** As of November 1st, 2018, Trump claims to tell the truth "when [he] can"<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/when-i-can-i-tell-the-truth-trump-pushes-back-against-his-peddling-of-falsehoods/2018/11/01/e8278d68-ddbe-11e8-85df-7a6b4d25cfbb_story.html?utm_term=.d0db42789b88 "Truthful" Trump] ''washingtonpost.com''</ref>
** As of December 10th, 2018, as part of their Fact Checker, the Washington Post created the ultimate category of lie, or misleading claim. Based on their prior "[[Pinocchio]]" scale whereby a claim is award 1 (shading of truth) to 4 (lying) Pinocchio's depending on it's relative truthfulness,<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-checker/about-the-fact-checker/?utm_term=.2b9b75331487 Pinocchio Scale/ Fact Checker] ''washingtonpost.com''</ref> the new category is called a "Bottomless Pinocchio" and stands for any false claim repeated publicly more than 20 times. These claims constitute ''disinformation''.<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/politics/fact-checker-most-repeated-disinformation/?utm_term=.7ea2e566af6a Bottomless Pinocchio's Disinformation] ''washingtonpost.com''</ref> The biggest Pinocchio's of the year were given their own page.<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/12/14/biggest-pinocchios/?utm_term=.8604e49c9f53 Biggest Pinocchio's of 2018] ''washingtonpost.com''</ref>
** And then on January 6, 2021, [https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/news/politics/2021/01/06/what-trump-said-rally-speech-spark-u-s-capitol-storming/6568337002/ he told a rally "And after this, we're going to walk down there, and I'll be there with you"] before doing nothing to prevent that crowd from storming the Capitol buildings. He was not right there with them.
* [[Broke Episode]]: Trump's businesses have filed for bankruptcy six times.
* [[Brooklyn Rage]]: Made efforts to cultivate this image over the years. Trump's persona, at least in the media, is that of a [[Nouveau Riche|straight-talking]], tough New Yorker.
