Trump now made 1,057, False Claims

The Washington Post was keeping track 📈 of all the false claims the President, made ever since he took up office.

And somewhere around Aug. 4 or Aug. 5, he broke 1,000 claims, and the tally now stands at 1,057.

At the president’s current pace, he averages nearly five claims a day.

Many are repeats of claims that have been previously debunked. We also include statements that are unacknowledged flip-flops from previously held positions, such as touting new highs in a stock market 📈 that he previously derided as being a “big, fat bubble.”

More than 30 of the president’s misleading statements️ were repeated three or more times. Trump’s most repeated claim, uttered 50 times, was some variation of the statement that the Affordable Care Act is dying and “essentially dead.”

Trump repeatedly takes credit for events or business decisions 👍 that happened before he took the oath of office — or had even been elected.

Forty-two times, he has touted that he secured business investments and jobs that had been previously announced and could easily be found with a Google 🌍 search.
