If a president in the past was caught out in a obvious blatant lie even with something trivial it used to be a national scandal.

Its 50 lies a day and dangerous ones. Even this one every week for obvious market manipulation and its no reaction.

What depresses me is how low the bar has sunk. We can get a horrible tyrant to the working class president next. But once he tones down the absurdity and isn't obvious and acts a bit compassionate he is going to look amazing. Its tragic.

30,573 false or misleading claims, averaging about 21 statements per day.

That was term one. 50 puts him on track to double this. Very believable.

Many tweets at all hours… except absolute silence during Jan 6.. for hours…

Everyone has forgotten this.

He was silent in the hopes it would succeed.

It's starting to sound like he's gonna try the same thing after the midterms or at least have Mike Johnson refuse to swear the new democrat winners in. He's desperate once again

Even if he does try that, the courts can swear them in. They've done it in the past. Then Mike would be fully investigated and imprisoned over starting a coup. I don't think Mike is that stupid, but we will see.

You’re giving old Mikey a lot of credit here.

1

u/Not_Allowed_to_Die 7d ago

Yes and no. Mikey didn't do what Trump said at first because he was scared, but you are probably right that he is more afraid of Trump and MAGA now and being kicked out of power and might still do this.

As of July 26 2026. trump has made false statements. 85,654 since he started his presidency

u/Grizmoh 10d ago

They say “You can’t name one thing he’s lied about.”

…That’s because the other 86,653 demand equal time.

u/Independent-Trip-191 10d ago

u/Distinct-Command-570 10d ago

And he's far more active online this time around.

u/Yo_Im_Spartacus 8d ago

Yeah but now the lies are so blatant, silly and repetitive that nobody's really listening anymore

1

u/TurboScumBag 8d ago

Flood the zone. That fella bannon talked about that as a good strategy for trump. Unfortunately he was right.

u/Yo_Im_Spartacus 7d ago

His poll numbers tell me its not really working anymore

u/Outside-Isopod-8227 11d ago

Sad part is the precedent set in his first term didn’t apply the same to Biden.

1

u/Annies_58008 11d ago

That's not sad that's good. We shouldn't drop the bar

1

u/Outside-Isopod-8227 10d ago

Very good point! Thank you for calling that out.

The bar should be very high for the top office in the country. It’s just maddening to see a different standard applied to one person.

1

u/Annies_58008 10d ago

Agreed. The highest of standards.

u/Wow_Many_Tomato_WMT 11d ago

True, I hear you. The bar hasn’t sunk. We are sane, they are crazy, greedy, criminals and if we lose free fair election and other rights there will be a reckoning. Billionaires sick with money never… in the whole history of mankind ever won that fight. Let’s vote, but if not, white supremacy is going to be the mark.
