That’s what I’ve been asking over on X for a few days. Name the lies.

I know President Trump tells some silly stories which are not true, but surely nobody is dumb enough to pay attention to them. One example (just for clarity) is when he jokes about the people sitting behind him being the stars, being discovered and going on to fame. Other than these obvious tales for entertainment, he can’t lie about figures.....they’re on record. Inflation, jobs, unemployment, taxes, tariffs....can’t lie about that stuff.

Chris Matthews said, that Trump said, that illegals are able to get social security benefits, and Medicare etc. Chris Matthews claims that is a lie. That is the only specific example of a claim that Trump lied that I have seen so far.

Agreed....there is a big difference between something that is demonstrably untrue and a simple hyperbole.

Trump is very careful not to lie because he doesn’t want to give them ammo that is why he mocks them about saying he lies at his rallies.He doesn’t want revenge either, Obama is the Vengeful one. A lifetime of evil vengefulness fuels Obama.

Easy to find with a simple search on the internet:

We may not agree with the characterizations, but the "lies" have been documented extensively by multiple outlets.

As was observed a while back - we conservatives take Trump seriously, but not literally.

The Left takes him literally, but not seriously.

They think he is a joke as a political figure, but deem every hyperbolic utterance by him to be some sort of "lie".
