President Trump used Sunday's White House briefing to repeat some of his favorite false claims about the coronavirus crisis and to make some new ones.

Trump falsely claimed, again, that he"inherited" a defective coronavirus test; the faulty test was developed this year. He falsely claimed, again, that"nobody ever thought" there would be a crisis like this; there were years of warnings. And he falsely claimed, again, that his travel restrictions on China and Europe, for which he exempted large groups of travelers, amounted to a complete"ban.

Travel restrictionsThe President responded to questions regarding criticism of his administration's slow response to the coronavirus by touting travel restrictions he announced at the end of January and in mid-March. In a heated exchange with CBS News White House Correspondent Weijia Jiang, Trump said"I did a ban, where I'm closing up the entire country.

Trump should be entered into the Guinness book for holding the record number of false claims of any president in world history.

LIES!!! Not mis statements, no falsehoods, not inaccuracies but deliberate, blatant lies. Start calling them what they are & start calling the out to his face. Not doing somis a massive injustice to the American people!!! StopAiringTrump

Are American voters aware of his lies and negligence or will they vote for him again?

Communist News Network saying Trump is lying. Now that's funny!

CNN is non stop mocking birds....Your ratings are so low how are you staying a float? (wink) WE KNOW.I think people who do watch CNN likes reality soap opera shows...FAKE NEWS CRAP!

You are very FakeNews!

Such garbage.

Oh, come on, CNN, making false claims is how you make your pieces of gold.

Correction: He told the truth with a little exaggeration for emphasis, and it made you cry because the people see through your BS.

Unfollow. Report news not anger.

CNN is just comical now. The bias is unrelenting. Good thing no one watches.

Who was your Male reporter that attended - his pushing of the president was excellent - give him congrats from the UK

Move to china propaganda CNN

They aren't false just because you don't like them.

Seriously, it's like he doesn't even have a job. Just rants on camera

You mean correcting your false timeline? You at Fake News/CNN are still butt hurt over him showing your hypocrisy for the world to see, using your own words.

STFU STFU STFU STFU STFU STFU STFU...........

Leftist Propaganda.

Lie lie lie All Trump knows how to do

CNN is fake news.

😭

Fake President who is killing Americans

Imagine 3 CNN writers wrote this article all pointing to the negatives of President Trump. Not a single point to show anything good that he has done. This is pure propaganda by the left. Pathetic people. So lost on how to defeat the Trump machinery.

realDonaldTrump, don't support the overthrow of the legit anticorruption gov't in Kosovo in the middle of the pandemic. Say no to corrupt politicians! RespectTheWillOfKosovoPeople foxnews cnn nytimes cbcnews newsweek huffpost ap washingtonpost abc wsj reuters

China National News =CNN

PresidentNumbNuts

The language of the article sounds like a hit-piece rather than journalism. Also, something interesting about the development of the human mind is that it takes a couple years to realize what one knows isn't what another knows. This develops, typically, by 4 years of age.

The hypocrisy

Wow smh

Liars.

Is that a press release by China Communist Party again? My sincere condolences to your ratings.

Same headlines every day. The rest of the government - the ones we elected to serve us sit on their asses and shake their heads. Maybe the intelligence agencies who he has humiliated, will shut him up. Someone with authority grow some balls.

Tough when fake news always tells the lies than blames on Trump.

Not all rich people are intelligent and wise, many are just lucky trumpcovidfails

CNN your the Fake one. Why are you still on the air?

Puto

reading through these comments and I can't find a single one supporting

An

do people still watch CNN? I don't know any

Is CNN the Chinese News Network now?

Are y'all even news?

Why say “false claims”? That makes it sound like some sort of hones mistakes. They are outright LIES!

No need to rewrite this entry into the annals of our history books. It is already a doubleplusgood rendition of current events. However, make a footnote: it may need to be redone in case of a future Republican president. E.g. 'Trump was bad, but he was not as Hitler as _______.'

CNN followers I ask you: isn't CNN's coverage a lot like the movie 'Groundhog Day'? Do you really enjoy reading, ad nauseam, their predictable slant on Trump's every utterance?

CNN is China propaganda.

What was his take on The Last Dance on ESPN? Ask him tomorrow. I'm sure he'll have a view. Seems like that's what a lot more people were watching that than your mindless broadcast of each minute of his belligerent, nonsensical rantings.

CNN this is getting out of hand YOUR NEWS NETWORK IS PHONY

CNN is a fake news portal This statement is duly verified by space x founder elonmusk for spreading false news on ventilator delivery by this great gentleman elonmusk

🤥 Pinocchio at it again...

Yet another hit piece on Trump full of falsehoods, misrepresentations and fake news straight out of the Chinese propaganda arm of CNN (Chinese News Network). There Chinese masters will be well pleased.

Why'd you air it then?

What to do he is like that but very straightforward president

On the next briefing somebody should ask Trump: -why are your eyelids white and your face looks like an old leather baseball glove? -did you verbally bullied all those women you sexually assaulted? -when you stole 1 million $ from the vets using your Foundati, did you feel guilty

Oh look, the Commie News Network stomping on the man again!

I‘m surprised CNN still exist - Elon Musk

say what?

Why the Media still covering his rants? They should cover the governors, the scientists, the experts not this egomaniac deranged man.

CNN's butt hurt continues.

That means the dead will also be resurrected, right?

It should seem impressive when someone like him can speak with such tenacity and still get facts wrong, but it isn't..

CNN is too fake to fact check anything.

I love the RONA RALLY! Thank God everyday we were blessed with Trump.

why are u people against trump

So how about you stop broadcasting it?

He sure as hell didn't he

Fact check: Trump did host rallies, play golf as as COVID-19 outbreak ramped upA social media post implied that President Donald Trump was golfing or campaigning as the coronavirus spread. We find this to be true. He was social distancing from the problem at hand See why our ruling was 'True.' Because it was? The 'media' in this country conveniently 'forgets' the President was being advised by the WHO & the good folks at the CDC. You know, Dr. Fauci, the one whose models haven't been right once? The one who was on tv telling Americans they had nothing to worry about in Febuary? SMH!
