LAKE GENEVA, WI - Donald Trump pointing his stubby finger and screaming that James Comey is going to be indicted for lying is the political equivalent of a fox accusing a chicken of theft. Honestly, it would be hilarious if it weren’t so pathetically transparent.

This is the man who has taken lying and raised it to an art form. Forget Picasso, forget Mozart — Trump is the Rembrandt of falsehoods, the Shakespeare of bullshit. He lies the way most people breathe — automatically and constantly.

Let’s run the tape. It started with the size of his inauguration crowd — a lie so obvious the photographic evidence alone made him look ridiculous, but he doubled down anyway. Then there was the infamous Sharpie-altered hurricane map, a preschool-level stunt to cover up a mistake.

He called his call with Ukraine “perfect,” even as the evidence showed otherwise. And of course, the hush money to Stormy Daniels — first denied, then admitted, then denied again, as if we couldn’t keep track.

His pièce de résistance was the Big Lie itself, the claim that “the election was stolen,” the fattest whopper of them all, one that continues to poison our politics.

And then came his stump tours — the traveling circus of deceit — where he stood in front of adoring crowds and spun fairy tales about jobs magically flooding back, Mexico footing the bill for his wall, and windmills somehow causing cancer. It was pure theater — entertaining for the faithful, maybe — but there wasn’t a shred of truth in it.

Trump doesn’t do rallies. He does improv comedy where the punchline is always a lie.

And let’s not forget, his own fixer — Michael Cohen — went to prison for lying to Congress on Trump’s behalf. Cohen admitted he shaded the truth about Trump Tower Moscow to match Trump’s fairy tale version of events. Why? Because lying is the Trump family crest. It’s the only glue that holds his empire of grift together.

But now, Trump wants us to clutch our pearls because James Comey supposedly “lied.” Please. Coming from him, that’s like Al Capone demanding people pay their taxes on time.

It’s laughable. It’s hypocritical. It’s projection so obvious you could see it from space.

The truth is, Trump can’t survive without lying. It’s his oxygen. It’s his currency. It’s his brand. And yet he still believes he has the moral authority to wag his finger at anyone else.

If irony burned calories, Donald Trump would be thin as a rail.

So forgive me if I don’t take the King of Liars seriously when he pretends to care about “perjury.” The man has lied so much, he could probably perjure himself just ordering a cheeseburger.
