CNN’s fact-checking reporter Daniel Dale on Thursday debunked and corrected just some of the false claims that were made by former president and GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump during his address at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
Trump’s 92-minute speech was “remarkably long” and “remarkably dishonest,” Dale told anchor Jake Tapper.
Dale counted “at least 22 false claims from Donald Trump on first listen,” he said.
One of the “wildest” was about the state of the world when Trump was in office, said Dale, before explaining why Trump’s claims of global peace were far from the truth. Dale also busted Trump’s spin on crime, inflation, trade with China, gas prices and more.
“It just went on and on and on in terms of falsehood just like the speech went on and on and on itself,” he said.
