WaPo: Trump Has Lied 10,111 Times In 828 Days

[Soph0571]

The Washington Post reports:

It took President Trump 601 days to top 5,000 false and misleading claims in The Fact Checker’s database, an average of eight claims a day.

But on April 26, just 226 days later, the president crossed the 10,000 mark — an average of nearly 23 claims a day in this seven-month period, which included the many rallies he held before the midterm elections, the partial government shutdown over his promised border wall and the release of the special counsel’s report on Russian interference in the presidential election.

This milestone appeared unlikely when The Fact Checker first started this project during his first 100 days. In the first 100 days, Trump averaged less than five claims a day, which would have added up to about 7,000 claims in a four-year presidential term. But the tsunami of untruths just keeps looming larger and larger.

1. Amy Siskind of the Weekly List, has a podcast. I listen every

week, as much news as I consume lately I have been missing a lot, due to all the chaos.
A couple weeks ago, she said during his first year in office he told an average of 4 lies per day, a couple weeks ago it had jumped to 22.6 lies per day, God only knows what it is now.

2. Habitual liars

and con men used to be shunned and sometimes fined or locked up for lying under oath, slander, etc. I guess that doesn't apply now if you became a multimillionaire when you were still in diapers and have never had to break a sweat or struggle for anything in your entire life of infantile narcissism.
