Donald Trump Just Said With a Straight Face That He Is 'Actually a Very Honest Guy' and People Are Bringing All the Receipts
ABC News

Suurrrrre.

It is no surprise to most people that President Donald Trump has issues with the truth. Multiple organizations track the lies, half-truths, inaccurate statements and misleading information Trump shares on Twitter and in his dealings with the press.

But according to the man himself, President Donald Trump is a champion of the truth.


In an ABC News interview, Trump told George Stephanopoulos the reason he dislikes polls showing him losing in the 2020 presidential election is because they are "fake news" and not true.

Stephanopoulos asked the President, regarding the poll results:

"Why does it bother you so much?"

Trump responded:

"Because it’s untrue. I like the truth. You know, I’m actually a very honest guy."

Watch the exchange here.

People were quick to refute the President's claim.

People were in agreement that Trump's dishonesty is a rampant and consistent pattern.

In addition to The Washington Post fact checker that tracks President Trump's lack of honesty, the Toronto Star also keeps tabs on Trump's less than honest statements. CNN is also tracking the statements that can be proven wrong.

A very honest guy appears to be the latest less than honest claim from President Trump.

Newsmax Host Epically Blasted For His Hypocrisy After Defending Trump's Profane Easter Tweet

Newsmax host Greg Kelly defended President Donald Trump's use of profanity in his Easter morning threat to Iran, prompting critics to resurface one of his own past tweets calling for a ban on use of the f-word.

Trump lashed out at Iran amid growing concerns about tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow passage at the entrance to the Persian Gulf that carries roughly 20% of the world’s oil supply. Recently, Iran has struck several vessels in the area and warned ships against entering the passage, effectively halting traffic through one of the world’s most crucial energy routes.

At least two Republican politicians are facing criticism after they fell for a clearly A.I.-generated photo of the rescue of two U.S. airmen whose fighter jet went down in Iran over the weekend.

U.S. special forces rescued the second crew member of an F-15 fighter jet shot down over Iran, according to three U.S. officials cited by Axios. The crew member, a weapons systems officer, was wounded after ejecting from the aircraft Friday but was able to walk and evaded capture in the mountains for more than a day.
