1. well Im comforted to know hes only got 11.7 mil supporters!

[PatSeg]

2. He just says whatever he wants,

and it magically becomes true.

[SammyWinstonJack]

15. He thinks it magically becomes true and among his idiot,

willfully ignorant Deplorables, it does.

[Yonnie3]

3. Not surprised.

Was this one of those rhetorical questions? I am always answering them.

[democratisphere]

4. No. Well on his way to 3,000 lies while in the WH.

[jmowreader]

19. How many lies does it take to get into the Presidential HOF?

They say 3000 hits almost guarantees you a spot in Cooperstown; certainly there’s a similar club for presidents...

[Sophiegirl]

5. ...

[orangecrush]

6. In a word

No.

[ailsagirl]

7. What a dodo

9. How come he doesn't brag about the number of games of golf he's played in his first year?

Or the number of people who have either quit or driven out by scandal in the first year?

Or the number of people Robert Mueller has indicted or gotten guilty pleas from?

Or how many lustful thoughts he has about Ivanka every day. "More sexual fantasies than any other father has had about their daughter, ever. Period!"

Really, did we actually expect IQ45 to send anything other than this tweet after the SOTU?

The next tweet will be about Nunes' memo, and how it shows the entire FBI investigation is a witch hunt meant to destroy his presidency, which is the best presidency in the history of presidencies.

10. The real Question

If no one really gives a shit is it still a lie??

[obnoxiousdrunk]

11. Why is the

margin always 3 million ? Hmmm

[DallasNE]

12. The Numbers Are Worse Than They Appear

Population growth should have added about 5 million viewers.

What the Fox total shows is that the boycott was effective as millions tuned out.

[SergeStorms]

28. Right, he boasts about the FOX viewership......

as if the entire world happened to tune into FOX, and FOX only to view his lie-fest. No one bothered to explain to him that FOX is the official home channel of fascists, everywhere! Only his deplorables were watching that extravaganza of bullshit, and only FOX delivers constant GOP propaganda.

There's only a few things Trump is the biggest and best of; lying, undeserved boasting, lying, and...............oh yeah, lying!

[Marcuse]

13. Alternative Math

[Stuart G]

14. Trump lies about everything..k and r

[mountain grammy]

16. He believes it, his supporters believe it, his poll numbers are up,

we're heading to the gates of hell on earth.

[George II]

17. But don't forget, there were 30 million people channeling him.

[AllyCat]

18. He doesnt recognize a wonderful 8 year Presidency because it was Obamas.

If he doesn’t say he’s the best, he legitimizes Obama’s superiority in every way and his supporters won’t accept that.

[Rorey]

20. I told my family he would do that

Of course he was probably told that by his handlers because they knew he'd flip out if he knew the truth.

[NRaleighLiberal]

21. Ha! If he is ever truthful the world will end!

[VaBchTgerLily]

22. no not surprised

[syringis]

23. Wat would be a huge surprise...

...is Trumpig saying the truth...

[Hamlette]

24. He'll say he meant the highest number to watch a Trump SOTU

liar that he is.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

25. How do you tell when Trump's lying

His lips are moving

[bearssoapbox]

26. This will forever be PINO Trumplethinskin's legacy and place in history.

[John Fante]

27. Think about everything this imbecile does to stay in the

news and he still can't beat Obama's numbers, even with population growth. Pathetic.

[underpants]

29. Something called "Fox News Research" called him on it

30. K&R

[smirkymonkey]

31. Delivered from the heart?

He read a speech written by somebody else (or more likely a team of people) over a teleprompter. Nothing could be further from the truth. He lies about EVERYTHING!

[krispos42]

32. So Obama in 2009...

got 48 million out of 307 million, or 15.64%

Fanta Menace in 2018 got 45.6 million out of 327 million, or 13.94%.

HA!

[trof]

33. He just can't help himself, can he?

It's almost pitiful.
It's a sickness.
He's like an alcoholic who just can't walk past a bar.
Kinda sad.

[pansypoo53219]

34. and his favorability poll was not above 50%.

HA HA.

[caraher]

35. How do you know it's a lie and not innumeracy?

He routinely seems to confuse which number is larger and which is smaller, such as his vote total vs. Hillary's

[Kashkakat v.2.0]

36. Is it just me - every time I see "SOTU" I read it as "STFU" - seems appropriate somehow!

Like here we are, how many years later and we STILL have to be inundated by this inane insane blathering . Like STFU already!

[yonder]

37. funny you mention that

I do the same. I about always think STFU when I read SOTU. I could only endure 10-15 minutes of it Tuesday before having to shut the tube down. And there were plenty of STFU's before then.

[dalton99a]

38. So obsessed with size.

That boy has serious issues

[tclambert]

39. Obama only had more due to millions of illegal viewers in California.

[calimary]

40. I would answer with an emphatic NO!

By now, why should anyone be surprised that he lied about this? What HASN’T he lied about? This is an individual who lies like the rest of us breathe.

[moose65]

41. I've already seen the talking point on this one

I don't usually like to read comments on Facebook, but I did on this one, and there's a bunch of deplorables parroting the line "But, but.... a LOT of people watched it online or streamed it on their phones, so HAHA.... he was telling the TRUTH, dammit!!11!!111!!!"

Morans!!

[Initech]

42. Is there anything Trump doesn't lie about?

Just once I want him to tell the truth about something, anything! "Mr, Trump, who won last year's Super Bowl? "The Atlanta Falcons did. They were up on the Patriots 28 - 3. But it doesn't matter. They don't stand for our national anthem. Failing ratings! Sad!"

[Stardust1]

43. The only surprising thing

Is that he thinks people watch him because they like him, and not to see what stupidity he lets slip from his anus this time.

People are watching for the same reason they watch trashy reality TV or a freak show. Just because people are watching you doesn't mean you did anything worth while.

[pamdb]

44. liar

If he's talking he's lying.
