Trump wrote a column in today’s USA Today which is full of lies about both the Democratic and Republican positions on Medicare.

Another bruising fact-check of POTUS's "Medicare for All" column. Might be a net benefit for Dems hit with the "you'll kill Medicare attack" — that messaging, common in TV ads, getting high profile debunking.https://t.co/smvTk9f4J2

USA Today not only published a White House press release disguised as an “op-ed by Donald Trump,” it is using its Twitter account to blast out the article’s lies to 3.6 million followers. https://t.co/5qpjfDOWHh

well, this is embarrassing. How does he explain the fact that one of the links in the op-ed (to one of our fact checks) shows exactly the opposite of what the president asserted? https://t.co/JFXw2RcR6L

I took a look at your op-ed, @realDonaldTrump. It needs some work.
All of the false and misleading words in the world can’t cover up how your administration and Republicans in Congress are forcing millions of Americans to pay more for health care. pic.twitter.com/SjFjonVBef

An interesting dilemma for opinion editors: The president of the United States writes a guest column for your publication, but it's filled with untrue statements. What do you do? https://t.co/U8pSmx2NE7

This is good, but not as good as, y’know, fact checking BEFORE you run the op-ed. https://t.co/hsXFeeZqLR

Look what Republicans did today:
If you or someone you care about has health problems, they hate you, they really hate you https://t.co/gk6F4pD2on
