If Politifact is something that can be trusted as a source, then how about this OP from a current thread about their newest findings? > [@Politifact has issued their ratings today.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/politifact-has-issued-their-ratings-today/769875/1): > > [PolitiFact | National](http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/) > > \*PolitiFact has been documenting Trump’s statements since 2011, when he was toying with a 2012 White House bid. Since then, we’ve fact-checked more than 300 Trump claims. About 71 percent of them rated Mostly False, False or Pants on Fire. About 14 percent of his statements are Half True, while 4 percent rated True. > > Trump’s inaccuracies are diverse. They include conspiracy theories, attacks on critics and opponents, misleading statistics and exaggerations of his own personal record. \* > > \*PolitiFact has been fact-checking Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton since we launched in 2007, during her first run for the White House. Over that time, she has proven herself to be a careful speaker. Like all politicians, however, she sometimes stretches the truth. > > During the many years we’ve fact-checked Clinton, we’ve rated close to 300 of her statements. Just over half — 51 percent — have rated True or Mostly True. Another 23 percent rated Half True. On the negative side, 26 percent of her statements rated Mostly False, False or Pants on Fire.\* > > So, tell me again, Hillary-haters- which is the dishonest candidate? --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/who-here-is-voting-for-trump/761989)._
