President Trump Admits He Lied To Americans About COVID-19

[Wrathbringer]

He did lie, and has lied thousands of times. If you don't realize that, you're so fucking naïve it hurts my brain to even consider it a possibility. I guess you enjoy being lied to, I guess that works for some people, but not me. But to say he never lied is so laughable it again hurts.

Thousands of times, huh? Know what I like? Record high economies and record low unemployment across all ethnicities. MAGA

By most reports, politifact is an unbiased source. Now consider that they haven't fact checked but a fraction of all of his statements, then extrapolate that out to all of the statements he made. Yes, Trump doesn't really know how to do anything but lie. People with a brain that actually care about facts and truth can see it pretty easily.

True 4%
35 Checks

Mostly True 9%
83 Checks

Half True 13%
117 Checks

Mostly False 20%
175 Checks

False 35%
302 Checks

Pants on Fire 16%
140 Checks

I suppose it shouldn't surprise me that you Trumpers are always stating false information and straight up lying. Look at the example you have elected for yourselves.

What? No it's not. You're using Andraste level logic there... is it because it has "fact" right in the site name that it must be factual?

It's from the Tampabay Times.. a liberal rag.

This is why you are a liberal. You aren't smart enough to figure out you are being used and if a site has "fact" in it and someone tells you it's unbiased, you'll believe it.

LOL, right, in your mind, the only unbiased sources are Fox News and QAnon. get the fuck out of here you tin foil hat wearing ninny.

I suppose you're also going to tell me all fact checking sites are liberals, right? Why would that be? Why don't conservatives care about fact checking???

No, I specifically said that Politifact isn't an unbiased source as you proclaimed it to be.

Nothing more.

Okay, then share a reliable fact checking site that shows Trump tells the truth. I'd say I'd wait, but it's not going to happen.

I don't know of an unbiased fact checking site and never claimed I did.

I specifically said that Politifact was not at all unbiased.

I'd question why you can't understand this simple thing.. but you are a liberal.. nothing is simple to understand for you.

Analysis / Bias

https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/politifact/

In review, Politifact has been called left-biased by some right leaning sources. In fact, there is a source called Politifact Bias that is dedicated to pointing out Politifact’s biases. Politifact is also a signatory of the International Fact Checking Network (IFCN), which outlines a code principles for credible fact-checkers.

Politifact uses minimally loaded language in their articles and headlines such as this: Trump falsely claims NATO countries owe United States money for defense spending. All information is well sourced to credible media and/or direct statements from experts in the field or the politicians themselves. Fact Check selection leans slightly left as more right-wing politicians are currently fact-checked. This may be due to bias or the fact that Republicans currently control two branches of government and hence there is more to check. In fact, there was a recent academic study done that shows Politifact employs minimal bias through wording.

Overall, this update reveals a slight leftward shift in Politifact’s fact checking selection, but not enough to move them from the least biased category. (7/10/2016) Updated (D. Van Zandt (2/05/2020)

Seems pretty legit to me. While they may fact check more republican statements, they are accurate in their fact checking. I found numerous reviews that support this stance. But, I guess the world is really just against you old white guys, huh?

Christ almighty. Please tell me you didn't just bring up Politifact to prove some sort of point.

I don't know how many times I can destroy this absurd logic on the PC.

Okay, I'm waiting for someone to provide a link that fact checks Trump's statements, and doesn't say he's a complete fucking liar. Does it exist? Anywhere? Please link!
