Long before there was a possible political motive for making things up about him, they were saying the same things they are now. He was using the same tactics then as he is now. What a coincidence. He just happens to get in hot water all the time, but manages to wiggle out of it. It's not true they say because they have it out against him. Perhaps, but this will tell you why. The movie starts with his younger years and how he lied and exaggerated his way into acquiring properties or interest in properties with no money down. They weren't necessarily big lies, but they fooled investors into thinking they were making a good investment. He lied about having an option to a property in order to get investors when in fact he had no interest in the property. A lot of what you see is a matter of public record.
