CNN Fact-Checker Exposes ‘Lie After Lie’ That Trump Told At Debate

Daniel Dale summed up the former president's debate performance with two scathing words.

The fact checking articles already posted about this September Harris-Trump
debate, are worth carefully reading.

There is a bit of room for different interpretations of how the 2 candidates
did, on some topics. Especially, when the candidates spoke generalizations
that really needed more details ("context") in order to evaluate the
generalization.

But, as the CNN comment (in Huff Post) mentions, Trump is showing
signs of simply being "untethered to reality".

Trump has been living in a self-made world of conspiracy theories,
and has promoted those who pass along conspiracy theories, as long
as those talking heads (such as Tucker Carlson) flatter Trump.

A couple days after the debate, now, fact checkers STILL can't find any evidence for
a number of his bizarre assertions. This should be really upsetting to Christians.
We are called to NOT "bear false witness" (about our shared reality).

Is he lying or just stretching the truth?

That's the real question

Is he lying or just stretching the truth?

Some of his former associates think he hasn't known the difference for a long time.

While Trump is certainly a compulsive liar...someone like Daniel Dale trying to make that case cheapens the whole thing.

Daniel Dale isn't a real fact checker, he's a guy who focuses mostly on calling out and nitpicking conservatives, and then tosses in a few "soft fact checks" of their opponents to maintain the patina of objectivity.

His conclusion was that Trump made 33 false claims and Harris only made 1 during that entire debate...really? lol
