I’ve been hearing a lot about Trump’s lies lately, including that reporter that unhinged and asked him about it. Comments on articles are saying there are mounds and mounds of evidence about all his lies. My question, does he have a history of lying? Any big lies that he has been publicly caught in the middle of? Nothing is coming to mind but I haven’t been paying attn as close as I am now. What are the big lies that the libs have so much evidence on?

His lies kept in the same super secret location as all his overt acts of racism we’ve been told about but never shown

This is the type of stuff they find as a lie...

Trump keeps claiming that the most dangerous cities in America are all run by Democrats. They aren’t.

He definitely exaggerates but it is not like he's lying about spying on political opponents or lying about using the IRS to hamstring his political opponents. It's stuff like "the greatest economy ever" and "...like youve never seen before."

Some dumb arse fact checker does the following:

Trump: the sky is blue.

Fact checker: No, it is azure.

MSM: Another lie from the evil orange bastard.

Rinse, repeat X 10,000.

I don’t doubt that Trump has some skeletons in his closet. Everyone does.

But in comparison to the rest of Washington the dude is clean as a whistle.

Probably referring to a lot of statements by Trump that most people recognize as obvious hyperbole. It’s a far cry from lying about one’s GPA, place in his class, professorships, single handily taking down knife wielding gang leaders, etc

Since 2016 the NYT and Wapo have been trying to outdo each other with a 'lie count'. In some cases they sited quotes that Trump never made. They just read it on Twitter. In most cases it was just the NYT not accepting the argument.

IE:
Quote by Trump in 2018: 'Our economy is booming.'
NYT: 'False. Our economy is not booming.'
Therefore, it is lie #12,528.

Trump: "I'm worth 5 billion dollars!"

Actual worth: 4.99 billion.

Media: "Trump's a got dam liar and is bad for our country!"

Their lies liars are comprised of opinions they don’t like, things that are true, exaggerations, and lies of their own.

He does exaggerate. No more than any one of my buddies when we talk. (He's not scripted)

Think about this...He talks/answer's questions in front of the camera more than an other President I've seen for sure.

Combine that with the fact that the media WANTS TO DESTROY HIM....you're bound to find little things to attack him on.

The man is a pathological liar. Look at any fact check site. He just makes shite up out of thin air that has no basis in reality. “Covid won’t be a problem” (it is) “It will go away in the summer” (it didn’t) “We’re doing very well” (we’re not). And those are just the big ones.

It's sort of a 3 pronged statement

#1 You have CNN, WP, and NYT saying this and the Dim's believe it. This coming from 3 sources that all they do is lie

#2 He speaks in a positive salesman exaggeration type of way that they consider to be lies

#3 Trump is using #2 in general terms to get a point across and the Dim's listening are taking it in literal terms and completely miss the underlying point. Therefore it's a lie to them.

Revisiting Trump’s Wiretap Tweets

quote:

In his tweets, the president leveled specific and serious allegations about Obama, accusing the former president of criminal wrongdoing. His allegations were roundly rebutted by people in a position to know, including then-FBI Director James Comey.

In an update to our March 6 story, we noted that Comey on March 20 told the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence that the Department of Justice and the FBI had no information to support Trump’s tweets that the Obama administration wiretapped his phones at Trump Tower. The committee is among those — including special prosecutor Robert S. Mueller III — investigating Russia’s attempt to influence the 2016 presidential election and whether Trump’s campaign associates were aware and involved in Russia’s efforts. (See “Timeline of Russia Investigation” for details of the various investigations.)

“With respect to the president’s tweets about alleged wiretapping directed at him by the prior administration, I have no information that supports those tweets and we have looked carefully inside the FBI,” Comey said. “The Department of Justice has asked me to share with you that the answer is the same for the Department of Justice and all its components. The department has no information that supports those tweets.”

This month, the Department of Justice repeated that statement in a court filing.

Trump is a story teller. Sorry tellers exaggerate for effect and to better communicate meaning.

The left thinks he lies when he exaggerates or states his hopes. Instead of trying to discern what he means, they pick apart every word to see where it is technically inaccurate and then construe inaccuracies as lies.
