An Antidote for Lies

Donald Trump's big argument for why he should be reelected is nothing short of a bundle of lies. He falsely claims shamelessly that the economy is the strongest it's ever been and that he turned around what he claims was President Obama's disastrous economic mess.

The Huffington Post published a great piece on Monday (link here) with hard stats that shows what a liar he is. Trump’s first three years in office, for instance, saw 1.5 million fewer jobs created than during Obama’s last three years in office — 6.6 million for Trump versus 8.1 million for Obama.

The piece lays bare more of Trump's lies. It's a great article to share with anyone tempted to vote for Trump as an antidote for his lies. The economy isn't nearly as strong as he claims it is and he's just been coasting along on Obama's success but is losing the momentum established by his predecessor.
