I wouldn’t care if he was 90, but I do care that he can’t function. He constantly lies as well

Between Trump and Biden, Biden is the one you think is the big liar? What’s he lied about?

(And is it something that somehow makes him worse than the compulsive lying fascist guy?)

You think he hasn’t lied?

“I’m the only president this century that doesn’t have any — this decade — that doesn’t have any troops dying anywhere in the world, like [Trump] did.”

So the video of Biden checking his watch over and over again as military members were passing him… They weren’t dead. They were just sleeping extra hard.

The US Border Patrol union “endorsed me, endorsed my position.”

“Black unemployment is the lowest level it’s been in a long, long time.”

In April 2023 under Biden, black unemployment hit a record low of 4.8%, beating a previous low of 5.3% reached under Trump in 2019.

However, the rate last month was 6.1%. Far from “lowest” by several percentage points.

“We have a thousand millionaires in America, I mean billionaires. And what’s happening? They’re in a situation where they in fact pay 8.2% taxes.”

The top 1% of taxpayers (income of at least $548,000) paid an average tax rate of nearly 26% in 2020, while the top 0.001% — 1,475 taxpayers with at least $77 million in adjusted gross income – paid 23.7%

“I’ve changed in a way that now you’re in a situation where there are 40% fewer people coming across the border illegally. That’s better than when [Trump] left office.”

HAH. I not even gratifying this lie with the truth. I think we all know the southern border is a serious problem and that it’s still not even close to Trump levels.

These were JUST from the debate… Several other statements weren’t outright lies, but definitely misrepresentations of the truth. You’re not going to convince anyone that Biden ISN’T lying. There is no single “big liar”. They’re both lying.

Trump is lying about being a child rapist, he has clear photographic proof that he was deeply involved with Epstein. He’s also lied about his plans to institute a christo-fascist state, which seems significantly worse than getting some statistics wrong.

I mean, overlooking troops dying is more significant - but he has cracked down on the border. He tried passing a border control law but the Republicans killed it.

In any case all of they pale in comparison to the stuff Trump lies about, and what he intends on doing. Which is essentially everything. Trump lies about everything, no matter how concrete and proven like Daniels case.

Arguing that they are both liars and therefore equally as bad seems ludicrous.
