During Wednesday’s episode of _Jimmy Kimmel Live!_, the host aired a collection of clips showing all the times Trump has used the phrase, “It’s true,” to follow up claims such as, “Trump is one of the only people ever who actually accomplished more than he promised,” and, “Hillary Clinton couldn’t be elected dog catcher.” “The truth really is on the endangered list, you know. President Trump, in his second year as president, he has almost doubled the number of lies he told in the first year,” Kimmel said. “It’s called lying. He’s not misleading, he’s lying. And you know how you can tell he’s lying? Because he’s always telling us it’s true.” Watch the full clip below. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5356231/jimmy-kimmel-trump-its-true-montage/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5356231/jimmy-kimmel-trump-its-true-montage/"},"headline":"Jimmy Kimmel Has a Compilation of the Many Times Trump Has Said 'It's True'","datePublished":"2018-08-02T14:54:33.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:54:07.398Z","description":"\"The truth really is on the endangered list\"","url":"https://time.com/5356231/jimmy-kimmel-trump-its-true-montage/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","Jimmy Kimmel","TV","jimmy kimmel live","Late Night Television"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte38584fcf66918c0/698936dbdb29875d58260552/screen-shot-2018-08-02-at-10-24-14-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte38584fcf66918c0/698936dbdb29875d58260552/screen-shot-2018-08-02-at-10-24-14-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Jimmy-Kimmel-Trump-Its-True-Montage","caption":"","creditText":"ABC","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5356231/jimmy-kimmel-trump-its-true-montage/","name":"Jimmy Kimmel Has a Compilation of the Many Times Trump Has Said 'It's True'"}}]}] ```
