the top four pinocchios, this is not a right-wing rag but will it matter? matters in a couple ways. one way it matters is if history holds true this coming presidential election cycle which is getting underway, it will start in earnest the day after the midterms are over, will be more rotten than the last one. there is a strong belief among democrats the what is necessary to defeat donald trump is to be more rotten than he was, you have to be even more vicious or have a more deceitful relationship with the truth if necessary by any means necessary. it relates to what you talked about which is if you said donald trump is worse than 9/11, that donald trump is a constant immediate threat to the american way of life what couldn't you do? what wouldn't be excused? what misconduct wouldn't be allowed to save the fabric of the united states? you are going to see a lot of stuff and it may work for her in this case being cynical and narrow in that way. shannon: in the washington examiner, the senator's perspective, there's a price to pay for lying to journalists whi

. >> well, "the washington post" fact checker gave trump's claim this morning four pinocchios. it's the highest for false statements. prior to the tweet, the fact checker said he already passed 5,000 false claims since becoming president. you know, i watch like you do and most political reporters and assignment reporters, we look at the approval rating of the president. it has guardrails. mid-30s, mid-40s. somewhere in that range. and it just bounces around there cyclicly. but these lies don't hurt him any. why not? >> you know, i think his supporters are with him because they're with him because they like his bluster, they like his attitude, they like what he says about trade and about america being cheated and about standing up for a more traditional america. but i do think there's some corrosive effect. and i think you see some of it now. his approval rating now down to maybe 40 or so. >> it seems to have a little ratchet effect there. doesn't go much lower. >> the bottom hasn't fallen out of it, but i do think there are some questions. i think even though he's said untruths

the same genre of selective editing of kavanaugh's remarks that kamala harris frankly got four pinocchios for recently in her editing of his testimony. he didn't say he never had anything to do with pryor -- or i think it was a different judge. he was lead on that prosecution, and nothing in his testimony has been contradicted. it only is if you intentionally misconstrue what he said to mean something much different. he never said presidents can't be indicted. they're saying he said that, and it's not in there. then they'll claim he changed his mind. >> no, that example isn't your best one, but it is a fair point that misconstruction of things is different than patent -- you know, a patent credibility issue where he's spoken on these issues before. >> he said, for example, he didn't see those particular members didn't know they were stolen. he may have been given the information through some other route, which is what seems to be they're attempting to show, but that has nothing to do with -- in every case, there's some misconstruction of what he said. >> that's because he's been clever wi

democratic colleagues and assigned her shameless misrepresentation of judge kavanaugh's testimony four pinocchios, the strongest condemnation. this particular senator cherry-picked from the senate where judge kavanaugh was paraphrasing one side of an argument in a case that came before him, stripped its position of the content and held it up as though it was judge kavanaugh's own personal opinion. by trying to slime judge kavanaugh, the democrats are only underscoring one of his most impressive skills, his widely acclaimed talent for thinking through all party's perspectives and engaging fairly with the full range of views regardless of his personal beliefs. this and all other specific, all other specious attacks that were trotted out said absolutely nothing about judge kavanaugh's actual record. it said a great deal about the senators who were willing to resort to them in order to appease these far-left special interests. but i suspect that everyone who listened fairly to judge kavanaugh and the other witnesses came away seriously impressed with his qualifyingses for the court and i look forward
