Analysis: Donald Trump’s top 25 lies of 2025
Donald Trump repeated 25 frequently debunked false claims in 2025 to support policies and rally supporters, including inflated investment figures and misleading war and migration statements.
- This year, President Donald Trump was catalogued for repeating fabrications in the top 25 false or misleading claims list throughout 2025.
- Trump used falsehoods to defend policy moves, framing the domestic policy bill as leaving Medicaid unchanged despite cuts and citing inflated foreign aid claims about Gaza to justify spending cuts.
- Trump falsely claimed babies receive '80' or '82' vaccines at once and promoted impossible drug-price cuts of '500%'–'3,000%', despite official data showing much lower figures.
- Fact‑checks and records contradicted several denials, as social posts undercut Trump’s DOJ pressure denial and Washington, D.C. homicide data refuted his no-murders claim.
- These fabrications influence policy debates by spreading false migration tales about foreign leaders, exaggerating claims of ending seven or eight wars, and misleading inflation and tariff narratives, as of earlier this month.
