> One possibility is that the Biden White House probably outright lies less than the Trump White House did.

More likely it's not a lie because the POTUS actually believes it's true. It's not a lie if you sincerely believe it right?

Like how he keeps saying that gas was $5/gallon when he took office [1] (it was $2.39/gallon).

Or how he claims that his own son died in Iraq [2] (he died in the USA).

Though the best example would be the tale of Cornpop [3], in which a young Biden, working as a life guard at a city pool, tangles with a razor armed thug, himself with just his wits and a steel chain. It's entirely possible he thinks this actually happened.
