Trump Tells At Least Four Lies In Just One Sentence, That's All!






Trump Tells At Least Four Lies In Just One Sentence, That's All!
Holy cow. He's getting worse. Jake Tapper, you catching any of this?

By Conover Kennard — March 19, 2026

Donald J. Trump is using the full weight of his bully pulpit to demand mercy for a 70-year-old grandma sitting in prison. Touching, right? Except this "grandma" is Tina Peters, the former Mesa County clerk who didn't just "expose fraud"—she handed unauthorized access to voting machines, let people copy sensitive data (passwords and all), and then watched as that stuff got plastered online like it was a viral cat video. The courts found it was a crime; she got 9 years.

Trump once again took to Truth Social to demand Peters’ release from prison in a lie-filled post, containing 43-words in 2 sentences to declare her a patriot hero, age-inflating her to 73 for extra sympathy points, slapping on a phantom cancer diagnosis, claiming the governor sentenced her (spoiler: nope, a judge), and insisting she heroically exposed 2020 fraud (double spoiler: zero evidence of that.).

"FREE TINA PETERS, A 73-YEAR-OLD WOMAN, WITH CANCER, GIVEN A NINE YEAR DEATH SENTENCE IN A COLORADO PRISON BY A DEMOCRAT GOVERNOR, JARED POLIS, AND A CORRUPT POLITICAL MACHINE, FOR EXPOSING FRAUD BY THE DEMOCRATS DURING THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION," Captain Capslock wrote. "AGAIN, FREE TINA!"

..............At the same time, Colorado officials politely explain that presidential pardons don't cover state crimes.

................................
Last December, Trump issued a fake ass pardon for Peters. Again, he can't pardon state crimes. Following that doozy, Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser basically said, 'Nope, that's not going to happen.'

It's the expectation now that everything we hear from this Administration (and Cabinet) will be a lie. There is no trust in this President because he doesn't know how to tell the truth, that is a national shame.
