According to Politfact's study, Trump was completely truthful only about 5% of the time.

Politfact doesn't believe in facts. They need a fact checker intervention.

Trump is a pathological liar. It's almost impossible to keep up with all of his false and ridiculous claims.

Thinking people are well aware of this. Idiots think the man is truthful. Ask yourself: Which one are you?

I know! That's why I admire all the more those people who sit down and quantify/analyze it all.

How much does 'truth' matter anymore when John Q Idiot prances around proclaiming that everything he doesn't agree with is 'fake news' regardless of factual basis? Do you know how many news stories have cluttered my FB news feed claiming that there were multiple shooters in Vegas, and that it just had to be a government conspiracy to take away the guns?

The truth is under attack, and Trump has led the fight against it most recently. It's a scary thing to wrap your mind around when you sit down and think about it.

all politicians lie...Trump is way on the low end for Presidential lying, he's too truthful which gets him into a lot of trouble but he has told his fair share of fibs (wouldn't have been elected if he didn't)

What ? Now you want proof of something. That's a new position. The usual position is to make an accusation and pronounce someone guilty by accusation.

They prove themselves wrong often enough. Prove them right. They don't have the information the president has. Trump has made many statements that outraged people only to be proven right as time passed and new information reviled.
