@#15 ... I'll take lying for $500... ...
I also.
Considering that Pres Trump, during his first term, told an average of 20 or so lies per day, that seems to be a good choice.
With 20 lies on Day 1, will Trump break first-term record of 30,573 untruths? (January 2025)

... With Donald Trump in the White House, the American media is returning to a fact-check era. Trump delivered two speeches on Monday after being sworn in as the President. There were 20 instances of inaccuracies.
Will Trump outperform on the Lie Meter in his second term? In his first term as the American President, Trump made 30,573 false or misleading claims, according to The Washington Post. ...
And, fwiw, Mr Bezos seems to have halted the Washington Post's fact checking of Pres Trump, along with his halting of Washington Post editorials critical of Pres Trump.
I guess that is what Mr Bezos feels he needs to do in order to gain Pres Trump's favor so that Pres Trump won't tell the DoJ to attack amazon.com.

"Unemployment is up due to Trump's policies."
That is an outright lie.
"Prices for goods and services are up due to Trump's policies."
We are waiting on April to see if there is a material uptick in inflation. The last month we had was March:
Inflation was 2.4%, a 6 month low.

"The assault on our democracy continues due to Trump's policies."
Because he deported illegal, wife-beating, gang members? Yeah, real assault there.
"The loss to our nation is incalculable due to not enough time having passed to fully understand the impact from all th lost trade deals and trade partners."
Well, with the time that has passed, YOU HAVE NOTHING BUT WHINING. I posted the numbers above. As I said, you live in some imbecilic liberal world with fear of the feature completely ignoring the reality around you.
"People can't afford as much at the grocery stores any longer."
Thanks to Joe Biden. For Trump, inflation in March was 2.4% and wage gain was 3.8% annualized. Trump delivered a REAL INCREASE IN INCOME of 1.4% in the month (annualized). That makes things MORE AFFORDABLE -------, not less.
"Every action Trump has taken has hurt America, and is impacting the lives of Americans.

Yet, you can't point out any of these actions with actual data - just pure emotion. I know you are a homosexual, but your argue like a girl - just emotion, no logic, no data.
April jobs beat expectations
April wage growth higher than inflation
April layoffs DOWN
All the horrible things liberals always predict never happen. So, why talk about this liberal fantasy land?

Liar.
April jobs beat LOW expectations and saw downward revisions for February and March. Unemployment remains unchanged.
April wage growth remains UNCHANGED.
Monthly job growth in 2025 averages 25,000 less per month than 2024.
April 2025 layoffs are up 63% compared to April 2024 layoffs.
