Recently, according to the Washington Post, Donald Trump chalked up his 3,000th false or misleading statement since taking office. That’s 6.5 lies every, single, day. And, no, his loyal supporters don’t care. They just change the word “lies” to “alternative facts.” Problem solved.
But the real scandal isn’t Trump’s lying. The real scandal is that his base takes his lies and passes them on as fact. Fox News generously provides “talking points” for Trump’s followers and, like the good soldiers they are, they spread the word.
Erika Pimper’s letter suggested that Trump should be given credit for our low unemployment and good economy.
