Started, but hit the "'Truthful hyperbole'" bit and that was it. It's a deceitful but sums up Trump perfectly. He's a thug and conman with a carnival barkers knack for snaring their marks.

Was unaware of these articles, now if we could only get reQublicans to learn how to read and not be afraid
of seeking out the truth. Is there a "tiny url" for these links?

As president, Trump frequently made false statements in public speeches and remarks.[145][120][146][147] Trump uttered "at least one false or misleading claim per day on 91 of his first 99 days" in office according to The New York Times,[145] and 1,318 total in his first 263 days in office according to the "Fact Checker" political analysis column of The Washington Post.[148] By the Post's tally, it took Trump 601 days to reach 5,000 false or misleading statements and another 226 days to reach the 10,000 mark.[149] For the seven weeks leading up to the midterm elections, it rose to an average of 30 per day[150] from 4.9 during his first 100 days in office.[151] The Post found that Trump averaged 15 false statements per day during 2018.[8]
