Not even a full list, but there you go. For anyone that wants to defend Trump's lies you can start there.


The very first "lie" on that list is full of bologna Trump said he is cutting illegal immigration in half, that is future tense. He didn't say it happened already, which this article FALSELY claims.

Jesus H Christ.

Edit - And on further investigation the claim is based on data for three months during fiscal year 2019, which show a drop of more than 60%.

So...

LMAO

Oh good, so it turns out you really can't defend a single lie.


Trump - We cut immigration by half (talking about a 3 month period)
Immigration goes down by 60% in those months

BUT BUT...TRUMP LIED

Like... are you hearing yourself, bud?

He didn't say it was over a 3 month period. Do you not even read what Trump posts, bud? Not really keeping score, but with the other posts, you're about 0-3 for successfully defending his lies.


Wrong

In small type the ad attributes the "cutting illegal immigration in half" claim to a Fox News segment from September. In that segment, Ken Cuccinelli, acting director of the Citizenship and Immigration Service, said, "We're down more than 50% since May, in just three months.",

The choice of May as a baseline was not a coincidence. That month, the number of people apprehended and deemed inadmissible at the southwest border -- which is used as a proxy for the level of illegal immigration -- hit 144,116, by far the highest of any month under Trump.
Cuccinelli was right. In August and again in September, the number of people apprehended and deemed inadmissible was less than half of the May figure: 62,707 in August and 52,546 in September.

Please apologize for calling me wrong. It was not a post. It was an ad at the world series. If you're gonna try and call me out, atleast fact check first.
