MSNBC or CNN today ran a montage of footage of Trump from four years ago [View all]

bragging about his electoral totals. In every instance, he boasted that the tally was Trump 306, Hillary 223. This, of course, is false: Hillary got 232, not 223. Just another instance of Trump exaggerating the numbers, as he has done throughout his life--such as how many floors his New York highrises have, for instance. I was surprised the host did not correct it after the montage ended. Denying Hillary nine votes is meaningless, of course, except for what it reveals about Trump's devious character. He thought he could switch the "3" and the "2" and get away with it. So he did.
