v. Wade overturned and the power to set abortion policy returned to individual states.
Trump’s claim is false. Poll after poll has shown that most Americans – two-thirds or nearly two-thirds of respondents in multiple polls – wish Roe would have been preserved.
He lied about Democrats killing babies “after birth”
Trump claimed that Biden called Black people “super predators” for a decade in the 1990s. rump’s claim is false. Biden never publicly deployed the phrase “super predators” or endorsed the criminological theory behind it (which held that there was a new breed of highly and remorselessly violent young offenders). Biden did, however, refer to “predators on our streets” who were “beyond the pale” while promoting the 1994 crime bill.
Trump said that he deployed the National Guard to Minneapolis in 2020 during the unrest that followed the murder of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer.
This is false. Minnesota Democratic Gov. Tim Walz, not Trump, deployed the Minnesota National Guard during the 2020 unrest;
Trump, complaining about the European Union’s trade practices, claimed that the EU doesn’t accept US products, including American cars.
It’s not true that the European Union won’t take American products, including American cars, though some US exports do face EU trade barriers and though US automakers have often had a hard time gaining popularity with European consumers.
Trump’s claim that the US would alone have had to pay $1 trillion as part of the Paris climate accord is wildly inflated.
Trump claimed that his proposal to impose a 10% tariff on all goods coming into the US would not raise prices on Americans and instead cost other countries.
“It’s just going to cost countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China, and many others,” Trump said.
This is false. Study after study including one from the federal government’s bipartisan US International Trade Commission(USITC), have shown that American consumers and industries bear almost the entire cost of US tariffs, including those duties previously imposed by Trump.
