Donald Trump opened his mouth so it’s time to get out the lie detector again.
The President’s latest ramble focused on the economy. The inaccuracies ranged from simple (“The economy is unbelievable”) to the incoherent (“There’s never anything even close”) to the petty (“[the previous administration] was going up much higher”). See if you can make any sense of it below.

The replies weren’t exactly slapping Trump on the back, either. It’s a nice mix of factual data, anger, and despair.

Surely he’s not out of touch with the average consumer?

He can say over and over, but it still doesn’t make it true. Even MAGA knows this is BS.

Is Trump capable of telling the truth, and how come the media doesn’t call him out every single time?

Outrageous lies. Struggling and worried consumers watch as he gives $40 billion to Argentina, build a ballroom, hold million dollar dinners with donors, and build his vanity arch. Disgusting. We are paying for all of this one way or another.

He can lie about unemployment and get away with it.
But he can’t lie about prices going down. All of us know it’s a lie.
