Ahead of President Donald Trump's state visit to the UK on Tuesday, British TV network Channel 4, whose motto is "Channel 4 is Altogether Different. After all, what’s weird today is accepted tomorrow," will air an entire night dedicated to Trump's lies.
The visit, according to theNew York Times, is the biggest security operation in the nation since King Charles's coronation, and is expected to be met with condemnation and, in some cases, British humor as seen in a Windsor Castle gift shop peddling Trump Epsteint tea cups.
The Channel 4 show, titled "Trump v The Truth," is described as an “unbroken catalogue of over 100 falsehoods, distortions and inaccuracies uttered or written by the US President since taking office in January,” will run over "several hours," and include "text-based fact-checks, which the network said will “offer viewers the truth behind the tweets, speeches and soundbites.”

This, following the network's airing of the second part of a three-part documentary, "The Donald Trump Show," which "uses news footage from TV, podcasts and social media to tell the story of the last nine months of the presidency as an unfolding soap opera.”

That soap opera will fold out in "Trump v The Truth" in the form of brutal fact checks, says Ian Katz, who oversees content for the Channel 4.
“Donald J Trump loves making history. So, on Wednesday Channel 4 will do just that: we’ll show what we believe to be the longest uninterrupted reel of untruths, falsehoods and distortions ever broadcast on television. We hope it will remind viewers how disorientating and dangerous the world becomes when the most powerful man on earth shows little regard for the truth. And if President Trump cares to watch along after the state banquet, he may even clear up a few misconceptions.”
