foxnews and Donald Tump are so worthless. Isn’t it funny how the right doesn’t even believe a fact check. So want is it that they’ll believe? Seems to me they are brainwashed by this nutjob. So sad. I can’t imagine.

MSM uses numbers to implement fear in Americans. Why are they not explaining the statistics of covid19. If there is 10 million people in one state and 1000 people have contracted the virus, that is less than 0.0001%. Factcheck fearforelection qanon draintheswamp wwg1wga

How can fake news fact check anything?

ratemyskyperoom

This is an extremely inaccurate and politically biased so called fact checker .... not to mention he looks like Sheldon Cooper and makes people want to laugh when they watch him propagate his ridiculous misinformation and half truths in his reports.

What would we do without you Daniel? Thank you.

If there were 10 million ventilators and 500 million testing capabilities, 50 million beds etc ,left by the last administration,why weren’t they used in this pandemic?

Nice conjob coverup of obamaworstpresidentever

Have you fact checked your reporting over the last 4 years?

fact check this - covid is a scam and you are all being lead around like sheep - do your own research instead of suckling on the teats of the mainstream media

Politics He lied to get in the White House🤥🤥🤥. He lied at inauguration 🤥🤥🤥. He’s lied every time his mouth opens since taking office 🤥🤥🤥.

Can The Wolrd help Zimbabweans with arms. Pls help! It's time for Zimbabweans to remove The terrorist organization called ZANU Pf and Mnangagwa! If ZANU Pf is removed, you won't see Zimbabweans flocking to SA. Pls retweet !

Obama is becoming a desperate man. Joe legacy is going to be that of the most corrupt President since Nixon.

He doesn't know how to tell the truth

Pink This is NOT TRUE if POTUS lies about anything those Democrats would start Impeachment IMMEDIATELY THEY ARE JUST WAITING FOR THE SLIGHTEST SLIP UP. DO NOT BELIEVE IT! USE YOUR HEAD! DEMOCRATS HATE POTUS, HE DOES NOT LIE. WAKE UP WALKAWAY

Exactly what

¡Que lo 'decapiten' en las elecciones! .-

Pink Brain dead Biden is another left wing tool. Unfortunately he has a hard remembering his own name these days. Fact checks that guy. Sexual deviant.

Kinda like how has been covering up everything about Joe Biden and Hunter Biden and their personal masseuse business from China

Pink Trump was dishonest full stop.!

CNN is a mouthpiece of infidels and stand to do anything to achieve relevance even when your only advocacy is in praise Lnonblonde of the Devil . Why rise up against President Trump on ultimate important matters regarding Life & the economy.

Liars cant help it. There whole lives depend on lies. What else can they do? Well more and more and more lies.

And has been FOS every day of the last 4 years.

Donald Trump tell a lie 50% of the time he open his mouth .

CNN discussing honesty 😂

What do you expect from the man that holds the Guinness world book of records for untruthfulness in every category of the spoken word?

Love fact checks❣️

What about Biden and his groping accusations? When you going to fact check that?

Using the Lincoln Memorial as a propaganda stunt is just beyond words. There is nothing Trump will not use to get reelected. He will disgrace everything and anything this country holds up to the highest honor. The Lincoln Memorial has been defaced and slimmed by Donald Trump.

FAKE NEWS. Truth is, CNN’s so called reporting and stories cannot withstand objective facts and truth delivered regularly by President Trump. CNN has lied and been so wrong so often, they have ZERO credibility.

Always.

All *45 knows is lying. He coordinated unlawfully with a hostile foreign power. Women are property to him.

But he is always dishonest. Has he ever told the truth about anything? He is a pathological liar. He should be committed indefinitely.

I’m so happy I missed it! Beats me why anyone would bother

Yup bull face liar ‘ladro’

Fake news continues

Why don't the News Reporters just call Trump out on Prime Time and say' YOU ARE LYING. AND WE CAN PROVE IT SO LET'S GO TO COURT NOW BIG MOUTH AND SEE YOU GET TRASHED IN PUBLIC !! '

Why can’t Trump tell the truth?He lies every day.if his mouth is moving he’s lying.

Are we still treating this like news

Pink The question is: Has Trump EVER been honest?

TRUMP2020

Trump told the truth about China CNN‘s trying to hide it because their in bed with them it will all be out shortly

Pink lamest headline ever. cnn really is the worst

AudreyGarden Does anyone at this point expect trump to tell the truth?

Trump 2020

Chill out fake news

最后牺牲是美国人

OMG! Did he do what we have all come to expect of him—LIE?

The definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.

CNN isn’t any better.

Once a liar, always a liar

He's a sick sick man.

