Washington, DC President Donald Trump used a Labor Day press briefing at the White House to give a campaign-style address, attacking his political opponents, touting the alleged success the US has had against the coronavirus and repeating many false and misleading claims along the way.
In all, CNN counted at least 11 outright falsehoods and a few more that were misleading or lacked context. We're updating as we go, but here's a look at so far at the President's claims and the facts behind them. ShutdownEchoing comments he made in August, Trump claimed"Biden's plan for the China virus is to shut down the entire US economy." Read MoreFacts First: Biden has not announced any such plan for combating the coronavirus pandemic but has said he would be prepared to call for a shut down if scientists recommended doing so. It's also worth noting that presidents cannot single-handedly"shut down" the country.

10.6 Million Jobs Created In Just 4 Months, A Record!!!
Strange ,memorial speech! He just lied!
Republicans own this travesty. They are never to be trusted again.
LIES LIES LIES STOP LYING TRUMP!!!
He thinks if he says it enough times people will believe what he says. We are not stupid, we’ve seen the videos of his lies.
Trump is the winner because DEMOCRATS ARE GIVEN THE BACK TO CITIZENS WITH NEEDS IN NEW YORK!!!
If that gong show yesterday is what passes now for a campaign address wow. That was a cry baby, kiss his own ass fest
realDonaldTrump constant liar
Well if you say they were lies then they were actual truth, I don’t know how a network that lies to it’s viewers 24/7 would know what a truth is. Go back to training your hate filled Zombies and leave truth to people who know what that is
Smart man.
If you repeat something often enough you can get some people to believe it's true even though it's deceptive. This is typical of Trump.
There’s something wrong when he’s unable to focus on the real issues affecting the world let alone the country or even the Labour Day by instead wanting everyone to focus on him. 🙄
Truly the very worst of all 45.👎🏾
LOL. “Fact check” and CNN. Oxymoron?
Report what the man said and stop interpreting the words of the man so of all the man said this is all the stunt you have to pull
cnn it is coming
🤮
Stop covering these fake press conferences and enabling the unhinged and deranged ranting of Donald Trump.
realDonaldTrump MORE LIES!!!!! TrumpLiesEverytimeHeSpeaks
CNN watchers (the few) wouldn't know about the ' many false and misleading claims' because CNN didn't carry the briefing. But the unbiased network did cover Joe Biden's news conference.
All he has r more lies, name calling, patting himself on the butt, the radical left...the same things he said the day before! Nothing new because he doesn't read! Boring uninformative crap!
Meanwhile Biden does? 🤔🤔
Trump is the right president at this point in the world affairs. God is with him
Fact check : TrumpLandslideVictory2020 TrumpLandslideVictory2016
Trump is the worst liar in Public history.
Did his scalp reduction surgery make his ears sit at that odd angle?
What else is new? If you notice in his and Biden's public appearences, Donny is the only one sweating,
How in the hell can liars fact check anyone? I trust Babylon Bee more than I do you.
Amazing how media used to call them lies. But not it is false and misleading statements. Like CNN does try to sway stories with misleading items they call facts - but truly are not facts at all.
He is a psychotic sphincter that has been constipated for a month and he just drank a gallon of colonoscopy prep... ... and we are the fan
Zzzzzz CNN is desperate FakeNews
Trump should be censured for using an official government venue for political purposes.
Oh the United States 🇺🇸 is doing so great at COVID19 response! So much winning! 🏆 TrumpVirusDeathToll193K TrumpMeltdown Biden2020
This man is seriously pathetic! Pathetic is what today’s garble was and pathetic and leadership cannot go hand in hand. America, is this your president?! Really?!🤦🏾♀️
And drove nuts! 😂
You gonna apologize for the Atlantic story now that the editor concedes it was bullshit
TWO TYPES OF VACCINES NEED TO BE PRODUCED. A- VACCINE FOR INDIVIDUAL SYMPTOMS AFTER CONDUCTING CORONAVIRUS. B-VACCINE SHOULD BE PRODUCED FOR INDIVIDUALS WHICH DOES NOT HAVE SYMPTOMS AFTER THE CORONAVIRUS IS CONTAINED.
Trump was borne to lie.
If CNN says it then it fake news. 🤷♀️
Shocker! It would be a banner day if Trump spoke the truth.
Did Twitter fact check this post?
Fact check: CNN repeats numerous false and misleading information in propaganda-style in many reviews
You mean like the lies you kept pushing about Nicholas Sandmann? You had to pay out so much, he now owns you.
While Joe sleep in his basement wearing a mask, of course!!
More garbage and lies from CNN.
Dear media Stop covering President Trump, don't you know he's been using you all to spew his nonsense.
The only one repeating for False claims is CNN
CNN FAKE NEWS
And It Was Awesome !
You can fact check him till Doomsday and he'll still lie.
No no. You must be talking about FNN “sources” lol
False and misleading = LIES!
Get off of it no one gives a damn what CNN says anymore they’re all liars No one is listening you sound like crying babies oh my goodness constantly crying about something childish
One claim that is not false, he called Biden stupid.
Lying claims only to you lying dog face pony soldiers. You guys haven't represented anything truthful in many years. You also are likely implicated in the coup as you no doubt corroborated with the coup plotters including Obama. CNN is truly the enemy of the people.
So Obama didn’t spy on his campaign? I’m so glad cnn can get it right.
YOU ARE FAKE CNN
JoelleNemecek With all the rules he broke and all the damage he’s doing to America how the hell is he still the president? Someone please explain this to me. So many people died because of him and he is just wiping his ass with the constitution. wtf !
