President Donald Trump averaged 10 false claims per day last week. He made 36 on one day, Monday, during which he did a deceit-filled rambling rally in El Paso, Texas (27 false claims), an interview with Fox News’s Laura Ingraham (seven false claims), and a White House meeting with sheriffs (two false claims). The week prior, he had made 25 false claims for the whole week. Trump is now up to 4,424 false claims for the first 759 days of his presidency, an average of 5.8 per day. If Trump is a serial liar, why call this a list of “false claims,” not lies?
