Have I Got a Lie For You! is a collection of lies told by Donald Trump--presidential candidate, entrepreneur, and television personality--during his 2015-2016 presidential political campaign.

Includes lies stated or implied by Donald Trump in regard to several of Trump's frequently discussed topics, such as Mexico, Japan, the U.S. job market, immigration, his personal business ventures, and more.

Editor Clarence Douglas was disturbed by the way Trump threw out statements during presidential campaign and media appearances without being challenged, and so pays tribute in this book by naming the dozens of media sites and writers whose investigative work led him to truthful restatements.

Dividing Trump's lies into three witty categories--fibs, fabulations, and falsehoods--Douglas has compiled the most noteworthy of Trump's statements.

Each untruth is rectified, followed by the correct fact.

To prove their falsity, Douglas uses several dozen fact-checking media sources and individual journalists, acknowledging them by name.

Combining investigative journalism with satirical criticism, Douglas makes an unsettling statement about the American political process: how voters will support a candidate for the highest office in the land without regard for his or her integrity.

The compilation also includes an introduction that is an abridgement of Mark Twain's talk, The Art of Lying, presented in 1895 to the Hartford, Connecticut Antiquarian Society.
