Donald Trump has been awarded Politifact's coveted "2015 Lie of the Year" award for his series of inaccurate statements relating to Mexican immigrants, Muslims cheering on 9/11, and racially biased statistics about crime. "It’s the trope on Trump: He’s authentic, a straight-talker, less scripted than traditional politicians. That’s because Donald Trump doesn’t let facts slow him down," the publication wrote.
