NBC’s Fact Checkers Reveal Kamala Lied 29 Times During Debate With Trump: “She’s Good At Lying”

NBC’s Fact Checkers Reveal Kamala Lied 29 Times During Debate With Trump: “She’s Good At Lying” (Page 4 ) | September 16, 2024

Even seasoned political commentators were left scratching their heads. “I’ve covered dozens of debates, but this one was… something else,” said one CNN analyst. “By the end of the night, I wasn’t sure if I was watching a political debate or an improv class where the only rule was ‘make stuff up.’”

Despite NBC’s fact-checking marathon, the Harris campaign remained unfazed by the revelations. In fact, they seemed to embrace the idea that Harris had taken some liberties with the truth, spinning it as a sign of her ability to “adapt” and “connect with voters.”

A spokesperson for the campaign told reporters, “Look, politics is all about storytelling. Sometimes that means adjusting the facts a little to make sure the bigger message gets across. Kamala is great at that, and it’s why she’s such an effective communicator.”

When asked about the 29 lies NBC attributed to Harris during the debate, the spokesperson chuckled. “Twenty-nine? That’s it? Honestly, that’s kind of low for a political debate. I think she could’ve gone for 30.”

As the dust settles from the Harris-Trump showdown, one thing is clear: political debates have become less about who tells the truth and more about who can spin the most convincing narrative. In this latest battle, NBC’s fact-checkers may have labeled Kamala Harris as the night’s most prolific liar, but her ability to wield those lies with precision and confidence is a skill that few can deny.

Whether voters will punish her for stretching the truth—or reward her for doing it so convincingly—remains to be seen. But for now, the Harris campaign seems perfectly comfortable with its candidate’s new title: “She’s good at lying.”
