@blmskeptical Your’re missing that Trump is a) actually president for three more months and b) could win the election? — PolitiTweet.org

RT @dyerworld: A move that would see many foreign journos with deep knowledge of the US sent packing (also me for 11 years). — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump admin is proposing to limit foreign-outlet journalists living in the US on the I visa (that was me for 4 years in DC at the Toronto Star) to 8 months, plus a maximum of an 8-month extension. Journalists have long stayed for years using this visa. https://t.co/5KracIhC0E — PolitiTweet.org

Trump says "traditionally" you can't win New York, California or Illinois as a Republican, but "why would I lose New York?" He says, "I'm gonna give it a shot." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "Many of the enemy have said it: we're having rallies the likes of which nobody has ever seen before." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump continues on Fauci: "He's a nice guy. He's got a really bad arm. Not a good baseball thrower. But he's a nice guy. The only thing I say is: uh, he's a little bit, sometimes, not a team player." — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Trump after Fox & Friends mentions to him that Fauci is trusted: "It's good if people trust him, but it's not that the people -- *reporters* like him. Because they think he's against me. He's not really against me." — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Asked about his "back and forth" with Fauci, Trump claims "he's a Democrat" (he might be making a claim about his leanings, but Fauci is not registered with a party), that he's good friends with the Cuomos, and "he's been wrong" (Trump has been way, way more wrong). — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Trump repeats his usual false claim that Biden is going to double or triple or even quadruple your taxes, then, as he does, adds, "They actually SAY, 'We're gonna quadruple.'" They do not say this. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Asked what's the plan to live with Covid while staying safe, given the rising numbers, Trump: "Well, we are living with it. And we're having the vaccines coming out very soon. With or without vaccines, we're rounding the turn." We are rounding no turn. https://t.co/zLdrZV2A1v — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump: "Joe lies. And he lies a lot. And he'll say things that are crazy. And he'll think people are supposed to believe him. And they take ads and they put ads in on things that never happened." — PolitiTweet.org

"They did a Hispanic population poll, and I was at 77%," Trump says, referring to a post-debate Twitter poll Telemundo posted that could be clicked by anyone, Hispanic or not. — PolitiTweet.org

Fox & Friends is basically putting Trump through a televised debate prep session, taking him through various possible scenarios and suggesting various ideas. — PolitiTweet.org

Here's Trump's public schedule for tomorrow. (Public schedules don't include all of a president's activities.) https://t.co/fjx67ewypH — PolitiTweet.org

Wild/totally unsurprising how far this nonsense has spread based on a bad initial tweet. https://t.co/IHqbiCNl9j — PolitiTweet.org

Once more: A) Trump *does* do lots of high-dollar fundraising, but B) He was clearly not admitting here to corruption or an actual deal with Exxon. Carry on. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

For those asking (@waltshaub), here's the full transcript of Trump's remarks about Exxon and fundraising. Again, the clip that's circulating has a misleading caption; Trump's point was that it compromises a president to make personal fundraising calls to big CEOs, so he won't. https://t.co/EuGRwQg6Z1 — PolitiTweet.org

I've fact checked Trump for more than four years. He has rarely before, if ever, had a period as comprehensively dishonest as this period right now: https://t.co/q3qCgKyMkm — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Trump's dishonesty is getting worse. Friday to Sunday was one of his most dishonest 3-day periods of the last five years. He made at least 66 *separate* false or misleading claims -- not counting times he repeated those 66. Here are the 66 fact checks: https://t.co/2ErdBpnWqH — PolitiTweet.org

@waltshaub I’ll send you the full quote when I grab it, Walter. He’s been saying this stuff for a few days now - making it clear he’s suggesting Biden is making corrupt bargains, not that he’s admitting he himself has been corrupt. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

@StevenTDennis I frequently think about this voter. I never had her last name, though. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Now, Trump’s suggestion that he himself doesn’t do high-dollar fundraising is nonsense; he’s done a lot of it, granting CEOs access at private “roundtables.” But he wasn’t casually admitting he’s made a corrupt bargain with the head of Exxon. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

For people retweeting without watching the full clip: this quote was not a Trump corruption admission. It was him being defensive about Biden outraising him - saying he COULD easily raise tons of money if he wanted to call up CEOs and make corrupt bargains, but he won’t do that. https://t.co/DhtwSyIjVC — PolitiTweet.org
