Trump's Lying More Than Ever - Has Topped 25,000 Lies

Trump is normally an accomplished liar, but he has accelerated his lying during this campaign. Here's how the fact checkers at The Washington Post puts it: 

In 2017, Trump’s first year as president, he averaged six claims a day. That jumped to 16 a day in 2018 and 22 in 2019. So far in 2020, the president has averaged 27 claims a day.

At his current pace, the president will surely exceed 25,000 claims before Election Day. In fact, he probably crossed that threshold this week.

As President Trump entered the final stretch of the election season, he began making more than 50 false or misleading claims a day.
