162 lies and distortions in a news conference. NPR fact checks former President Trump

[C_Clayton_Jones]

“There were a host of false things that Donald Trump said during his hour-long news conference Thursday that have gotten attention.

A glaring example is his helicopter emergency landing story, which has not stood up to scrutiny.

But there was so much more. A team of NPR reporters and editors reviewed the transcript of his news conference and found at least 162 misstatements, exaggerations and outright lies in 64 minutes. That’s more than two a minute. It’s a stunning number for anyone – and even more problematic for a person running to lead the free world.”

“But all politicians lie…”

No, not like Trump – who is unfit to be president as a consequence.

Politicians spin. They fib. They misspeak. They make honest mistakes like the rest of us. And, yes, they even sometimes exaggerate their biographies.

The expectation, though, is that they will treat the truth as something important and correct any errors.

I read those lies. The whopper VP Harris being Czar, what a sad, sick and pathetic lie. She was working on diplomatic solutions. Also, for those who believe use of proper nouns, Czar (Tsar) is Male Noun, Tsarina is the female. When telling a lie, be a bit for honest. Seeking a diplomatic solution is hardly putting her charge of border.

Border crossing under Mr. Biden are down, no matter what lies are spread.

What is needed is a "fact check" of the Democrat Lapdogs at NPR.

Wow, the Harris sycophants and cultists must really be scared trying to deflect from Kammy's 1600 outrageous lies by trying to attack Trump.

we're working with ai specialists who can almost keep up with the lies.

do you, or anyone, have any ideas for displaying them real time? if you can imagine a screen quickly blacking out with text or chryons racing past at evelyn woods speeds.

and most importantly, how do we get people to care?

The people on NPR talk softly and slowly because the people who listen to NPR can’t think very quickly.

I'm not the calling the VP a "Czar", you people. Pushing a lie is exactly that, pushing a lie. She was never in charge of border She was seeking a diplomatic solution, you blew that in being Tzar or should I say Tzarina.

Attack the messenger, not message. Classic deflection. You cannot refute what was reported, so you attack the source. Epic fail.

Actually, I was attacking the recipient. You would have caught on eventually.
