What I often hear is "Trump lies." When I ask, "Which Trump lie bothered you the most?" I frequently receive a confused look, the conversation is ended quickly, or to avoid the question, I hear, "he lies about everything." But Donald Trump doesn't lie; Democrats lie.
Trump and the Republicans have no Whitewater, no Benghazi, no Uranium One, no Fast and Furious, no FBI scandals, no NSA spying, no IRS targeted audits, no Bill Clinton-Loretta Lynch rendezvous, no private servers, no conspiracy emails, no threats to national security, and no violations of the rights of private citizens.
Yes, Trump and the Republicans have no conspiracy emails, but the Democrats had 27,515 emails that were hacked, possibly by Russia, that substantiated fraud against Bernie Sanders's presidential campaign. To cover up their wrongdoing, the Clinton campaign and the DNC (Democratic National Committee) set out to fabricate damaging information on Donald Trump.
Their law firm Perkins Cole hired Fusion GPS, which in turn hired Christopher Steele for $160,000. Steele created a 35-page collection of unconfirmed claims regarding misconduct, conspiracy, and collaboration between Trump's presidential campaign and Russia. Although Steele contended that his work was not "established facts," the Democrats published what became known as The Steele Dossier as "total fact." These lies would permanently impact President Trump's administration.
Trump and the Republicans have no NSA spying. They have no violations of the rights of private citizens. However, the Democrats are guilty of both. Because the NSA is forbidden by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) from engaging in domestic spying, the FBI must go to court for a warrant. The FBI lied, concealing key information, to obtain a FISA warrant against Carter Page, a private citizen and former foreign-policy adviser to Donald Trump.
Then, in violation of Page's civil rights, the FBI renewed the FISA warrant three times, each time illegally, without probable cause. When President Donald Trump fired James Comey of the FBI, Democrats accused him of "obstruction of justice," triggering the indictments of more private citizens, those associated with Trump's presidential campaign.
Lacking even a single conviction for "collusion with Russia" among the indicted Trump associates, the Mueller investigation lied, concluding there were "substantial links between Russians and the Trump campaign" and that Russian interference occurred in a "sweeping and systematic fashion." All lies!
The Steele Dossier was a lie, the Mueller investigation was a lie, the insurrection was a lie, the economy was a lie, Joe Biden's health was a lie, the Chinese planting Hunter Biden's laptop was a lie, covid-19 deaths were a lie, and my favorite Democrat lie, Trump's 34 felony charges; 11 felony counts for receiving a bill, 11 felony counts for paying the bill, and 12 felony counts for posting the payments to a ledger.
During the 2024 presidential debate, Kamala Harris reiterated the lie that Trump threatened a "bloodbath in America." The only comment Trump made about a bloodbath was regarding the potential for China to take over our auto industry with cheap imports. So, when someone does respond to my question, they are just repeating a Democrat lie!
The Washington Post claims that President Trump made 30,573 "false or misleading claims" during his presidency. They pointed to his statement, "Powered by these policies, we built the greatest economy in the history of the world," as a major falsehood because he repeated this statement in his State of the Union address.
To fact-check Trump, the Post focused on his Gross Domestic Product (GDP), going back six decades to the 1950s to find a GDP percentage that was better than Trump's, thus labeling his statement as "false." The Washington Post lied, concealing a thriving economy, improved manufacturing, resource availability, and energy independence.
In reality, the economy was indeed "great!" Household income was up $6.000, inflation was at 1.2%, unemployment was at its lowest since 1969 at 3.6%, interest rates were at 3.5%, and all three stock market indices rose over 20%. The deficit was at $984 billion and the national debt at $7.2 trillion.
In his first State of the Union Address, Joe Biden looked directly at Americans and lied to them. "Let me remind you again: I reduced the federal deficit. All the talk about the deficit from my Republican friends, I love it. I’ve reduced the deficit in my first year in office." Joe Biden had not reduced the deficit. Covid-19 relief spending had pushed the deficit to $3.1 trillion. When the spending ended, his deficit remained at $2.8 trillion, nearly three times the $984 billion Trump deficit.
Joe Biden lied again in his 2024 State of the Union Address. "The economy has grown more since I took office than at this point in any presidential term in the last 25 years. We have the strongest economy in the world. Let me say it again, in the world." No one fact-checked Joe Biden, but inflation had risen to 4.7 percent, with some food prices increasing by 40 percent and energy prices up 100 percent. Interest rates doubled to 6.8%, and the national debt skyrocketed from $7.2 trillion to $34 trillion. For the first time in history, the interest on our national debt exceeded $1 trillion.
