  1. All news agencies repeat after me: “falsely says” “incorrectly claims” etc are called *LIES!*

    Please, call them what they actually are instead of trying to make Trump look less like an evil, lying jackass.

  2. What is a lie??? Anything that leave the Putin’s favorite Americans lips. The Orange man cannot speak the truth.

  3. Misinformation during an emergency response helps no one. It actively harms response efforts.

    Call out every and mock every fucking Trump LIE..

    We aren’t going back.

    Vote Blue.

  5. Trump is saying this because it’s what _he_ would do if it were a blue state governor with a natural disaster.

  6. Trump is not known for speaking the truth. But somehow he has convinced the rural Americans that he’s the champion of Christian family values.

    Why is the media dancing around the word lie? There is really no other word for what comes out of the sewer pipe that is Trump’s mouth

    What, Trump lies? This could spell ruins for his campaign. I think it would make a bigly headline if he told the truth.

    At some point Trump supporters need to realize that there is a world of difference between what they think of as “all politicians lie” and the way Trump routinely lies. It is so frustrating that they just ignore behaviors that should immediately disqualify a person from any elective office.

  10. Was this before or after he diverted emergency resources to build himself a podium out of bricks from a broken building?

    **Trump is a psychopath who doesn’t care if his lies and false information harms people.**

    In an emergency situation like Hurricane Helene clear, accurate information and instructions is critical.

    Remember, Trump used a marker to redraw a hurricane’s ‘path’, leading people to potentially not evacuate or plan accordingly in the area the hurricane would hit.

  12. Dude just fucking lies and the media won’t take his dick out of their God damn mouths

    “Trump LIES, falsely claiming Georgia’s governor was unable to talk to BideN about storm damage.”

    The Sanewashing is insane!

  14. It’s crazy that “robust political free speech” as extolled by Trump’s lawyers has morphed into using the largest podium in the land to endlessly spew 100% verifiable lies.

  15. Trump got what he wanted when the media reporting these lies. It’s the same game he has been playing for decades. It doesn’t matter if it’s true. Just get it out in the media and it will do the work on its own.

  16. I think Biden should address a national newscast calling all the news channels for an important announcement. Then talk about the damage Trump is doing with lie after lie after lie on matters of national importance (Helene, Springfield, Border, Crime etc). This will be the talk of the media for a whlle about how Biden tricked them, but there needs to be an inoculation of what more to expect.
