18 checks for “Eric Trump”
“PM Modi should postpone his US visit if he has a 56-inch chest. America has expelled Indians from the country with handcuffs, masks on their faces, and their heads bowed down. Modi ji could have at least talked to Trump so his citizens could be sent back to India respectfully. Narendra Modi”
“When asked if her plan would outlaw private health insurance for 180 million Americans, (Harris) replied, ‘Let's just eliminate all of it.’”
PolitiFact says: She said it, ut Trump’s version of Harris’ comment ignores that the statement, "Let's eliminate all of that," referred to delays and paperwork from waiting for insurance company approval for treatments.
“There are 40 million people in America today who get their health insurance through the Affordable Care Act. His [Donald Trump's] plan is to throw every one of them off that — that legislation.”
FactCheck.org says: That worst-case-scenario figure is based on Trump not replacing the ACA with anything. He says he would replace it with something — though he has given no details on what that would be.
“People were getting the [COVID-19] vaccine in record numbers” until President Joe Biden implemented vaccine mandates.”
FactCheck.org says: The daily number of people getting vaccinations had slid near a low point when President Joe Biden announced sweeping vaccine mandates.
“While he was president, President Trump never encouraged Americans to get vaccinated.”
“Hunter Biden was chairman of the World Food Program, which just won the Nobel Peace Prize. Eric Trump, Donald J Trump Jr, Ivanka Trump are banned from ever operating a charity again because they stole donations to children with cancer.”
PolitiFact says: World Food Program USA, whose board Hunter Biden previously served on as chairman, did not win the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize. And the Trump children are not barred from operating charities.
“Vice President Biden and President Obama assembled a pandemic playbook to make sure that America was prepared and protected. The Trump administration disbanded the pandemic response team that was given to them.”
“Donald Trump tweeted in 2009 that he "would never let thousands of Americans die from a pandemic" if president.”
FactCheck.org says: There is no evidence ever Trump posted that tweet.
“Two-thirds of Americans disapprove of Donald Trump not wearing a face mask in public.”
PolitiFact says: One poll supports his exact claim, and several others show that roughly 66% of Americans want Trump to wear a mask.
“After Nov. 3, coronavirus will magically all of a sudden go away and disappear.”
FactCheck.org says: While it’s impossible to predict the future, experts say it’s unlikely that the virus will simply go away.
“Eric Trump was taken out of context when he said the virus would magically disappear”
“President Trump just announced that the ‘biological’ lab in Wuhan where the COVID-19 virus was created was ‘funded’ by President Barak (sp) Hussein Obama in 2015 to the tune of $3,800,000 American dollars!”
PolitiFact says: The best evidence so far says the virus was not created in a lab. The lab in Wuhan got about $600,000 over a five year period.
“Antibody tests will "support our efforts to get Americans back to work by showing us who might have developed the wonderful, beautiful immunity" to the novel coronavirus.”
FactCheck.org says: The tests do have the potential to relay valuable information about who might already have immunity and how widely COVID-19 has spread. But so far, the tests are not widely available and many are unreliable.
“Trump "shipped China 17 tons of American masks and medical supplies -- our masks and supplies. Supplies we need now.”
FactCheck.org says: The ad leaves the misleading impression that medical equipment donated by U.S.-based organizations and businesses to China early in the global coronavirus outbreak came from the Trump administration.
“Trump gave China more than praise. He shipped China 17 tons of American masks and medical supplies. Our masks and supplies. Supplies we need now.”
Washington Post says: These were donations by private charities and public companies; all the State Department did was supply planes that would have been empty anyway.
