Donald Trump has now said more than 10,000 untrue things as president. And that's not the big story.

"In a three-day period, the President said or tweeted 171 untruths. That's an average of 57 untruths a day. It's hard to do that even if you are trying. Over the last seven months, again according to Fact Checker calculations, Trump is not telling the truth at a rate THREE times higher than he did in his first 600 days in office -- and even then he was averaging eight false or misleading statements a day. What's clear here is that as Trump's presidency rolls along, he retreats more and more into a world of his own creation, a world that is increasingly devoid of any objectively accepted facts."
