The ‘King of Whopper': Donald Trump
factcheck.org ^ | 12/21/2015 | unknown

Posted on 12/23/2015 9:42:03 AM PST by rktman

It’s been a banner year for political whoppers - and for one teller of tall tales in particular: Donald Trump.

In the 12 years of FactCheck.org's existence, we've never seen his match.

He stands out not only for the sheer number of his factually false claims, but also for his brazen refusals to admit error when proven wrong.

He is by no means the only one telling whoppers, of course. Once again this year there are plenty of politicians, in both parties, who hope voters will swallow their deceptive claims. Hillary Clinton, for one, said she was "transparent" about her use of a private email server, when in fact she wasn't. That was one of the bogus claims she made about her unusual email arrangement while secretary of state

They’ve never seen anyone lie as much as Trump because they’ve never checked as many. There is no way Trump has told more lies that both Clintons, Obama and a bunch of rinos. The rinos lied at every campaign stop in the last election.

Good afternoon. I hope everyone is doing well at your AO.

Ah yes, the endowment to the St. Pete Times. A gift that keeps on giving. Trotsky would be proud.

I used to live near Robyn what’s her face in St. Pete. Like all democrats,Marxist, progressive, socialist that believe Stalin and Mao were just misunderstood and the peasants were ignorant of their brilliance. Blumner, now I remember her name.

If it wasn’t for the U.S. military, she would be wearing a burqa.

I have never trashed Mr. TRUMP; although Senator CRUZ would be my first choice, I have always said that Mister TRUMP is a perfectly acceptable alternative as a candidate.
Mr. TRUMP is a straight talking (and I believe, straight shooter) candidate who recognizes that PC will kill us all.
The media makes a lot of noise about some of the things he says because they have nothing else on him.
He gets their Transi (Transnational Progressive) panties in such a wad; that they have to run to a “Safe Place”, in their view, that is the media and the pundits.

And Bill and Hillary. Sheesh. What we will learn about the Obamas after they leave the White House will make us all puke.

I’d say Barack is in a tough spot.

If his bath-house days are a part of his reality, how does he square that with his Islam reality? How does he square that with the moose?

As for what went on between them, there’s enough to make you lose your lunch.

They missed one -- lying about how much money he has.

According to Forbes Magazine, when he announced his run for the White House, Trump claimed to be worth more than double what Forbes (which tracks many billionaires) had estimated. See "Trump Exaggerating his Net Worth by 100 Percent in Presidential Bid" 06/16/2015 (can't link because Forbes' website won't cooperate, but you can access the article through a google or bing search)

Factcheck.org belongs to the far left Annenberg organization. Not to be confused with Politifact which belongs to the far left Tampa Bay Times. I think they both swear that Hillary!, like George Washington, never told a lie. After all, the word schlong is very hurtful.

Maybe someone should get back to us when some neutral party starts rating the real lies.

You will find that Mooshel is in on it—in a very pervy way. The press knows all about it—but not one peep out of them—FOR 8YEARS!! Amazing how tight lipped they can be when they are protecting their own.
