The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

LurkerMom: On Thursday, Kessler made what for the WaPo amounted to a remarkable admission: much of what Old Joe blathers on about is not 'credible.'

Gee, Kessler came up with five stories that Biden tells to connect with audiences on different issues. Kessler, for example, said Biden has exaggerated the extent of a fire that occurred at his house in 2004 and that "Biden did not pass the 1.2 million-mile mark until 2016" so he was off by at least two years in his retelling of the story of riding the rails on Amtrak.

BFD.

Kessler also counted 30,573 lies that former president Trump told during his 4 years in office.

30,573 lies.

When The Washington Post Fact Checker team first started cataloguing President Donald Trump's false or misleading claims, we recorded 492 suspect claims in the first 100 days of his presidency. On Nov. 2 alone, the day before the 2020 vote, Trump made 503 false or misleading claims as he barnstormed across the country in a desperate effort to win reelection.

503 lies in a single day.

Well, you must be outraged at Trump and would never support a pathological liar like him for office, amirite?
