Trump's Giant Whoppers During the Biden-Trump Debate

Yes, President Biden had a bad showing at the debate.  He seemed to be suffering from laryngitis and a cold. He was clearly off his mark.  We guarantee he'll be back to being "Scrappy Scranton Joe" in a couple of days. No one watching thought, "Gee, I wanted to vote for Biden but he sounds so raspy I have to go with Trump." 

Donald Trump, the 34-times convicted felon, however refused to answer almost every question. Moderators had to ask him three times if he'd accept the election results no matter who won. He eventually said "if it's fair and honest." That means no, he will not, unless he wins. 

Trump unleashed a torrent of lies so fast no one could possibly fact-check him in real time. Here are just a few:


TRUMP DEBATE LIES

"They are executing babies after birth." LIE. No such thing.

"Everybody wanted to overturn Roe." LIE. 75% of Americans Support Roe.

"We had the biggest deficit under Biden." LIE. One quarter of the entire debt happened with Felon Trump: $8,000,000,000. That's eight TRILLION dollars of debt.

"Biden takes millions from China." LIE. No evidence whatsoever. Know whose crap is all Made In China? The Convicted Felon and his daughter.

"Biden wants to quadruple your taxes." LIE. He's stated for 5 years NOT ONE PENNY of tax increases will go to anyone making under $400k a year.

"US provided more aid to Ukraine than Europe." LIE. Europe provides more.

"Immigrants come from prisons and mental institutions" LIE. No evidence for that whatsoever. And President Biden cut immigration numbers by 40% WITHOUT any help from this do-nothing congress.

"Pelosi turned down 10,000 National Guard I offered on January 6." LIE. She and Schumer are on videotape FURIOUS because for over 3 hours the Felon refused to send the Guard for his rioters.

"2020 election fraud." Giant LIE, also known as #TheBigLie. Over 60 courts said NOPE. His own Atty Gen said NOPE. His own DOJ said NOPE. Election officials in every swing state said NOPE.

"Biden indicted me." LIE. The Convicted Criminal Trump was indicted by the State of NY, not the DOJ, and found GUILTY of 34 felonies by a JURY his own lawyers approved.

"Biden made up the 'suckers and losers' quote." LIE. His own former Chief of Staff, John Kelly heard him say it and reported it to The Atlantic. Kelly's own son died serving in Afghanistan.

"I passed the Vets Choice Program." LIE. President OBAMA signed it into law in 2014.

We will continue to support the old guy who has served America honorably for 50 years--NOT the old guy who's a Convicted Criminal with 34 FELONIES so far, and 3 more criminal trials on the way, who sent rioters to overturn an election he lost, secretly paid a porn star hush money via Financial Fraud to hide his filthy affair from America, sent fake electors to 7 states, begged Georgia to invent 11,780 nonexistent votes, stole cases of classified documents and secret war plans, refused to answer any questions and LIED all through the debate.

Why the CNN/Trump "Town Hall" was a Disaster



First, it wasn't a town hall, it was a Trump rally: filled with lies, grievances, and whining.  CNN chose former Daily Caller writer, Kaitlan Collins, to "moderate" it.  (The Daily Caller is a far rightwing blog founded by Tucker Carlson.)  

Second, the audience was not a mix of potential voters, but a couple hundred Trump supporters who previously voted for him or leaned in his direction.  They laughed at his mocking of rape victims, and cheered all his tired lies.

Third, for the entire 75 minutes, Donald Trump steamrolled over Kaitlan, refusing to answer most questions, refusing to acknowledge simple facts, spewing the same tired and disproved lies, and yakking over her repeatedly.

We could fill 20 pages listing and debunking all his lies.  We will not dignify him.  But a few of his biggest whoppers included actually claiming that January 6, 2021, was "a beautiful day" at the U.S. Capitol. He stated that if re-elected he'd pardon most of his rioters. He mocked E. Jean Carroll, calling her a "whack job" and claiming he'd never met her before, despite admitting posing for a picture with her. This, just two days after being successfully sued by her for sexual assault and defamation. He stuck to the lie that the 2020 election was rigged and he actually won.  He claimed he "finished the wall" at the Mexican border, despite Kaitlan managing to squeeze in the fact that only 50 miles of wall were completed. 

A savvy moderator would've asked, "if you finished the entire wall, how can there possibly be an immigration crisis going on right now?"

Trump moved on to claim that if re-elected, he could "end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours." He was never forced to explain how.

There are plenty of articles that will list and fact check every single lie.  We're not going to do that here.

Let's just remind you that Donald Trump is now a convicted sexual predator.  He called the thousand convicted violent insurrectionists "patriots" and promised to pardon most.  He was impeached twice for extorting Ukraine and inciting the violent riots on 1/6.  He stole multiple boxes of classified intel and ignored subpoenas demanding him to return them.  He demanded Georgia officials magically find 11,780 votes for him that didn't exist.  He's at least partially responsible for over a million American deaths by doing nothing to stop Covid during the height of its rampage through the country, instead making staggeringly stupid suggestions like shoving UV lightbulbs, taking malaria drugs, swallowing horse de-worming pills, or injecting disinfectant.

He went on to claim he had an absolute right to take classified documents, he "gave the order to deploy National Guard troops" on and before Jan 6 (he did not), and the U.S. military "has no ammunition left."  All false claims.

Trump lied, smirked, mocked, and lied some more during this whiny grievance-fest. He's proven he has zero ability to change or grow.  He simply cannot admit that he lost.  He is still wholly unqualified to be returned to the White House.
