Trump boasts of evicting "MS-3" ("MS-Three") gang members with the help of ICE. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump says the Democrats are awarding a contract to build a "wall" around their convention site (I haven't seen this story myself), so they're hypocrites, and we should tell them it should be "open borders" for the DNC. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump repeats his usual nonsense about how traffickers don't use ports of entry, only open stretches of border. Experts say a large percentage of victims are brought in through legal ports; 80% of international victims cross official border points. https://t.co/fbbjutf7s2 — PolitiTweet.org

Trump continues to explain why he is more elite than the elite, saying: "If we go by the old standards: better houses, better schools, made MUCH more money, lived better..." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump tells his usual story about how "we" have better houses and make more money than the so-called Washington Elite. "Why are they elite," he complains, saying "I've always taken offense...I'm more elite than them." The crowd is pretty quiet for much of this. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump on what the US has previously gotten from its economic relationship with China: "Unemployment, and losses, and some cheap pencils. More than we needed." — PolitiTweet.org

"Frankly, unions love it. Labor loves it," Trump says of the USMCA, which is generally opposed by the labor movement in its current form. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump, touting the USMCA, again asks people to think of the song YMCA, which he quarter-sings for a second. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump says he called Warren "Pocahontas" "too early," but don't worry, he's bringing it back. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump keeps telling the story about his China-and-agriculture "conversation" with Ag Secretary Sonny Perdue in slightly but notably different ways that make clear either that this never happened or that he is not remembering it very well. (It has regularly involved a Sir, so) — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump falsely claims that he has eliminated the estate tax. His tax law raised the threshold so that it applies to fewer people, but it has not been eliminated. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
"China is eating the tariffs...they're eating the tariffs." Americans are paying the tariffs. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump repeats his lie that China is having its worst economic year in 57 years, though he knows it's 27 years. He has decided to keep adding additional years; he's gone all the way up to 61 before pulling it back a bit. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump then says "nobody loves the Hispanics more" than his supporter Steve Cortes. He then asks Cortes, "Who do you like more, the country or the Hispanics?" When Cortes apparently says "the country," Trump says, "I don't know." https://t.co/5zl7TnJL5o — PolitiTweet.org

Trump on Steve Cortes: "He happens to be Hispanic, but I've never quite figured it out, because he looks more like a WASP than I do, so I haven't figured that one out." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump is adding to his Sir story about Mattis, saying Mattis told him, "Sir, we have very little ammunition." He says Mattis actually said it was "less" than "very little," then claims that Mattis actually said "We have very little slash NO ammunition." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
"We got Choice for the vets. Choice. Everybody said it was impossible," Trump says of the program created in a Bernie Sanders-John McCain bill signed into law by Barack Obama in 2014. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump repeats his "$40 million" figure for the Mueller investigation. The final tab was $32 million, and the government is getting about $17 million from Paul Manafort as a result of his convictions. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump calls Kavanaugh "a great, brilliant man" and blasts the New York Times for its "smear." He says the Times put out a "major apology"; it was an editors' note, not an apology. He notes that the woman at the center of the alleged Yale incident does not recall it. — PolitiTweet.org

There were at least six sirs in that story. Even one sir is a red flag. A multi-sir story has a negative-percent chance of being true. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Multi-Sir Sir Alert: Trump says his advisers told him not to help Dan Bishop, saying, "sir, don't get involved in that race, sir. You can't come back from 17 points, sir." Bishop was not down 17. https://t.co/eYlsfOCcU4 — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump repeats his false claim that North Carolina's Greg Murphy was up a mere "couple points" before the NC3 special election. Murphy was running in a district Trump won by 24; polls had him up double-digits. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump repeats his false claim that North Carolina's Dan Bishop was down 17 points three weeks before his special election. No poll showed this. (The Trump campaign tweeted me some alleged poll that allegedly showed him down 14; it had no date, source, methodology or sample size.) — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump, making a pitch to Hispanics, says that Hispanics "want the wall." National polling of Hispanics shows strong-majority opposition to the wall. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump is saying his usual things about how the wall is being built "fast" and how he is building "a lot" of it. Zero additional miles have been built during Trump's presidency; 60 miles of replacement barriers had been built. Trump has been arguing that this should count. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump is exaggerating some statistics. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump mentions Hispanic Heritage Month, then asks people if they are Hispanic. He accurately boasts of the record low in Hispanic unemployment -- though, as with African Americans, it's worth noting the trendline. https://t.co/7yefbIixCj — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump boasts that he "didn't see any negative hand gesture" from onlookers during his motorcade ride from the airport. He says he thinks he really thinks he can win the state. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump says that he can't say this under the Me Too movement, but everyone is looking much better than they did three years ago, "including the men." — PolitiTweet.org
