Getty Trump: Clinton is a 'PATHOLOGICAL LIAR'

Donald Trump reveled in The Washington Post's recent fact check of Hillary Clinton on Tuesday, tweeting a video and alleging that the Democratic nominee has lied on multiple occasions about her use of private email while secretary of state.

"The Washington Post calls out #CrookedHillary for what she REALLY is. A PATHOLOGICAL LIAR! Watch that nose grow!" Trump said in tweeting a 60-second video from the campaign featuring footage of Clinton denying wrongdoing as the nose on a cartoon version of Clinton at the bottom of the screen grows precipitously.


The Post's fact checker Glenn Kessler called out Clinton for her claim in an interview with "Fox News Sunday" that FBI Director James Comey said her email responses had been "truthful."

"Clinton is cherry-picking statements by Comey to preserve her narrative about the unusual setup of a private email server. This allows her to skate past the more disturbing findings of the FBI investigation," Kessler wrote Sunday.

Trump's video concludes with Comey's statement last month that 110 emails and 52 email chains were determined to contain classified information, while seven email chains contained top-secret, special-access information at the time they were received.

"SO MANY LIES!" text on the screen reads, as Clinton's cartoon nose grows off the screen, exploding into flames before the Trump-Pence campaign logo is shown.

Kessler responded to Trump's appropriation of his fact check with both mirth and chagrin.

Both amusing & irritating to see @realDonaldTrump tout a 4-P fact check on HRC when his staff almost never responds to fact check queries — Glenn Kessler (@GlennKesslerWP) August 2, 2016
