I will respond any way I like. And I wasn't defending Trump. I was pointing out the hypocrisy of the OP. If that bothers you, tough.

The complete list of all 80 false things Donald Trump has said in his first 4 weeks as president...

https://www.thestar.com/news/world/2017/02/03/daniel-dales-donald-trump-fact-check-updates.html

True story or fake news?
Here's a couple...

"I guess it was the biggest electoral college win since Ronald Reagan.”

In fact: George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama all earned bigger margins in the electoral college than Trump did.

“Now, when WikiLeaks, which I had nothing to do with, comes out and happens to give, they’re not giving classified information.”

In fact: The organization made its name releasing hundreds of thousands of pages of classified U.S. material.

“California in many ways is out of control, as you know. Obviously the voters agree, otherwise they wouldn’t have voted for me.”

In fact: It is hard to fact-check nonsense, but this is nonsensical. California governance was not one of the subjects debated during the national campaign, and not even pro-Trump pundits argued that his victory was a reaction against California. Further, Trump was trounced in California voting: 62 per cent for Hillary Clinton to his own 32 per cent.

I haven't done the math recently, but I wonder if the complete sum of Obama's lies would even fill up even one week of Trump's lies. I could accept that Clinton may have filled up to 2, maybe 2.5 weeks of Trump's lies.

Is politifact even still cataloguing Trump's lies? If so, do you suppose they're going through some sort of existential crisis at the Politifact offices?

Alright, I'm back. According to politifact, the sum total of Clinton's analyzed statements make for a total of 76 statements that fall into the mostly false, false and pants-on-fire categories. That means Trump has made more falsehoods in a single month than Clinton has made over the course of her entire career.

USA! USA! USA!

What's the diff?

If you say false things you are telling lies.

Did it ever occur to you that there is a reason why we have two different words in the dictionary? They have two different definitions. Kudos to the OP for not telling yet another liberal lie.

The Don has set a new low with his attacks on the press, very Nixon like, his delusions, and outright lies require a mental eval.

Not delusions. The press hasn't been trusted to tell the truth and be honest for quite some time now. Don't keep up much on things do you? Here's a link from before the primaries even started:

For some reason when Trump says the very same thing that the public has already said, the left attacks him for it. I wonder why?
