They like to point out over and over that "trump lies". They said he gave 30+ false statements. For instance, I heard them say it was a lie when he said "groceries have quadrupled in price" ... Is it just me or are they missing the point? Of course he embellishes, but that's not really the point. The point is groceries have sky rocketed under Biden.

To me idgaf if it's really quadrupled or if it's just tripled, I know what he means...its gone up way too much.

Not only that, that Collins girl said that it was a lie that the Police escorted some Jan 6 insurrectionists throughout the building. Ummm there is video of them doing that exact thing with the painted up dude. They just see what they want to see

Steaks have quadrupled. A $12 piece of tenderloin 3 years ago is now $48.

Have you not been paying attention.

Anything said which opposes the Party is a lie, misinformation, or disinformation.

I agree. Honestly it would be better for Trump if he either learned specific numbers or gave more generalized answers. Sometimes he will get rolling on something, make and excellent point, an excellent second point then go really hyperbolic a third or 4th time and that’s when it pushes credibility in the eyes of some. But that’s just him

Trump is not a liar. I do accept him as a bullshitter.

that's all they have. Does Trump fib a little? Sure, but everything he fibs about is actually true

Oh 200,000 bla bla bla - actually should have been 170,000 bla bla bla

The point is that is is actually right on the money - Does he fib a little? Yes, but EVERY politician fibs a little bit about whatever point they are trying to make.

Agreed. Theres a difference between exaggeration and international lying to cover up or mislead.

The CNN website last night had a fact check article and the only fact checking was on Trump statements. Not a single one for Biden.

The facts the checked on Trump statements were wrong but they still called Trump as misinformation.

Because they take Trump literally with every word he says even when he is being hyperbolic.

At the beginning of the debate, a moderator said groceries that were $100 last year are now $120.

Everyone in my house laughed at that foolishness.
