Earlier, asked about his praise of China's handling of the virus, Trump claimed, "No, no, I didn't say one way or the other." Just not at all true. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump's claim that Mattis "didn't do good on ISIS. I took over 100% of the ISIS caliphate" is absurd. The end of the caliphate was liberated about 3 months after Mattis left, but much progress occurred under Mattis. (And some under Obama. And the Kurds did much of the fighting.) — PolitiTweet.org

Asked about sharp criticism of his fitness from top officials Bolton, Kelly and Mattis, Trump says, "These are people that I let go. These are disgruntled former employees to put it in a nice way." (Mattis resigned. And.) — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump: "Do you know what disinformation is?" (He is accusing The Atlantic/Biden of being perpetrators.) — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "I was never a fan of John McCain. I never thought he treated our vets well. He didn't do the job." He declines this time to take credit for McCain's Veterans Choice bill. — PolitiTweet.org

A voter asks Trump about his reported comments about referring to soldiers as suckers and losers. Trump says, "Oh, okay. It was a fake statement." He adds, "I never made those statements." — PolitiTweet.org

As he boasts about stocks, Trump is reminded by Stephanopoulos that only half the jobs are back. Trump says, "George: stocks are owned by everybody." Just over half of Americans own stock, according to 2020 polls. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump, who has made an extensive effort to roll back environmental regulations, says he has gotten "things done like nobody's ever gotten. When you look at -- including environmental things." — PolitiTweet.org

Asked by a Trump voter about behavior some have called unpresidential, and what he'd do differently in term 2 to have a more unified message, Trump says, "So, I'm fighting a battle. It's a big battlefield. And I have a lot of forces against me..." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump falsely/misleadingly claims that Biden agreed with Bernie that they will "go to socialized medicine." ("Socialized" is subjective, but Biden very much has not agreed to Sanders's Medicare-for-All proposal, which was a major dispute between him and Sanders in the primary.) — PolitiTweet.org

Trump is telling his story about how he had to make a decision, whether to run Obamacare well or let it run badly since that'd be better politics for him, and he chose to run it well. (He is simultaneously arguing that he essentially got rid of Obamacare.) — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump falsely claims that getting rid of the individual mandate essentially repealed Obamacare. Pre-existing-conditions protections, Medicaid expansion, marketplaces, subsidies, and a bunch of other very important provisions continue to exist. — PolitiTweet.org

Incredible. A voter tells Trump that Obamacare brought protections for people with pre-existing conditions, like her, into existence. Trump tells her that Democrats won't provide protections for people with pre-existing conditions. — PolitiTweet.org

Asked why he keeps talking about Democratic states, given that they're all American states, Trump just repeats his claim that Democratic-run states are the ones doing "badly." — PolitiTweet.org

A woman says she's worried about a possible second or third wave of unemployment, people being laid off in the months to come. Trump says he wants to see "some additional stimulus." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump claimed that Joe Biden said in March that the pandemic is "totally over-exaggerated." If anyone on his campaign or elsewhere has any idea what he might be talking about, feel free to get in touch. — PolitiTweet.org

I think this is by far the toughest grilling Trump has faced as president -- by these voters. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
The Black voter continues to talk about the long history of racism and Black communities being failed by various presidents. Trump says, "I hope there's not a race problem...there's none with me." — PolitiTweet.org

Asked by a Black American about when exactly America has been "great" for Black people in ghettoes that've faced redlining and other problems, Trump says, "We have tremendous African American support," "in the polls." — PolitiTweet.org

Asked about police violence against Black people, Trump keeps talking about "chokers" who "choke." Pressed, he says, "I can only say this: that the police in this country have done generally a great job." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump is falsely suggesting New York City was safer under Giuliani as mayor than it is now. There has been a 2020 spike, but crime levels remain way lower than they were even after Giuliani-era improvements. https://t.co/8OgJbdJDtW — PolitiTweet.org

Goodness. Trump says Churchill was dishonest but still a great leader because he went on rooftops during Nazi bombing and said "everything's going to be good." Churchill did not speak from rooftops. He did not say "everything's going to be good." https://t.co/V10FobBwEC — PolitiTweet.org

As he bashes Democrats for comments about the virus they did not actually make, Trump is reminded he claimed himself the virus was going to disappear, Trump says he still says that: "It's going to disappear." Man. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump repeats his usual fantasy talk about how, before the virus, people who didn't get along were starting to get along because of how well the country was doing. — PolitiTweet.org
