Spinning Stories

CNN's fact-checker Daniel Dale posted a list of what he called 12 completely fictional tales Donald Trump has told in the past year. As he put it in the tweet I saw with a link to the story, "Even calling these lies does not do them justice. The Republican presidential nominee is regularly delivering vivid tales that have no basis in reality."

I know about most of them, but the Trump Gish Gallop means that there's probably something on that list that will be unfamiliar to everyone, at least on the details.

The list doesn't include the recent made-up stories about Springfield, Ohio.
