Trump regularly makes dubious claims about what foreign leaders are telling him, but they usually aren’t checkable. At the G7, though, the other leaders are offering their own accounts at the same time, and: https://t.co/6KVNxtrrry

Trump's claim that he was "just having fun" and "smiling" when he referred to himself as "the chosen one" the other day is a demonstrable lie. Here's the tweet Trump posted trying to rewrite history, followed by the video. pic.twitter.com/Y1VT5diqN2

As the Washington Post first reported, the hospitals Trump visited after massacres in Dayton and El Paso say he was incorrect when he boasted that doctors came out of operating rooms to meet him: https://t.co/NQS79cUJts

Trump said doctors left operating rooms to greet him after mass shootings. An El Paso hospital says that’s not true https://t.co/OvJmSGfs0V

This “94%” statistic continues to be imaginary, though he does have high approval among Republicans. Recent: 84% in Monmouth, 87% in Ipsos, 87% in CNN, 88% in Fox. pic.twitter.com/xkpfU4XGgQ

Good reminder from @TimOBrien that Trump has a very long history of lying uncontrollably when he's panicking over things not going his way:https://t.co/cFCX4RkbZD pic.twitter.com/xExpIkip5q

The spokesman for the Log Cabin Republicans tells me they didn't give Trump an award. This is the second award the president has made up in the last week. https://t.co/BUU8zTqPnQ

He revived his fictional story about Duterte stranding Obama in an airplane. He revived his fictional history of family separation policy. He was wrong about a bunch of other stuff.

Trump July 30: China had its worst growth in "27 years" (accurate)

Trump August 9: Worst growth in "35 years"
Trump yesterday: "A lot of people are saying the worst year they've had in 54 years"
Trump today: "The worst year in 27 years, but I think it was actually 52 or 54 years"
Trump said there were “17,000 people” in this overflow crowd. The arena‘s assistant GM told CNN’s @tarasubramaniam that he estimated 3,500 to 4,000. The fire marshal said they estimated 8,000 to 9,000. pic.twitter.com/Q9vfrPk2Ke

Trott says that Trump thanked him for the alleged award at a 2017 roundtable with auto CEOs. Trott says he wasn’t about to correct Trump in front of CEOs while in Congress, but now he’s out of office and doesn’t care, so he can say Trump made it up.
