Trump's ABC News town hall: Four Pinocchios, over and over again

Last edited Wed Sep 16, 2020, 10:51 AM - Edit history (1)

At the ABC News town hall Tuesday night, President Trump was challenged by ordinary voters in ways that he rarely experiences in the safe spaces of Fox News, where he regularly answers questions. But he still retreated to false or misleading talking points that he offers in his usual venues.

The Washington Post gave a tour of 24 false and misleading claims he made at the Philadelphia town hall.

I am pretty sure there is a paywall associated with the WP link, but just to say it is a rehash of the lies that he has kept pushing over and over again.
