最近，美媒《华盛顿邮报》(The Washington Post) 做了一项统计，特朗普担任美国总统以来，已累计发表虚假或误导性的言论超过20,000次↓↓↓

《华盛顿邮报》报道称，根据统计，特朗普说谎次数在上任第827天时达到10000次，平均一天说12次谎。

然而，仅在440天之后，特朗普的说谎次数就突破了20000次，也就是说，他平均一天能说23次谎。而在这14个月的时间里，特朗普经历了弹劾、冲击美国经济的全球性疫情以及因非裔男子弗洛伊德之死而引发的抗议活动。

It took President Trump 827 days to top 10,000 false and misleading claims in The Fact Checker’s database, an average of 12 claims a day.

But on July 9, just 440 days later, the president crossed the 20,000 mark — an average of 23 claims a day over a 14-month period, which included the events leading up to Trump’s impeachment trial, the worldwide pandemic that crashed the economy and the eruption of protests over the death of George Floyd in police custody.

值得注意的是，在疫情期间，特朗普在几个月内就发表了1,000多次虚假或误导性言论。

The coronavirus pandemic has spawned a whole new genre of Trump’s falsehoods. The category in just a few months has reached nearly 1,000 claims.

而在任期内，特朗普最喜欢说的一句话便是：美国经济处于历史最好的水平(the U.S. economy today is the best in history)。从2018年6月起，这句话他前后说了360次。

此外，如今他还表示，美国经济在世界经济中处于历史最好水平 (the best economy in the history of the world)。

So far during his presidency, Trump’s most repeated claim — 360 times — is that the U.S. economy today is the best in history. He began making this claim in June 2018, and it quickly became one of his favorites. He’s been forced to adapt for the tough economic times, and doing so has made it even more fantastic. Whereas he used to say it was the best economy in U.S. history, he now often recalls that he achieved “the best economy in the history of the world.”

特朗普重复第二多的话是关于修建边境墙，共说了261次，然而《华盛顿邮报》称该工程不过是翻新老旧矮小的围栏，新建的边境墙长度仅为3英里。

Trump’s second-most repeated claim — 261 times — is that his border wall is being built. Congress balked at funding the concrete barrier he envisioned, so the project evolved into the replacement of smaller, older barriers with steel bollard fencing. (Only three miles of the barrier is on land that previously did not have a barrier.)

此外，《华盛顿邮报》称，他们还统计到了有三四个谎言，特朗普说了不下20次，并忍不住吐槽他是“无底线的匹诺曹”(Bottomless Pinocchio)

The Fact Checker also tracks Three- or Four-Pinocchio claims that Trump has said at least 20 times, earning him a Bottomless Pinocchio.