Instead of “false claims,” “misinformation” and such. Can we please just call them what the are? BALD-FACED LIES! TrumpLiesAmericansDie FactsMatter TruthMatters LiesLiesLies

Shocking. Trump told a bunch of lies on his propaganda network. No one saw that coming. 🙄

What news? Everything they report is fake anyway, right? Why even watch?

No one lies more than CNN

Just want to thank Daniel Dale and his team for relentlessly checking our liar-in-chief’s false statements. It’s an exhausting job but absolutely necessary.

Fox gives him the forum and he does what he does best.

Yes don't be yellow open up and kill a fellow 70000 more, WTF has this country come too

realDonaldTrump DonaldJTrumpJr GOP

Pink Is someone looking into TRUMP FAMILY CHEATING? Its His Only Game. TheTrumpPandemic TheTrumpPresidencyIsOver TrumpFailedAmerica

FIRE TRUMP WE DONT NEED HIS BULLSHIT.

You are fake news

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💕😂😂. Irony is indeed dead for FakeNews CNN!

Ahhh surely not!! Not the Donald.

In other words, lies. C’mon CNN, why are afraid to use that word?

Fact check yourself, CNN! You are Fake News!

Democrat operatives

‘Trump town hall’ was pure trumpery Trumpery; something without use or value; rubbish; trash; worthless stuff; nonsense; twaddle

Nothing new

Let’s approach this in a different way. When Trump says something truthful, keep the audio ON. When he lies, BLEEP HIM. That way we in have to hear him say a few words every time he’s on TV. I look forward to that!!! realDonaldTrump

Yep And no one dare challenge Dear Leader

You guys just won't stop will you?

FAKE NEWS!!! LEFTIST ACTIVISTS TAKE OVER MEDIA OUTLETS!!!!😝

Here's how blind society as a whole is. Don't any of you remember the headlines for weeks about the Chinese govt not being able to control the riots and protests spreading across the country and then BOOM, overnight it stopped due to this virus?

Again? Thank god we have a trustworthy, unbiased, and high integrity news source to keep tab on honesty.

CNN is a POS. How do you expect anyone to believe your BS over the President when you’ve put forth such effort to have him removed? You no longer report news, you try to create it. Like Anderson standing in a hole so it looks like a storm flooded the area. It’s a lie.

Yes but this is Fox News. Facts are optional. Literally.

I wish CNN would spend some time fact checking Biden, Comey, Brennan, Strzok, Mueller, Priestap, Page, McCabe, etc...

Shocking

Who watched that?

Triggered....

What else is new 😒

Let’s Blame Rupert Murdoch ..... for this insidious creation of America’s Worst !!!! The making of a buck at ALL COSTS .....a collection of idiots, liars, scammers under the guise of a news agency .....it’s where journalist rejects go to expire

Who fact check CNN China News Network

realDonaldTrump is a liar! Lifelong 💩 human

No. He wasn’t. CNN lies.

Let’s call it what it is; TraitorTrump went on FoxNews to lie, feed his Cult45 more kool-aid. TrumpLiesPeopleDie

It's weird how you don't do any of these fact checks with any other politicians....or at least they don't seem to be pushed as much. Maybe it's just the way my feed chooses to show but seems very partial.

If this was a “ Town Hall” why were there no questions from the “ townspeople” ,just Trump propoganda

LIED. He lied.

TrumpOwnsEveryDeath

, this us a great example of what makes you so frustrating. You abuse your media presence in our living rooms by telling us what we SHOULD think and talk about, not WHAT IS. Just give us the facts about what the President said, and let us figure it out.

Your a joke cnn people know what's going on

If you don’t like his answers you do a tow hall with him!

Even CNN is watching FOX 😂😂😂😂

When can we expect a fact check on: JoeBiden SpeakerPelosi SenSchumer ?

CNN is not a news organization. CNN is in the political propaganda business They script a narrative they hope appeals to their target audience and will keep them watching and reading. Presenting balanced and factual information is not their goal. With that in mind enjoy the show.

Don’t act surprised. He’s dishonest about everything.

Now do CNN. Why did CNN settle with Covington student? Something to do with false claims.

And you expected otherwise? If POTUS opens his mouth, he is lying

CNN all the fake news fit to broadcast!!!

Surprise!!

Lying fascist CNN being a fact checker is like having a fox in the hen house! CNN lies about the facts! We’ve had tariffs on China for “two centuries?” Really? Lies! CNN lies 100 times a day! Their facts are lies!

Make a list of which of his claims of were false !! And make sure they were false !!

I’m sure he appreciates you watching. Probably more than the ten people that watched Tapper’s show.

