According to CNN, "Trump made more than 30 false claims at the Thursday debate." Do the math. The debate was 90 minutes. Two people debating in equal segments (45 minutes each), theoretically. The moderators took some of the time to ask questions. Thus in less than 45 minutes the ex-president spent the majority of the time making "false claims."
Some of the "false claims",
"...some Democratic-led states allow babies to be executed after birth, that every legal scholar and everybody in general wanted Roe v. Wade overturned, that there were no terror attacks during his presidency, that Iran didn’t fund terror groups during his presidency, that the US has provided more aid to Ukraine than Europe has, that Biden for years referred to Black people as “super predators,” that Biden is planning to quadruple people’s taxes, that then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi turned down 10,000 National Guard troops for the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, that Americans don’t pay the cost of his tariffs on China and other countries, that Europe accepts no American cars, that he is the president who got the Veterans Choice program through Congress, and that fraud marred the results of the 2020 election."
Wow! How can anyone think this man is a good candidate for the president of the United States? And, he's been making false claims for years, including when he was president. What is it that a large group of people think he is someone to respect? I'm hurt, sad, and flabbergasted.
