Trump praises his presidential accomplishments
US President Donald Trump has praised himself for what he claimed to be one of the best legislation records compared to almost all other presidents before him.
“Never has there been a president … who has passed more legislation and who has done more things than what we’ve done,” Trump said during his first-ever cabinet meeting.
"I think we've been about as active as you can possibly be and at a just about record-setting pace," Trump said.
Trump claimed in his first six months in office he had accomplished more than all previous presidents, except Franklin D. Roosevelt.
His comments come at a time when polls show his approval ratings are suffering due to serious doubts in the public about Trump's truthfulness in his remarks.
Trump’s record of telling lies spans decades and covers a wide range of issues, according to media reports.
False statements by Trump over the years include his take on climate change, former business associates, relations with women, how much money he had and so on and so forth.
Critics say Trump’s only record, compared to other presidents, is his record number of lies.
Former FBI director James Comey, in a congressional testimony last week, testified that Trump had lied about his handling of the Russia probe.
Trump decided to “defame me and more importantly the FBI by saying that the organization was in disarray, that it was poorly run … Those were lies, plain and simple," he told the committee.
Analysts say any reasonable person would realize that the businessman-turned-politician would never win an honesty and integrity match up against a career law enforcement official, under oath, with tape recordings to back his claims, even if Trump did not have a reputation of being a liar.
