Trump Averages Eight 'False Claims' a Day

September 4, 2018 at 7:41 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

Washington Post: “In the 592 days since he took the oath of office, President Trump has made 4,713 false or misleading claims, according to The Fact Checker’s database that analyzes, categorizes and tracks every suspect statement uttered by the president.”

“That’s an average of about eight claims a day.”

”When we first started this project for the president’s first 100 days, he averaged 4.9 claims a day. But the average number of claims per day keeps climbing as the president nears the 600-day mark of his presidency.”
