claimed he tried to stop chants of “send her back” directed at a Congresswoman, when he did no such thing?

During a rally, when Trump invoked Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, the crowd began chanting “send her back.” Omar, born in Somalia, America, successfully completed the legal process to become a US citizen where she had lived for two decades.

Trump claimed that he started speaking immediately to cut off the crowd, but video of the event shows that he waited for the chant to end on its own.

Trump had previously said that four Congresswomen of color who opposed him should “go back” from where they came. Of the four, only Ilhan-Omar isn’t US-born.

said he’s “the best thing that ever happened to Puerto Rico”?

He added, “We did a great job in Puerto Rico. They don’t like to give me the credit for it, but we did a great job. I have many Puerto Rican friends. I have a real understanding of Puerto Rico.”

In another instance, he said he’s taken better care of Puerto Rico than “any living human being,” despite withholding disaster relief funds, claiming the death toll was fake, and infamously throwing paper towels at victims.

On describing his handling of the crisis, Trump said, “I give ourselves a 10.”

said a report about having prepared talking points was fake news, before photos of the talking points were released?

The talking points in question were various disparaging remarks about four Congressional lawmakers Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.), Ilhan Omar (Minn.), Ayanna Pressley (Mass.), and Rashida Tlaib (Mich.). While his tweet claimed there were no talking points prepared, clear pictures of them surfaced. He had also said the four women, despite being US citizens, should “go back” to their own countries, and said that they were “incapable of loving America.”

Additionally, the upper right corner of the page had the words, “some people,” and “alcaida” prominently hand-written. The former is a common justification that Trump uses (e.g. “I’m intelligent. Some people would say I’m very, very, very intelligent”), while the latter appears to be a misspelling of Al-Qaeda. Trump has also misspelled his officials’ name, his wife’s name, and his own name.
