Even when we were judging only by the excerpts, we knew U.S. President Donald Trump’s interview with the Wall Street Journal was dishonest. But we didn’t know quite how dishonest until last week.

The Journal released only a partial transcript of its July 25 Oval Office conversation with the president. Those segments included 11 false claims from Trump. When the right-leaning paper refused to release the full text, a rival publication, Politico, obtained and published the full transcript — which included a whopping 15 additional false claims from Trump.

All in all, the interview with one of America’s leading publications was one of Trump’s most inaccurate of all time. And at the 200-day mark of his presidency, he has made 500 false claims — an average of 2.5 false claims per day.

Over six months in office, Trump has proven uniquely willing to lie, exaggerate and mislead. By all expert accounts, he is more frequently inaccurate than any of his predecessors.
