This is just too sweet not to post...it ought to echo in spitbubbles head all day long!!

Fact-checking Trump’s announcement of a national emergency

To summarize:

  • Trump misstates the rationale behind the National Emergencies Act (of course he does...he doesn't seem to understand anything about our govt)
  • wrong on the amount of money spent on illegals
  • continues to lie about how drugs get into the country (https://www.dea.gov/sites/default/f...18 2018 NDTA final low resolution.pdf#page=31)
  • continues to lie that his wall is already being built
  • continues to lie about El Paso's crime rates
  • wrong on Israeli walls
  • continues to lie about NAFTA upgrade paying for the wall
  • as usual, tries to blame other for his mistakes (this is your vaunted business manager and God like negotiator!)
and on and on and on...

What might be more interesting than these continual "Fact Checks" that are a requirement every time Trumps speaks would be a list of what Trump says that is actually true. It would be shorter and better fit the attention span of the prototypical Trump supporter.