Democrats misrepresent their economy and claim it is too complex for the public to understand, but understand this: In a healthy economy, you can afford necessities, some luxuries, and have savings. Jobs are available, borrowing is manageable, energy is affordable, and taxes are reasonable.
Democrats predicted that the S&P 500 would fall by half if Donald Trump enacted his policies, but stocks instead surged. When Trump tweeted "Think of what will happen to your now beautiful 401-k's!," NBC News said Trump lied because "nearly half of Americans may not have a retirement plan at all." That's absurd and irrelevant. They continued to lie asserting that Trump made "sweeping and false claims" about his achievements.
Democrats lied about Trump's tax cuts. Kamala Harris perpetuated the lie during the 2024 presidential debate when she claimed, "it’s all about tax breaks for the richest people." In reality, his tax cuts reduced taxes for 8 out of 10 (76%) U.S. taxpayers, and the 1.6 million taxpayers who reported earnings of $500,000 or more paid an additional $16 billion in taxes.
Trump's tax cuts doubled the Standard Deduction to $6,200, lowered all low-income tax brackets from previous years, and expanded the child tax credit. Trump also reduce the corporate tax rate from 38% to 22%, and corporations returned over $1 trillion to the U.S. economy from foreign banks, with Apple Corporation alone contributing $32 billion.
Home Depot, employing 400,000 individuals, announced it would provide a one-time cash bonus of up to $1,000 to all U.S. hourly associates. Fifteen other corporations also distributed $1,000 bonuses to over 700,000 employees. No wonder Democrats continue to misrepresent Donald Trump's tax cuts.
NBC claimed that Trump lied about Covid-19. "Just stay calm. It will go away.", Trump said on March 10, 2020. They label this a lie because how could Trump have known so early in the pandemic that the virus would disappear? My question to them is this; how did they know it wouldn't?
As Donald Trump rushed to replenish pandemic supplies depleted by Barack Obama and to secure a vaccine, Democrats incited panic. Based on Dr. Fauci's changing testimonies, they were compelled to tell one lie after another. Their falsehoods devastated a thriving economy and made life unbearable for millions.
California and New York were the first to impose lockdowns and confine citizens to their homes. When Republicans warned that lockdowns would be more destructive than anything the coronavirus could inflict, Democrats labeled them as greedy capitalists who only cared about profits.
Democrats and their media allies concealed health data, leading many to believe they would die if they left their homes. They misrepresented nursing home deaths, which accounted for 80 percent of fatalities in some states. They also miscounted deaths by including pneumonia, flu, and "probable covid" deaths as confirmed Covid-19 deaths.
Everyone should have remained calm, exercised reasonable caution, applied common sense, and awaited the vaccines developed in 2020. All the lockdowns, masks, and social distancing did not lead to Covid-19 "going away" any faster. California remained locked down a year longer than Florida.
On December 24, 2020, Trump stated "Voter fraud is not a conspiracy theory, it's a fact." Democrats insist that voter fraud does not exist. However, no U.S. government agency has ever compiled data on voter fraud but an analysis by election experts indicates that fraud does occur, even concluding that "fraud is slightly more common with mail-in voting than in-person voting at polling places."
I wouldn't expect Democrats to question the legitimacy of the 2020 election, but it experienced the largest increases on record in every aspect of a presidential election. It saw 17 million more people voting than in 2016, a 73% increase in nontraditional voting compared to 2016, 46% of all votes were mailed in for an unprecedented 92% turnout among registered voters.
Many states maintained traditional voting methods, while some expanded early voting, and others automatically mailed ballots to all registered voters. With mail-in ballots accounting for 46% of the votes cast, I would like to believe that election judges diligently verified the signatures of all 72.9 million mail-in ballots before counting them, as Democrats claim, because Joe Biden won only 506 counties out of 3,006 counties.
CNN argues that Donald Trump's lies had deadly consequences. They falsely claim that there were five deaths associated with the January 6, 2021 protest. However, after months of misinformation, the only death officially attributed to the demonstration was Ashly Babbit, who was shot to death by a Capitol police officer as she climbed unarmed through a broken window.
