Donald Trump made 103 false claims last week, shattering his dishonesty record

WASHINGTON—The frequency of U.S. President Donald Trump’s dishonesty had steadily accelerated since late last year.

Then, last week, it skyrocketed.

Trump made an astonishing 103 false claims over those seven days, an average of 15 per day. That shatters his one-week record of 60, which he had set in early March.

Trump is incessantly inaccurate, but that number is still remarkable. To put it in perspective: he uttered fewer than 100 false claims in eight of his first ten months in office. His previous average had been 101 per month.
