There is a clear difference in quality and quantity of “lying.” All politicians are aware of representation. They choose their words carefully. They spin. It’s part of the job.
I don't mean the usual presidential lies. All presidents lie a little, even the best, often for good reasons. Carter was probably the most truthful president of modern times, and he was voted out. FDR lied to edge us into helping the Allies in WWII.
So I'm talking about Trump and his 22,000 lies. Here's an example.
Rallies Are the Core of Trump’s Campaign, and a Font of Lies and Misinformation
A recent rally in Wisconsin was typical. In 90 minutes, President Trump made 131 false or inaccurate statements.
By Linda Qiu and Michael D. Shear
Over the course of the next 87 minutes, the president made another 130 false or inaccurate statements. Many were entirely made up. Others were casual misstatements of simple facts, some clearly intended to mislead. He lied about his own record and that of his opponent. He made wild exaggerations that violate even the pliable limits of standard political hyperbole...
A detailed examination of his statements in Janesville by The New York Times found that more than three-quarters of the president’s assertions were either false, misleading, exaggerated, disputed or lacked evidence. Less than a quarter were true.

Hilarious-
A liberal talking about lies!
The most substantive parts of the dem campaign was based on three completely false, concocted absurd lies:
"injecting chlorox"
"losers and idiots"
"Russian conspiracy"
Then, when the DNC realized Joe lost the election:
"Hunter has done nothing wrong"
"Russian smear campaign"
"I will say what I will do after the election"
"I wont stop fracking. I will end fossil fuels by 2035"
"The green new deal will create jobs. It will not cost $90 trillion"
"China is not a threat"
"I did not support BLM violence"
"I did not support the 1995 crime bill"
"I will end the corona pandemic"
As far as I know, there have never been any solid accusations against Biden that went to court. Trump, on the other hand, has had many. In fact, I think he may be the only president to have had an on-going court case unrelated to the presidency. I believe he's been involved in about 3,000 lawsuits. That should tell you something right there.
i take offense to anyone being referred to as a pedo unless they have been found guilty of it, or its somehow a fact.
its a horrible sickness/mental disorder that should not be taken lightly and thrown around like the word jerk.
to my knowledge, joe hasnt even been formally, or otherwise, accused of such a thing.
so lets keep it classy and lay off the dementia and pervert mudslinging.
Joe is just terrible candidate all on his own without being called those names.

How is it that this sort of thing only applies to president Trump? Obama, and Biden under Obama and now on his own lie and it doesn't only not mystify you but you vote for these people.
The leftists double standard in this and so many other things are just blatant and amazing.
Nothing good. I man...sure all politicians lie is a common phrase...but...not like this. This is insane next level not in reality nonsense. If we ever get another candidate that does it like this and we accept it, we are doomed as a country.
I agree Trump took it to a new level, like pointing to the sky and saying it's green.
Pretty much one of the big reasons I voted for Biden.
shoot, the TDS is going to mutate into something so viral, so contageous, they will need to self quaranteen for 4 years if our hero trump wins!!!