SomeKindOfIdiot

CNN fact check 😆😆😆😆😆

So says who? You people are infatuated with DJT aren’t ya?

realDonaldTrump is a liar. Liar in all ways. Lied to entire country. Lies with every word he says.

How do these clowns end up as reporters with business degrees?

'Trump peppers...', a Nigerian certainly wrote this headline.

Check out JoeBiden record of dishonesty. He has deopped out of 2 presidential races for lying and is lying again now about sexual misconduct.

Leave the guy alone ... He is doing a great job because God himself is with him.

Trump being dishonest is really not news. . If Trump is being honest, that's newsworthy.

Fake News media.

His normal behavior

We shouldn’t have to fact check the president every time he speaks. But I guess that’s where we are. cnn dishonest FoxNews

Very bias and sentimental CNN....

What a joke.. Hoping like hell he will lose supporters..not gonna happen. Trump2Q2Q

Leftist Propaganda.

Okay, this hardly qualifies as 'news.' TrumpTownHall

I suppose this is news & fact-checking is important. It’s just this news, isn’t actual news.

CNN is the most dishonest fake news media. Nonsense.

Might be easier to just report when Trump isn’t dishonest, because that would be news worthy.

Call him a liar 🤥

CNN is not good at fact checking. Because CNN is one sided just liberal propaganda. Why aren’t you checking into Joe Biden sexual assault allegations against him. Remember Joe Biden said all women should be heard. But that was before and not now because it’s against him.

Once again = FAKE NEWS. IN CAPITAL LETTERS

CNN IS FAKE FALSE NEWS!

China News network. The most fake news media in the world. We all know your fact checkers are fake.

TRUMP 2020🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

And you are fake news

For those who listened, they need to pay attn to the lies he told-Trump is a pathological liar who exhibits chronic behavior of habitual lying as a way of his life from childhood thru his adult life-His family should never believe anything he tells them.

🚨CNN FAKE NEWS🚨

😆😆😅

F U FakeNews!!! realDonaldTrump

BULLSHIT

I would love for someone to come with some direct evidence linking the Trump admin. to the red neck no mask protestors.

Shouldn’t it be now be headlined news when he doesn’t lie?

Keep talking as the virus worsens so you are further exposed.

I would like to call to account not China, not the US President, but those people who did not believe in it and walked around and infected so many

FN

CNN is the most dishonest network on tv. At least they’re watching the member one news show, Fox. Maybe they’ll learn something about real news instead of the garbage they produce.

N he probably prefaced his lies with As you know n many r saying

How about China and the word dishonest? Shouldn’t you focus there?

Yada yada...time for a different script.

It’s getting to the point that if the President says to stop, I’ll take off and if he says take off I’ll stop. He is that untrustworthy.

Was he dishonest when he called you guys fake news? Lol cnn pot calling the kettle black?

No! Really? How could that be? Are you for real? I’m shocked.

FakeNewsCNN here it goes again

CNN need covering this ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

😙😙

Your not a real reporter are you

CorruptMediaAlert 🚨

They're not 'town halls'--they're Klu Klux Klan propaganda hate rallies. Can we stop pretending he's a president? He's a felon, a lunatic and a panderer that will lie to stupid people with no remorse because it works. Anyone watching Fox is already intellectually bankrupt.

China news network no good

CNN lies. How can anyone watch that station. It's Trump bashing 24/7. CNN is so Fake

Why am I not surprised?

The best thing about having CNN report on all the fact check errors, made by Trump, is that nobody, who actually matters, ever see it.

Not news

Click bait!

Always so concerned about Trump like y'all got nothing else to do.

when isnt he dishonest

😂 😂 😂 Shocking 🤯

I'm out this country one side is pointing fingers at the other and the other is pointing at China . It's our problem . Every family should have one person tested for antibodies, it's easier and cheaper to see if the virus is in your area.

Fuck. Just tell us he’s a liar and get on with it!!

Does anyone gives two shits about what the Executive has to say outside of the office? Beside people that will never be chosen to warm it?

FAKE NEWS strikes out again!

Just so we can conclude these fact checks are fair and balanced, where are ealier fact checks that have a 'correct' outcome?

Trump is a liar that’s nothing new.

Where cnn gets their story , Anderson picks it

Greater story tonight was on 60 minutes about Americans suffering from Trumps inactions.

Lied is the word you are looking for. LIED.

❌❌❌

In fact, you can report it.

Horrible optics on a pandemic to go in front of Lincoln who presided over greatest loss in American lives.

Trump only lies ,and that's the truth!!

Unfortunately, this also is not NEWs

Fucking.duh.
