The New York Times kicked things off this weekend with “A Week of Whoppers From Donald Trump.” The Washington Post followed suit with its own compilation of a week of lies. Today, the Los Angeles Times ups the ante with “Scope of Trump’s Lies Unmatched”:
Donald Trump says that taxes in the United States are higher than almost anywhere else on earth. They’re not. He says he opposed the Iraq war from the start. He didn’t. Now, after years of spreading the lie that President Obama was born in Africa, Trump says that Hillary Clinton did it first (untrue) and that he’s the one who put the controversy to rest (also untrue).
Never in modern presidential politics has a major candidate made false statements as routinely as Trump has.
Gee I wonder what Lester Holt is going to ask Trump about at tomorrow’s debate?
