Why don't we compare the number of lies and misleading statements told by Michael Cohen with the number of lies and misleading statements told by President Donald Trump?

Here's an accounting of the President Donald Trump lies and misleading statements as reported by the Washington Post on April 28, 2019:

President Trump has made more than 10,000 false or misleading claims
By Glenn Kessler, Salvador Rizzo and Meg Kelly - April 29, 2019

It took President Trump 601 days to top 5,000 false and misleading claims in The Fact Checker’s database, an average of eight claims a day.

But on April 26, just 226 days later, the president crossed the 10,000 mark — an average of nearly 23 claims a day in this seven-month period, which included the many rallies he held before the midterm elections, the partial government shutdown over his promised border wall and the release of the special counsel’s report on Russian interference in the presidential election.

This milestone appeared unlikely when The Fact Checker first started this project during his first 100 days. In the first 100 days, Trump averaged less than five claims a day, which would have added up to about 7,000 claims in a four-year presidential term. But the tsunami of untruths just keeps looming larger and larger.

Oh, and by the way, is North Korea still no longer a nuclear threat to the rest of the world?
