You can go online and check out websites that document how many lies he tells daily, how many lies he's told in his second term, and how many lies he told in his first term.
Trump has been making unfounded accusations against his perceived enemies since he slunk back into the Oval Office in January. His list is a who's who of the Democratic party and he's been targeting the mainstream media with impunity.
When our thin-skinned tyrant turned his wrath against six Democratics for telling members of the military and the intelligence community not to comply with illegal orders from his regime, he crapped his diaper and ordered them arrested and tried for treason. Then executed.
A bipartisan uproar has resulted over his "seditious behavior" and "punishable by death" remarks he made. The six Democrats named are currently having their lives threatened by rabid Trump supporters.
They are Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona; Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan; Reps. Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania, Maggie Goodlander of New York, Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania and Jason Crow of Colorado. All are military veterans and former intelligence officials.
When Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth rushed to retaliate against the six's message - on Trump's behalf - he was only able to hassle one member of the group because they didn't fall under the Department of War jurisdiction. However, Mark Kelly is still subject to the UCMJ according to Hegseth.
Trump's loyal liar-in-arms Hegseth is talking like a tough guy proclaiming he's going to start court martial proceedings or administrative measures against the seditious Sen. Kelly.

UPDATE: Late breaking development. The FBI is working to schedule interviews with the six Democratic lawmakers. The details are still unclear. Justice Department guidelines require investigative steps against sitting members of Congress to go through an approval process to ensure that enforcement power isn't being used for political purposes.
But Trump has dismantled the DOJ's Public Integrity Section, which traditionally served as a check on investigations into political figures. That office has just two prosecutors, down from 36 at the beginning of trump's second term.
---------------------------------------------
To be clear, Kelly and the others encouraged members of the military (see video) to OBEY lawful orders and to disobey unlawful orders. That's not a crime in anyone's book... but it is in Trump's book of anarchy.
This latest dangerous lie about Kelly and the other five, is a decisive moment. "Trump is trying to incite violence, intimidate, and punish those who speak up to hold him accountable" Sen. Slotkin told the press.
How far will this farce go? It remains to be seen what kind of pushback will come from Republicans who are increasingly becoming wary of Trump's spurious attacks on American civilians and members of the military.
It's becoming increasingly hard for Trump to go after his enemies as he continues to lose in the courts. This last week both the James Comey and Letitia James trial sagas resulted in exoneration when the judge found out that the government illegally appointed a prosecutor, Lindsey Halligan, to her position.
In the last two weeks there's been over 12 court cases that have gone against the Trump regime, most of which were immigrant related and involved ICE, The Department of Justice, and The Depart of Homeland Security.
This latest assault against justice by Trump may have crossed a red line. No one is fooled by Hegseth's sudden attack on Kelly or the other five by the FBI. It's part of Trump's playbook that's increasingly falling apart.
As it Stands, as we watch, Trump is physically and mentally falling apart, and more people are now seeing the emperor has no clothes.
