Left: trumps ear debating Biden before he was shot at

Right: trumps ear debating Harris after he was shot at

Any difference other than aging???

Fact-checking convicted felon Donald Trump is a never-ending task. As long as he's alive, he's going to lie.

It was determined that he lied 30,573 times during his presidency; that amounts to over 20.92 lies per day.

Washington Post counts 30,573 false or misleading claims in four years by Trump

He's probably told even more than that since leaving office.

His post-presidency lies broadly have to do with him being a poor loser. There are his lies about failing to get re-elected and now he's lying about his conviction on 34 felony counts last Thursday.

The most ridiculous and blatantly false claim about his trial is that he wasn't allowed to testify.

Trump has previously railed about being silenced and falsely claimed he was not allowed to testify at the trial. But ultimately he made the personal choice to not take the stand in his own defense. Merchan earlier this month addressed the ex-president’s claims, saying: “I want to stress, Mr Trump, that you have an absolute right to testify at trial.” Merchan added that the gag order preventing Trump from verbally attacking witnesses did not affect his right to take the stand.

Trump could have testified if he wanted to. His defense attorneys called only two witnesses – one technical witness and another who did the case no good by acting like a dick to Judge Merchan. The prosecution would have LOVED to cross examine Trump.

With the Trump cult, truth doesn't matter. Confronting them with facts is a futile gesture.

But there is that very small grouping of undecided voters who might be persuaded by reality. So fact-checking may have some use.

The broadest lesson from this trial that might nudge a few minds is that even presidents are not above the law.

Donald Trump’s lies hurt innocent people.

Trump lies constantly. Anyone who still believes this six year old lie is simply a fool.

Trump repeated the same bullshit lie for FOUR YEARS. Said he would have 'bigger, better' option to Obamacare in two weeks.

GMAFB.

Trump Weird News - Wished I Had A Brain

With the Fact Checkers counting "a total of 30,573 false or misleading claims made by President Trump during his White House tenure" its hard to make the statement that Democrats lie or cheat with a straight face. The Washington Post, January 23, 2021.

Truthful hyperbole’ is a contradiction in terms. It’s a way of saying, ‘It’s a lie, but who cares?’

#TrumpLies

Trump's most obvious lies (like pretending he never led chants of "lock her up) are perhaps the most disturbing.

Telling lies that everyone knows are lies is a classic tactic of dictators to force their followers to side with them over the truth itself.

If this is true then death to him!!

truly the bottom of the barrel,

loser fucking scum.

i really do wish the worst for that man.

[whatareyoureallyafraidof]

I've said it before, I'll say it again; ManChildTrump lies with every breath he can manage to take. He is simply incapable of telling the truth. He is pathological. He lies to (try to) cover lies!
