they'll be shooting fish in a barrel.