45
Biden the most racist man in America
It was not a “press briefing.” No news, just same old lies and rants.
When the press continually lies about him and refuses to cover all his accomplishments, he has no other way to get his truth out. You should be ashamed of yourselves on how you’ve covered him for 4 years! The latest lie from “anonymous sources” was disgusting!
LindaMa84889149 cnn ABC CBSNews NBCNews Trump uses you to spread disinformation. Democracy and your ratings are better off if you do not take him live! He has Fox for that, the rest of us turn you off when you run his live shit show.
unojen_wood it aint Bernie coz CNN subverting democracy
Don’t show up for any press conferences. There should no media coverage. That will get him.
He can’t stop telling lies.
So, the same old shit.
This guys face fucking sickens me. I’ve saved lots of money on coffee though...instead of drinking a coffee in the morning to start my engine and get my blood flowing, I now merely listen to him sling his shit, n’lies, and I’m ready for anything.
Your news as been fake for years cnn wind ye necks in 🙌🙌👍
Imagine realDonaldTrump on a holiday like Labor Day saying something nice and positive for a change to all Americans or at least thanking health care and front line workers for risking their lives for all of us. Instead he spreads his hate and lies as 190k are dead. What a POS.
Why did you air Donnie?
So it's an election year ! Isn't that what your supposed to do ? Biden had a sellout crowd today and bashed Trump. To 4 people
CNN used a Labor Day press briefing at the White House to give a campaign style news report. Attacking their political opponent touting their alleged success as an honest news agency. Repeating many false and misleading claims. That should be the Headline.
Stop spreading marxist propaganda
And so why does CNN give him free campaign time!
Soon he will go from an AGENDA To Attends
Trump is master of lying.
Our COVID response has been a total disaster.
Truth hurts
His show is getting old. CancelTrump
You are fake news. You distortions the news
Here is a glimpse of Biden's and the socialist UTOPIA ! In LA where a 3pm people are asked to turn off their electricity due to brown outs! They are living like it's a third world country!😝
I feel like there's a serious boundary issue with that whole event.
President Trump used a Labor Day press briefing at his home to give a campaign address, attacking his political opponents, touting the success the US has had against Covid-19 and repeating many controversial claims along the way J101 Fixed it for you
Not to mention denying he dissed military, while dissing military!
And CNN was there to capture every single word. Just like in 2015-2016. Useless suckups. I dont watch CNN. You shouldnt either. JMO
Worthless.
AN untrusted / early release vaccine, may not work and false security against COVID19 or harm those that take it. BE SAFE: Wait for a vaccine that has the long term positive testing and has completed all phases Be sure that Majority Medical Experts say OK Don't believe Trump
Great speech, voting for him
This is why many American don’t watch this bulls’&t when he does press briefing. I WILL NOT BE BRAINWASHED!!!
Once again...using the power of the White House to campaign from. This President doesn’t understand the Constitution nor the laws that govern it.
CNN has tons of dirt on Joe Biden that they absolutely refuse to report on. Ask yourself, why not?
Any you guys aired it all. Good job.
Liberal hacks.
It’s all a show.
With the financial incentives given to hospitals for every covid death and the extremely liberal approach taken to record covid death in the US I am not surprised the death from covid won't reach 30m There is a reason why COVID death are so high in US and so law in Cameron
TrumpIsAnIdiot
Suck it CNN! You are complicit in the wrongful death of THOUSANDS of Americans! You conspired with DEMONRATS to spread a propaganda campaign against lifesaving HCQ! Democrats denied that medication from being dispensed. You lied...Americans died! 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻
“False & misleading” = lies. Just say it. TrumpLiesEverytimeHeSpeaks
Why doesn't the media stop covering these events live? If you continue to do so, knowing they are in fact campaign-oriented, then immediately give Biden equal time. Or, do a tape delay and bleep any lies or campaign statements.
Trump couldn’t care less about our service men and women. He does not give a damn for others except himself. He is purposefully dividing Americans. He is an overt racist. He is dangerous to our democracy. Trump supporters are being conned by a con man, a fraud, and a criminal.
The fucking lying is getting old.
That’s what he does he loves to blame everyone but his self.
The the media/press SUCKERS like always.
Can’t wait for Gohmert and other high-profile Republicans to take Trump’s politically-expedient snake oil miracle vaccine! Is there a single person out there stupid enough to think Trump simply willed a vaccine into existence and it’s going to be out right before Election Day?
The Labor Day liar 🤥
Translation...Trump lies lies lies lies and more lies at a LaborDay press conference!!
Fact check: Fun Fact, God is better than Politics Which traps our souls in greed and war.
Stay out of our lives for one day!!! trumpfatigue voteearly
Considering the Radical Democrats have the Entire Main Stream Media Whoring for them! Trump Needs to get his real message out to American People instead of through your Tainted radicalized Ideology BS Lense! Ugh Seriously Lost All respect and for Main Stream Biased Media😞
Liberalmedia clowns fakejournalism
Why is he allowed to.lie I dont get it... is he a deity.. a supreme leader for life You cant let your president get away with it
No one even cares that this is illegal anymore.
Amazing journalism!
He will continue to use press briefings as campaign rallies. He is the most unethical “president” in history
The press needs to grow some 'stones' and walk out when he starts this s**t. He is only going to get worse as the possible loss of the election begins to sink into him.
Putin is going to supply Trump with his Sputnik V vaccine before Election Day to help Trump get elected!
