Swan: "John Lewis is lying in state...how do you think history will remember John Lewis?" Trump: "I don't know. I really don't know. I don't know. I don't know John Lewis. He chose not to come to my inauguration. He chose - I don't uh - I never met John Lewis, actually." — PolitiTweet.org

Swan: "Lyndon Johnson! He passed the Civil Rights Act." Trump: "Ask, ask: how has it worked out? If you take a look at what Lyndon Johnson did. How has it worked out?" Swan: "You think the Civil Rights Act was a mistake?" — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "I did more for the Black community than anybody with the possible exception of Abraham Lincoln, whether you like it or not." Swan: "You believe you did more than Lyndon Johnson, who passed the Civil Rights Act?" Trump: "I think I did, yeah." — PolitiTweet.org

Swan: "What about not hope? What about analysis?" Trump: "I have seen where there is a difference, and I don't want there to be a difference. I don't like that there would be a difference. But with that being said, police have killed white people..." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Swan: "Do you believe, though, Mr. President, that many police treat black people differently from white people?" Trump: "Well, I hope not. I hope not." — PolitiTweet.org

Swan: "What does 'systemic racism' mean to you?" Trump: "...does anybody really answer that question accurately? Does anybody really know?" — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "We now have a 10-year rule. You knock down, you try and knock down...you touch our courthouse, you go to jail for 10 years." The 10-year maximum penalty for damaging federal property is contained in a previous law; it's not an automatic penalty and it's not new. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump told Swan that the courthouse in Portland is a "$600 million building." He told reporters last week that it's a "billion-dollar building." It cost $129 million to build in the late 1990s, the equivalent of just over $200 million in today's dollars. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump continued by talking about how bad the Portland "anarchists" were. In other words, Swan was "fake news" for accurately asking Trump about one thing because he didn't also ask about another thing Trump prefers to talk about. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Swan: "I'm sure you've seen disturbing footage of people in fatigues beating the Navy veteran." Trump: "No no no no no no. No. No. Here you go. Fake news." Swan: "It's not fake news." Trump: "No no." Swan: "It's on video." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump then suggested he just didn't want Maxwell to die in jail, like "her boyfriend." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Swan: "Mr. President, Ghislaine Maxwell has been arrested on allegations of child sex trafficking. Why would you wish such a person well?" Trump: "First of all, I don't know that." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump warned Swan that there won't be a result the night of the election. Swan: "What's wrong with a proper mail-in count?" Trump: "You know why? Because lots of things will happen during that period of time." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump boasted again of his "306 to 223" electoral margin over Hillary Clinton. Clinton earned 232. This is a small thing, but that is at least the 37th consecutive time Trump has said "223." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Swan: “The US troop level in Afghanistan right now (8,600) is roughly the same as it was when you --" Trump: “No, you’re wrong, no.” Swan was right. Trump then argued that Swan was wrong because "very soon," the number will be down from 8,600 to "4,000." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: “I read a lot. I read a lot. They like to say I don’t read. I read a lot. I comprehend extraordinarily well. Probably better than anybody that you’ve interviewed in a long time. I read a lot. I spend a lot of time with – at meetings.” — PolitiTweet.org

Swan: "Look at S. Korea for example. 51M population, 300 deaths." Trump: "You don't know that." S: "I do." T: "You don't know that." S: "You think they're faking their statistics?" T: "Uhhhh...I won't get into that because I have a very good relationship..." 301 deaths. — PolitiTweet.org

This excellent @jonathanvswan interview is yet more evidence that even basic follow-up questioning - like asking wait, hold on, what are you even talking about - immediately exposes Trump's lies. And yet it has almost never happened. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump on non-instant testing: "You have to send it to a laboratory. Let's say that takes a day, let's say it's a day - so it's three or four or five days, there's nothing you can do about that." (There is something you can do about that.) — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump: "There are those that say you can test too much, you do know that." Swan: "Who says that?" Trump: "Oh, just read the manuals. Read the books." Swan: "Manuals? What manuals?" Trump: "Read the books. Read the books." Swan: "What books?" Trump: (Does not answer) — PolitiTweet.org

Trump: "Right now, I think it's under control" @jonathanvswan: "How? 1000 Americans are dying a day" Trump: "They are dying. That's true. And you have - it is what it is. But that doesn't mean we aren't doing everything we can. It's under control as much as you can control it" — PolitiTweet.org

Trump false claims as of 5 minutes into his @jonathanvswan interview: - He put a "ban" on China and Europe - Nobody could get into his Tulsa rally because of Black Lives Matter protesters - Tariffs are paid by China (Americans) - China was having its worst year in 67 (it was 29) — PolitiTweet.org