Nancy Pelosi lied about January 6th. She declined Trump's offer to deploy the National Guard because she had a different strategy. Insurrection. With this strategy, protesters could be imprisoned without due process. One person, who was seen on video in the rotunda wearing a red hat, was there for 15 seconds but arrested and placed in solitary confinement for a year without so much as a hearing. Simply criminal!
Democrats may have also lied that the protesters who left the rotunda, accompanied by the press, photographers, and Capitol police, managed to navigate their own way through miles of corridors and 600 rooms of the Capital building to find key locations where they were photographed. Hundreds of protestors were held in jail for months without even a hearing, and yet no one was ever convicted of insurrection!
QAnon was another Democrat lie conjured up by the New York Times. QAnon was identified by the FBI as a conspiracy group of Trump followers "linked to multiple instances of violence including kidnappings, car chases and a murder." Fearing QAnon, Nancy Pelosi installed a razor-wire fence around the capitol with thousands of troops stationed along its perimeter
In reality QAnon violence was limited to 12 individuals including a Kentucky mother charged with kidnapping her twin daughters, a Utah woman for kidnapping her son, a Boston man who led police on a 20-mile car chase, a Staten Island man who allegedly murdered a leader in the Gambino crime family and a Canadian Ranger who allegedly ramed a truck through the gates of the prime minister’s residence in Ottawa.
The lies that did have deadly consequences were those surrounding the Black Lives Matter riots of May 2020, which Democrats desperately tried to hide from the public. The extreme violence and destruction resulted in 25 deaths. BLM protestors set fire to 1,500 buildings, leaving 10,000 people homeless in Portland. In Minneapolis, damages exceeded $500 million, and 150 buildings were set ablaze.
On a national scale, property damage was estimated at $2 billion. Police vehicles and stations were firebombed, courthouses were vandalized, banks were looted, and ATMs were ripped from walls. Pharmacies were plundered for drugs. Police officers were instructed to stand down even while being shot at, run over, slashed with knives, and beaten. Two police officers were killed in cold blood.
Kamala Harris worked to secure the release of those arrested, ensuring that no one was ever prosecuted. Nancy Pelosi's Judiciary Committee repeatedly and unanimously lied during a hearing against Attorney General William Barr that the riots never actually occurred.
Remember this: During the Trump administration, there were no wars. Under Barack Obama, Americans lost their lives in Benghazi, Al-Qaeda and ISIS thrived, and Putin invaded Ukraine. Under Joe Biden, Americans lost their lives in Afghanistan, Hamas and Hezbollah thrived, and Putin invaded Ukraine, again.
Bill Clinton lied about Monica Lewinsky, Paula Jones, and Whitewater, a scandal that saw 12 of his partners convicted for over forty financial crimes. Hillary Clinton lied about Whitewater, Benghazi, her server, 30,000 emails, and Russian collusion. Barack Obama lied about the NSA, the IRS, Solyndra, and Obamacare (ACA) with 167,000 people loosing their insurance and no family ever saving his promised $2,500 a year in insurance.
Joe Biden falsely claimed he created more jobs than any other president. In 2019, the unemployment rate was 3.5%, the lowest it had been since 1969. During the Covid-19 lockdowns, unemployment soared to 14 percent. When unemployment returned to 3.5%, it was not due to Joe; it was tens of millions of individuals returning to work after Covid lockdowns.
Kamala Harris effectively lied for four years, covering up President Joe Biden's declining health. It's no wonder Democrats view her as Wonder Woman. She lies, with a straight face and a giggle, about Republicans, the U.S. Constitution, Project 2025, guns, the border, fracking, ninth-month abortions, and she responds to every question about the economy with "I grew up a middle-class kid..."
Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and the Democrats have lied, falsified, and concealed information that has devastated the lives of millions and destroyed one of the greatest economies in our history. When logic or common sense warns against a lie, they label it a "conspiracy theory."
Their lies have fostered hatred, encouraged evil behavior and rhetoric, and promoted assassinations. Their falsehoods will strip away your freedom of choice, private ownership, and create life-threatening energy shortages.
When comparing Democrat lies to Trump lies, it becomes clear why the question "What Trump lie bothered you the most?" elicits a confused stare.
Trump and the Republicans have no Whitewater, no Benghazi, no Uranium One, no Fast and Furious, no FBI scandals, no NSA spying, no IRS targeted audits, no Bill Clinton-Loretta Lynch rendezvous, no private servers, no conspiracy emails, no threats to national security, and no violations of the rights of private citizens.
