Trumpometer: A scale used to decide on the truthiness of a statement. The scale has a range zero (0) to one hundred (100).
Where: 0 means a total and out and out falsehood, or in new speak, "alternate truth", or "post truth", in The Oxford English Dictionary the simplest definition is quite simply lie.
Where 100: means true, without a shadow of a doubt and backed by reproducible facts from multiple trustworthy sources.
Donald Trump during the last USA general election had this range according to the Politifact web site.
Should be "means true" rather than "mean true", can't get the editorial staff these days
