Blatant Lies
There are numerous databases listing all the lies of Trump. It may be accurate to say that he tells multiple lies in every speech. No previous President is close to the number of blatant lies told by Trump, nor even the number of slight mis-truths.

Some articles linking to lies
- 2025.7.20 - Mike Johnson VERY BLATANT LIE claiming Trump has a 90% approval rating. Embarrasing for CNBC that they didn’t immediately report the blatant lie.
- 2025.7.16 - Clearly Trump doesn’t want the Epstein files released because he is in them and is already preparing to call anything that mentions him in the files as lies
- 2025.7.7 - Trump’s team very specifically says they have the list of Jeffrey Epstein’s clients, then a month later says there is no list. A very blatant lie to cover up Trump’s involvement.

- 2025.4.29 Lies like this are intended to feed the Maga base: This recent move drew severe criticism from Trump’s administration. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated: “This is a hostile and political act by Amazon. Why didn’t Amazon do this when the Biden admin hiked inflation to the highest level in 40 years?” She also declined to comment on the president’s relationship with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos but reiterated, “This is certainly a hostile and political action by Amazon.”
The answer is because the % of inflation varied by every product and is not directly attributable to any specific thing.
2025.7.24 A list of many lies Trump made to his MAGA base
2016 - Trump lied when he said that Barack Obama wasn’t born in the United States.
2024 - Trump lied when he said he wanted to clean up the swamp in Washington. Instead he did the opposite. He fired all the people loyal to the United States Constitution and replaced them with people whose first loyalty is to Trump.
Republican Myths
The problem, of course, is that reality has a well-known leftwing bias. That’s because reality, unlike rightwing ideology, is rooted in facts. For example:
Trickle-down economics has never helped the working class; it’s a scam to transfer wealth to the rich.
Immigrants are not more likely to commit crimes; they’re less likely.
Late-term abortions are rare and almost always involve severe fetal abnormalities or risks to the mother; women don’t “love getting abortions” or do so with little thought.
Unions raise wages and reduce inequality; they don’t “steal from workers.”
Climate change is real and accelerating, and fossil fuel companies and Republicans have known it — and spent billions to cover it up — for decades.
Renewable energy is cheaper than coal, gas, or oil in most of the world.
People on public assistance are usually not “lazy” but are either disabled, working or actively seeking work, or living in areas where there is no work.
Raising the minimum wage doesn’t increase unemployment; it boosts the economy which increases employment.
Universal healthcare works in every other developed nation; it’s not “impossible” to implement here in America.
The U.S. was not founded as a Christian nation, but as a secular republic.
