The Post's new standard: Not as bad as Trump?

 Says the Washington Post this morning (in a story paywalled on the Post site but available on Apple News, here)…

Through April 26, Biden has made 67 false or misleading statements, according to a Washington Post Fact Checker analysis of every speech, interview, tweet or public statement made by the president. That compares to 511 such statements in Trump’s first 100 days.

Not sure that's exactly rejoiceworthy (although the Post hastens to add Biden's transgressions weren't all outright lies, exactly, but more like "subtle truth-stretching"). 

As for me, I'm subtly disappointed.
