    Default Trump alternative facts

    President Trump got several FACTS wrong during his 80-minute news conference at the White House on Thursday:





    Trump off by two votes on electoral win



    Trump claimed he was elected with 306 Electoral College votes.

    "I'm here following through on what I pledged to do. That's all I'm doing. I put it out before the American people, got 306 electoral college votes. I wasn't supposed to get 222. They said there's no way to get 222, 230's impossible," Trump said.

    When Congress certified the presidential election tally in January, Trump received 304 electoral votes to 227 for Democratic challenger Hillary Clinton.





    Trump misstates 'biggest Electoral College win since Reagan'


    "We got 306 because people came out and voted like they've never seen before so that's the way it goes," Trump said. "I guess it was the biggest Electoral College win since Ronald Reagan," Trump said.

    President Obama won 332 electoral votes in 2012 and 365 in 2008. President Clinton got 379 in 1996 and 370 in 1992. The first President Bush received 426 in 1988.





    9th Circuit Court of Appeals has not set a record


    "In fact, we had to go quicker than we thought because of the bad decision we received from a circuit that has been overturned at a record number. I have heard 80%, I find that hard to believe, that is just a number I heard, that they are overturned 80% of the time," Trump said.

    It is true that between 2010-2015, 79% of all the cases the Supreme Court heard from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals were overturned. However, as Politifact points out: This is not a record. The Supreme Court overturned 87% of the cases by the 6th Circuit Court and 85% by the 11th Circuit during the same period, according to Politifact.

    Trump came to a battle of wits, but he was completely unarmed. This was with the press corps, and they were able to call him out on several "alternate facts". Now just imagine this guy negotiating with Russia, Iran, or North Korea. Pretty scary to say the least.

    At least he can negotiate rather than apologize and concede on every part of a deal !

    Still hoping for good things to come from Trump. Like I said he will do some things I like and probably some I won't like. No different then any President before him and anyone after him.

    I can't understand why poeple including Trump can't get over it. You won time to move on. He continues to bring up the election results. Someone please tell him it's over, I know it's hard for to believe Donald but, you actually won.

    Well that's just not true lol !!!!

    Lets see bring good paying jobs back to this country, who would not be for that.

    Improve our healthcare and make it cheaper, who would not be for that.

    Build a wall, why not, what we are doing now isn't working.

    Yep Im all for that also.

    I find it hard to believe hell bring back good paying jobs, since he wont even bring back his own over seas manufacturing jobs, and since he has always been a huge user of undocumented workers in his hotels and towers. As of a few weeks ago he had a add running for undocumented workers to work in his hotel as house cleaners, cooks, wait staff, with the offer of temporary visas....

    I doubt he comes up with a BETTER plan for health care since he cant even remember a simple number like 306 which seems to be so important to him.

    The wall.. well who hasnt stood around at lunch at work saying build a wall!! everyone has, the facts are building a wall on a river is unrealistic, building a wall on a cliff is unrealistic, building a wall where much of the land is privately owned and people own land that would be on both sides is unrealistic. Those are a few of the reasons the WALL hasnt been completed.. Stealing peoples land and dividing their land so they cant use it any longer is going to be quite a battle, if anyone is up to it though Id say trump is our man, he doesnt care about anyone but himself, he doesnt mind ruining peoples lives or lively hood. If he can get out of paying for something he will, if he can file bankruptcy he will.. anything to come out on top himself, zero concern about moral character..

    Im not sure what else trump claims or plans to do, since he has NEVER said much of anything, except the above three and of course bitch about the media, get in twitter fights etc.

    You know it is time to get over it and that goes for the President as well. You have to admit he keeps bringing it up. he just feeds the media.
