Meet the Bottomless Pinocchio, a new rating for a false claim repeated over and over again
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/12/10/meet-bottomless-pinocchio-new-rating-false-claim-repeated-over-over-again
Trump’s willingness to constantly repeat false claims has posed a unique challenge to fact-checkers. Most politicians quickly drop a Four-Pinocchio claim, either out of a duty to be accurate or concern that spreading false information could be politically damaging.
Not Trump. The president keeps going long after the facts are clear, in what appears to be a deliberate effort to replace the truth with his own, far more favorable, version of it. He is not merely making gaffes or misstating things, he is purposely injecting false information into the national conversation.
To accurately reflect this phenomenon, The Washington Post Fact Checker is introducing a new category — the Bottomless Pinocchio. That dubious distinction will be awarded to politicians who repeat a false claim so many times that they are, in effect, engaging in campaigns of disinformation.
The bar for the Bottomless Pinocchio is high: The claims must have received three or four Pinocchios from The Fact Checker, and they must have been repeated at least 20 times. Twenty is a sufficiently robust number that there can be no question the politician is aware that his or her facts are wrong. The list of Bottomless Pinocchios will be maintained on its own landing page.
The Fact Checker has not identified statements from any other current elected official who meets the standard other than Trump. In fact, 14 statements made by the president immediately qualify for the list.

Reality distortion field is a term first used by Bud Tribble at Apple
Computer in 1981, to describe company co-founder Steve Jobs's charisma
and its effects on the developers working on the Macintosh project.[1]
Tribble said that the term came from Star Trek,[1] where in the
Menagerie episode, it was used to describe how the aliens created their
own new world through mental force.

А они не подумали, что Трамп-то не очень подходит, но вот они сами -
очень даже заслуживают этой бездонной награды ?
Надо же, какое всё же безмозглое чмо ...

Trump: "No. No. What else?"
Reporter: "Then why did Michael Cohen make those if there was no truth to her allegations?"
Trump: "Well, you’ll have to ask Michael Cohen. Michael is my attorney. And you’ll have to ask Michael Cohen."
Reporter: " Do you know where he got the money to make that payment?"
Trump: "No, I don’t know. No."
