Trump July 30: China had its worst growth in "27 years" (accurate) Trump August 9: Worst growth in "35 years" Trump yesterday: "A lot of people are saying the worst year they've had in 54 years" Trump today: "The worst year in 27 years, but I think it was actually 52 or 54 years" — PolitiTweet.org

@_cingraham Here's what the sheet looked like at the Star (@EdTubb put this together): https://t.co/9m9vMmxere — PolitiTweet.org

@_cingraham Yep! Many of them he repeats so many times that I know the identifier by heart. Most I don’t, but I know there is an identifier. And some he’s only said a few times I have to search some terms and see if there is an identifier. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
@_cingraham So any time he says there’s a 500B trade deficit with China, that one gets tagged as “China trade deficit.” Then I can just look to see how many times that tag appears. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
@_cingraham It’s boring - I just have a spreadsheet. Each false claim is listed by date, event, kind of event, and up to four category tags (“Democrats,” “South Korea,” whatever). It also has an item identifier, so we can auto-count how many times he’s made the VA Choice one or any other. — PolitiTweet.org

84 false claims is the most we've counted from Trump in the six weeks I've checked at CNN. His all-time record for a week is 240, the week before the 2018 midterms. https://t.co/YjXvOGHs2m — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump spent most of last week at a golf club. He made 84 false claims last week. He had two events. He made 27 false claims at one of them and 26 at the other. A lowlights breakdown and the full list, from me and @tarasubramaniam: https://t.co/YjXvOGHs2m — PolitiTweet.org

Trump tells the veterans that veterans unemployment has hit the lowest level ever recorded. That was true earlier in the year, but not anymore; it was lower than it is now in 2000. It declined from 7.4% to 4.5% under Obama, and it has declined from 4.5% to 3.4% under Trump. https://t.co/C3pctKTIz4 — PolitiTweet.org

Trump complains that the "fake news" will find a veteran who "wasn't treated perfectly" by the VA health system, even though most people are being treated great, and put them at the top of the news. There is cheering and laughing. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump, in this official speech to vets, is now talking about his campaign slogans, and how he might have to change Make America Great Again. He says "this is not a campaign speech" -- there is laughter -- "so I will not say Keep America Great. But we're gonna keep America Great." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
(Trump was smiling when he said this, and people in the crowd did laugh. I'm just personally wary of declaring he's joking about anything, because, like, buying Greenland.) https://t.co/FTQWklxgDr — PolitiTweet.org

Trump jokes about giving himself the Medal of Honor at #AMVETS75th. It's a joke. The crowd chuckles.
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump, who got draft deferments to avoid Vietnam service, on the Medal of Honor, with a smile: "I wanted one but they told me I don't qualify. I said could I give it to myself anyway? They said I don't think that's a good idea." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump begins his speech to veterans by repeating, for more than the 85th time as president, his false claim that he got the Veterans Choice program passed after more than 44 years of failure. Obama signed it into law in 2014. "We got it, so congratulations," Trump said to cheers. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump, of "trade wars are good and easy to win" fame, is now saying his trade war isn't his trade war: "Somebody said it's Trump's trade war. This isn't my trade war. This is a trade war that should've taken place a long time ago by a lot of other presidents." — PolitiTweet.org

There is a lot going on in Trump's explanation for canceling on Denmark. A transcript and two fact checks: https://t.co/x6GySE1Dmr — PolitiTweet.org

Trump says the prime minister of Denmark was “nasty” and “inappropriate” by publicly rejecting his unsolicited proposal to buy Greenland in the way she did. He says she could’ve just said no, and he’s not going to let her talk to him that way. — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
I looked to see if Trump had ever made a false claim about the time of day before and found this quote from Spy magazine in 1991: “A mobster who knew Trump socially said of him once, ‘He’d lie to you about what time of day it is -- just for the practice.’” https://t.co/FE7xyKhbVQ — PolitiTweet.org

Trump says, looking back at the media in the room, "That's a lot of people back there for like an 11 o'clock speech." It is 2:40 PM.
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Trump had two events last week, the New Hampshire rally and the Pennsylvania “energy” speech. He also spoke to reporters and did two New Hampshire interviews. How many false claims do you think he made? Winner gets to feel smart. — PolitiTweet.org

There is a Jewish concept of the Messiah, but it is a human figure, not God. A theologically though not factually correct edit would be "They love him like he is the Moshiach." — PolitiTweet.org
Daniel Dale @ddale8
Saying Jews love someone "like he is the second coming of God" is a confusing thing to say about Jews, who do not believe in a second coming of God https://t.co/x4TKjj5HRe — PolitiTweet.org

Here's Trump's public schedule for today. In addition to his speech to veterans in Louisville, he's headlining a fundraising event for Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin. (Public schedules don't include all of a president's activities.) https://t.co/UW4zLaovPy — PolitiTweet.org
