The Trump LIE-brary

The Trump LIE-brary

(TYT)

This LIE-brary was developed by TYT's amazing supporters to remind us all of the terrible things Donald Trump has said and done. Our audience submitted their "favorite" worst things and then our Operation Hope volunteers fact-checked each one with a proper citation so we could deliver this reference LIE-brary to you. The LIE-brary accompanies Trump Brackets - the most exciting game on the internet! We are in the final phases of the game, but you can still play along at https://tyt.com/trump-brackets-tournament.
