Trump's top 25 lies of 2025

Well, CNN set itself a tough task: to come up with the top 25 Trump lies of 2025.

From all the many hundreds/thousands, picking 25 is not easy. They say they chose some because of the number of times they were repeated, some because of the importance of the topic, and some just because they were so bizarre or egregious.

Anyway, what they came up with was:

• Trump secured $17 or $18 trillon in investment in 2025
• "Every price is down"
• Trump was reducing prescription drug prices by "2,000%, 3,000%"
• Foreign countries pay the US government tariffs
• Portland was "burning down"
• Washington DC had no murders for six months
• "I invaded Los Angeles and we opened up the water"
• The Democratic governor of Maryland called Trump "the greatest president of my lifetime"
• Ukraine "started" Russia's war on Ukraine
• Trump was speaking "in jest" when he promised to immediately end the Ukraine war
• The US government had planned to spend $50 million on "condoms for Hamas"
• Every drug boat in the Caribbean "kills 25,000 Americans"
• Trump "didn't say" he had no problem releasing full footage of a September boat strike
• Numerous foreign leaders emptied prisons and mental institutions to send their most undesirable people into the US
• Trump ended seven or eight wars
• "The people of Canada like" the idea of becoming the 51st US state
• Capitol rioters "didn't assault"
• Critical media coverage of Trump is "illegal"
• Trump didn't pressure the Justice Department to go after his opponents
• Obama, Biden and Comey made up the Epstein files
• The 2020 election was "rigged and stolen"
• The US is "the only country in the world" with mail-in voting
• Babies get 80-plus vaccines at once
• Trump's big domestic policy bill didn't change Medicaid
• The domestic policy bill was "the single most popular bill ever signed"

As good a list as any, I guess, and I've covered many of them in this very blog over the months. Seeing them there all together, though, makes you realize the enormity of what Trump has been feeding the American public, and just how serious a psychological problem he has.
