The president is holding a rally in Manchester, NH, and is saying a lot of false things.

A lot of false things.
The audio is not great ... but I do believe that Donald J. Trump called someone unhinged.
Lying about tax cuts.
Trump mentions Chris Wallace, and the crowd boos.

They know which reporters ask him tough questions that make him look foolish.

Then Trump insults Wallace.
"And by the way, Mexico is paying for the wall."

No. They haven't sent a peso.

That is a bald-faced lie.

"Now that the wall is almost complete."

No. There's like 20 miles of fence where previously there was no barrier at all.

Another bald-faced lie.
NO HE DID NOT PASS VA CHOICE

That would be this president.

Took a detour there to lie about the payment to Iran.

That was their money, frozen after the 1979 hostage-taking, plus interest. Courts ruled he had to give it to them, which Obama did at the signing of the nuclear deal.
"We banned Europe very early."

Nope. That is a lie.

Trump wanted to avoid that because it would spook the markets.
Now claiming he did a great job with the pandemic.

A series of historical facts appear to contradict this assertion.
1) The president downplayed the virus threat for 7 weeks, AFTER he received info on how deadly it was in China
2) He claimed -- falsely -- that his partial travel ban on China had solved the problem.
3) He failed to ramp up testing or production of medical supplies quickly.
4) He dismantled the pandemic response team President Obama had created after the 2014 Ebola outbreak.
5) He ignored a January 2017 briefing the outgoing Obama team gave him on the danger of a pandemic.
6) He ignored his own administration's pandemic assessment in 2019.
Now demanding that football resume.

Claims that football players will not get seriously ill from the virus.

"These are big strong guys. They'll be just fine."
"We will always protect patients with pre-existing conditions."

No. That is a lie, based on his CURRENT LAWSUIT TO END THEM and his SUPPORT FOR A BILL THAT ENDED THEM.

Sen. John McCain killed that bill with his thumbs-down vote.
"We will make America safe again.
We will make America great again."

He, um, HAS BEEN PRESIDENT FOR 3 1/2 YEARS.
Okay, he is done and clapping for himself.

Bye.
