TRUMP SHATTERS DISHONESTY RECORD: The president of the United States made 103 — 103 — false claims last week. Fifteen per day. thestar.com/news/world/ana…
Last week was absolutely bonkers for Trump lying. He was averaging 101 false claims per *month*; he just did 103 in a week. His previous record was 60 false claims in a week. thestar.com/news/world/ana…
Trump is now at 1,829 false claims for his presidency. His average is now up to 3.5 per day. It was 2.9 per day at the end of 2017. projects.thestar.com/donald-trump-f…
Yes. The rule is the more he talks the more false claims he makes. especially true with unscripted talking. Last week had two campaign speeches, two roundtables, NFIB speech, Huckabee "interview," Cabinet meeting and more. But still, 103.

Pretty remarkable quote.
Trump said "a number of Democrats" came out this morning and endorsed border security that includes a wall, but the media won't report it because it is "the opposition party." Not personally sure if he is referring to a real thing.
Trump's fuller quote on Mexico paying: "Obviously I never said this, and I never meant, they're going to write out a check. I said they're going to pay for it. They are. They are paying for it with the incredible deal we made with the...USMCA deal. It's a trade deal." 1/2

Off to a strong start! Trump made 78 false claims in the first week of 2019, including 24 at his first press conference of the year and a rally-level 32 at his first Cabinet meeting of the year: thestar.com/news/world/ana…
It was non-fun catching up on five weeks of Trump fact-checking, but he actually had a relatively quiet December by his recent lie-standards: before last week's 78, weeks of 41, 22, 32 and 21 false claims. That was more like his 2017 level. (He didn't do as many speaking events.)
Trump is now up to 4,122 false claims for his presidency, an average of 5.7 per day. He averaged 8.3 per day in 2018, nearly triple his 2017 average of 2.9 per day. Here's the comprehensive database: projects.thestar.com/donald-trump-f…

Most of the heroin Trump is talking about comes through legal ports of entry, not through unwalled areas.
Trump has never personally presented detailed data about how many children are being fraudulently used for border-crossing purposes, merely implying it's common. The evidence suggests it's a small minority of the families who cross.
Democrats have not made a "request" for a steel barrier, as far as anyone knows. They don't want any of this.
