All Obama and/or Hillary supporters post one of their lies. All Trump supporters post one of his lies. The most lies by either side wins

The lies must be of verifiable public record, not just opinion. For instance, You can google "Obama's 50 lies" and the majority are said to be fabricated. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/obamas-50-lies/ You may not trust snopes to be honest but the point is it is not reliable enough for this contest. (Though it is reliable.) Politifact has an article "All False statements involving Donald Trump." This, too, is not acceptable to search for lies. (Though it is reliable.) However, you can peruse both to find a lie-lead that can be proven with another public source. Most of those lies listed by both have a hint to help.

Here is an example of what I mean: actual video footage of Obama saying, "You can keep your doctor." (No need for the video.) Well-documented falsehoods, not conjecture. Or Trump's claim about the crowd size of his inaugural address.

Is that too much work? Too sterile, perhaps? Okay, you can add your outrage and h**e or disappointment about the deception.

This could be fun. Or probably a dismal failure. But maybe a game of who is most willingly t***sparent is what we need to loosen up. The honesty may shock us all and perhaps...er, who knows?

Sorry Curly,

I tried this once before, on and off OPP. Got NOTHING useful. BTW, one person's "lie" is another person's "t***h". This little exercise can only be "helpful" if the lie can be debunked where most everyone agrees on a similar understanding of the facts. But what the hay, dangle the worm, see what bites.

I hear that Trump's lies are now up to 20,000. Wow, huge jump from the previous 8000. Again, Trump is winning over Obama.... but I doubt over Clinton.
