TRUMP SNAPPED!

IT’S been four years of chaos and one controversy after the next. But it’s finally over – Donald Trump exits the White House and Joe Biden enters, bringing to an end one of the most astonishing and turbulent presidential terms in US history.

For many it couldn’t come fast enough. The mayhem that un­ folded with just two weeks of his presidency to go, shocked the world, including some of his most ardent supporters.

Images of rioters storming the Capitol building in Washington, home to America’s government and the very heart of the country ’s democracy, will make their way into the history books as an unprecedented attack on the US political sys­tem.

Trump’s dishonesty is at the root of it, analysts say.

For his entire presidency, he’s had a shaky grip on the truth.

According to sources who have tracked his speeches and Twitter account, he’s told well over 20 000 lies.
