RECENT TRUMP LIES AND FABRICATIONS DURING THE 2nd DEBATE
POLITICIANS LIE all the time, it is sometimes said. Never before has an American politician come as close as Donald Trump has to making the saying literally true. These are debunked statements from Politico and others that fact-check.
• Syrian refugees are vetted before they enter the country.
• Americans are taxed at lower rates than the citizens of many other developed countries.
• Mr. Trump publicly backed the Iraq War before the invasion. His claims otherwise have been repeatedly debunked.
• The Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has not endorsed Mr. Trump.
• The country’s nuclear arsenal is not “exhausted.”
• The U.S. economy is growing at faster than 1 percent per year.
• The hacking of U.S. email accounts this election year. The US intelligence community has blamed the Russian government.
• Mr. Trump did urge his Twitter followers to “check out” an alleged sex tape involving former Miss Universe Alicia Machado.
• Hillary Clinton is not responsible for the racist “birther” campaign Mr. Trump waged against President Obama.
• She did not laugh at a rape victim.
• “Clean coal” is a contradiction in terms.
• The trade deficit was not $800 billion last year.
• Ms. Clinton has not proposed admitting “hundreds of thousands” of Syrian refugees.
• She does not favor a single-payer health-care plan.
• Most health-care premiums are not spiking by “68 percent, 59 percent, 71 percent.”
• The Islamic State does not control “a good chunk” of Libya’s oil.
• The North American Free Trade Agreement was not a “disaster” for jobs.
• Ms. Clinton did not order the deletion of State Department emails after they were under subpoena.
• US Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens did not make 600 calls for help before dying in the Benghazi attacks.
• The United States is not “giving” Iran $150 billion as part of the nuclear deal.
• There is no evidence “many people saw the bombs all over the apartment” of the San Bernardino, Calif., shooters.
• Most African Americans do not live in bombed-out inner cities.
Earlier this year, Politico subjected a week’s worth of Trump campaigning to its magazine’s fact-checking procedure and found that Mr. Trump averaged about one misstatement every five minutes. By our reckoning, he far exceeded that pace Wednesday night.
Last week we published a series of editorials on the damage Mr. Trump could do if he were president. But no one should minimize the damage he has already done. One casualty is the old-fashioned idea that, whatever the cynical proverb, politicians should not routinely lie.
ED: We had to replace two computers that burnt up fact checking on TRUMP. We have also decided that a new category after “Pants on Fire” will be in place next week. It will be called “NO FU*KING WAY DUDE” which out scored “YOU GOTTA BE FRICKIN KIDDING” by ten points.
HOWARD STERN AND DONALD TRUMP INTERVIEW STATEMENTS
• “If Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.”

• “Does she [Kim Kardashian] have a good body? No. Does she have a fat ass? Absolutely.”
• “I’ve known Paris Hilton from the time she’s 12, her parents are friends of mine, and the first time I saw her she walked into the room and I said, ‘Who the hell is that?’ ”
• “Someone asked me how Rosie O’Donnell would like these chairs. They’re not strong enough.”
• “Can you imagine the parents of Kelli [Rosie O’Donnell’s partner] when she said, ‘Mom, Dad, I just fell in love with a big, fat pig named Rosie’?”

• To “Celebrity Apprentice” contestant Brande Roderick: “It must be a pretty picture. You dropping to your knees.”
• On his penis size: “I guarantee you, there’s no problem.” SEE GUILIANI

• “I fully understand why Arianna Huffington’s former husband left her for a man — he made a good decision.”

• Of Carly Fiorina: “Look at that face would anyone vote for that” ? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?”
• Speculating whether his then-infant daughter would have large breasts: “We don’t know whether or not she’s got this part yet, but time will tell.”
• For women who have abortions: “There has to be some form of punishment”.
• ”Former Miss Universe Alicia Machado: Who I call “Miss Piggy, Miss Housekeeping.” Check out sex tape and past.
• Roger Ailes - Fox News: All of a sudden they’re saying horrible things about him. It’s very sad, he’s a very good person.
• On former Playboy model Victoria Zdrok: “She looks like a f*cking third-rate hooker.”
• “Hillary, who is very shrill. Do you know the word ‘shrill’? . . . She can be kind of sha-riiiiill.”

• “I would never buy Ivana any decent jewels or pictures. Why give her negotiable assets?”
“Anyone who knows me knows these words don’t reflect who I am,” Trump said Friday night in his non-apology apology for the video. But that’s just the problem: If you don’t think the words in that video reflect exactly who Donald Trump is, you haven’t been paying attention.
MORE TRUMP PRACTICES AND MISTRUTHS IN THE PRESS
• Trump’s casino bankruptcies, which left investors holding the bag while he left with their franchise money
• Trump’s habit of refusing to pay contractors who had done work for him, many of whom are struggling small businesses
• Trump University, which includes not only the people who got scammed and the Florida investigation, but also a similar story from Texas where the investigation into Trump U was quashed.
• The Trump Institute, another get-rich-quick scheme in which Trump allowed a couple of grifters to use his name to bilk people out of their money.
• The Trump Network, a multi-level marketing venture (a.k.a. pyramid scheme) that involved customers mailing in a urine sample which would be analyzed to produce for them a specially formulated package of multivitamins. Backs up my theory that he is part of the “trickle down economy” recently named “tinkle down economy”
• Trump Model Management, which reportedly had foreign models lie to customs officials and work in the U.S. illegally, and kept them in squalid conditions while they earned almost nothing for the work they did.
• Trump’s employment of foreign guest workers at his resorts, which involves a claim that he can’t find Americans to do the work.
• Trump’s use of hundreds of undocumented workers from Poland in the 1980s, who were paid a pittance for their illegal work.
• His lawsuits pending number in the hundreds, (3500) but with money and shrewd paid attorneys , he delays and delays till they give up and settle. He rarely gets to court.
• Trump’s history of being charged with housing discrimination.
• Trump’s connections to Mafia figures involved in New York construction.
• The time Trump paid the Federal Trade Commission $750,000 over charges that he violated anti-trust laws when trying to take over a rival casino company
• The fact that Trump is now being advised by Roger Ailes, who was forced out as Fox News chief when dozens of women came forward to charge him with sexual harassment. According to the allegations, Ailes’s behavior was positively monstrous; as just one indicator, his abusive and predatory actions toward women were so well-known and so loathsome that in 1968 the morally upstanding folks in the Nixon administration refused to allow him to work for them, despite his key role in getting Nixon elected.
• The point is not that these stories have never been covered, because they have. The point is that they get covered briefly, then everyone in the media moves on. If any of these kinds of stories involved Clinton, news organizations would rush to assign multiple reporters to them, those reporters would start asking questions, and we’d learn more about all of them.
EDITOR: That’s important, because we may have reached a point where the frames around the candidates are locked in: Trump is supposedly the crazy/bigoted one, and Clinton is supposedly the corrupt one. Once we decide that those are the appropriate lenses through which the two candidates are to be viewed, it shapes the decisions the media make every day about which stories are important to pursue.
T-RUMPS stories should be categorized under bunk and bullshit as they are as fake as most reality shows are. His in particular and it means that to a great extent, for all the controversy he has caused and all the unflattering stories in the press about him, Trump is still being let off the hook.
The pressure Hillary Clinton has endured over the past 25-30 years has all be created by the GOP war machine and a greater percentage of all that harangue is falsehoods, conspiracies and lies.
Simple, the press, they are afraid of him... he is the ringmaster.
