10. I like this one, because there's little room for interpretation.
A lot of the things she says, you could be outraged at, but it wouldn't matter to one of her fans: she says these things because it appeals to a certain segment of people, and keeps her paid. However, this one right here, unless I'm sorely mistaken, is objectively not true and also shows how much appreciation she has for her audience's intelligence, seeing as she doesn't think they'll know or remember enough rudimentary American history to notice:

Whenever America is threatened from outside, Republicans have a lock on the Oval Office.

Excuse me? World War II? The Cuban missle crisis? Democrats were voted in after these events! So now wait a minute, what is she talking about? The only think I could possibly think of is the Iran hostage crisis, but I hardly think of that as a situation where most people here thought of themselves as being threatened.
