30,573 !

That is the number of falsehoods, misleading claims, or outright lies that Donald Trump is reported to have made in 4 years.

No one or no country can recover from such an onslaught of lies without severe consequences. Our country is going thru those consequences right now.

The attack upon our Capitol by right-wing extremists was a result of his Big Lie about the election. He told them he had won in a landslide. He told them someone was going to be in the White House that shouldn't be there. He told them there was fraud and that they had been robbed. He lied his ass off and they believed him. He is a prolific liar, as the 30, 573 number indicates. And it is the one thing he is very good at.

We are now paying the price for the toxic lies of Donald J Trump.

I'd think he'd be using Dan Scavino's twitter account to blather on.

Maybe he's seriously depressed and raging around breaking Mar-a-Lago.

Before he stole his way into the Whitehouse, I had only heard of his bs in NY, his bankruptcies and some stupid tv show I never watched, I considered him a loser and a fool ... now that he’s gone, it’s like normal again ... except for all the mess he’s left behind 😖

scream that President Biden (I can't type this enough) will have lied in the "next" 4 years. Which, ironically enough, will be a lie.
