But the fundamental definition of true makes it true.

true IS the fundamental truth object.

It isn't a "sentence" it is a truth value.

You are just showing you don't actually understand how logic works.

So, you thing truth is just paradoxical or ungrounded?

I guess that throws a wrench in your idea of a universal system to 
determine what is true. If true might not be true, what can we say about 
anything.
