Plenty of politicians change their positions, and many of them tend to try to hide their inconsistencies. Few even approach The Donald. 

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee has been roundly criticized for his tendency to change positions and then deny doing so.

Politico fact-checked Trump for one week and found "more than five dozen statements deemed mischaracterizations, exaggerations, or simply false."

Fact-checking Trump isn't easy. As his popularity has grown, The Donald has become even more brazen in his appearances. In March, he contradicted himself in separate interviews just minutes apart.

Most recently, Trump has been claiming that he opposed the Iraq War, a notion that has gone unchallenged by some in the media.

It will be worth watching to see if CNN continues this kind of practice, and whether other media companies adopt similar tactics.
