“The United States has more Nuclear Weapons than any other country. This was accomplished, including a complete update and renovation of existing weapons, during my First Term in office. Because of the tremendous destructive power, I HATED to do it, but had no choice! Russia is second, and China is a distant third, but will be even within 5 years. Because of other countries testing programs, I have instructed the Department of War to start testing our Nuclear Weapons on an equal basis. That process will begin immediately. Thank you for your attention to this matter! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary President Trump’s post makes several inaccurate or exaggerated claims regarding the size and modernization of the U.S. nuclear arsenal, the global rankings of nuclear powers, and the immediacy of a policy shift to resume nuclear weapons testing. Authoritative data refute the claim that the United States has more nuclear weapons than any other country; in fact, Russia holds…
“an honor. Millions of lives saved. Thank you! President DJT” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The Truth Social post’s claim that “millions of lives saved” due to President Trump’s actions is highly exaggerated and unsupported by available evidence. Public health trend data demonstrate a real decrease in overdose deaths, but the numbers are nowhere near the millions. Credible sources and expert analysis conclusively find such claims to be implausible and misleading. Belief Alignment…

“South Korea will be building its Nuclear Powered Submarine in the Philadelphia Shipyards, right here in the good ol U.S.A. Shipbuilding in our Country will soon be making a BIG COMEBACK. Stay tuned!!! President DJT” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary President Trump’s claim that South Korea will build nuclear-powered submarines in Philadelphia Shipyards is unsupported by verified agreements or operational reality. South Korea does not yet operate nuclear-powered submarines, and although there have been investments by South Korean companies in US shipyards (notably for US Navy support), there is no evidence of an approved or initiated program for…
“South Korea has agreed to pay the USA 350 Billion Dollars for a lowering of the Tariffs charged against them by the United States. Additionally, they have agreed to buy our Oil and Gas in vast quantities, and investments into our Country by wealthy South Korean Companies and Businessmen will exceed 600 Billion Dollars. Our Military Alliance is stronger than ever before and, based on that, I have given them approval to build a Nuclear Powered Submarine, rather than the old fashioned, and far less nimble, diesel powered Submarines that they have now. A great trip, with a great President of South Korea!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary President Trump’s post on the U.S.-South Korea trade deal contains partially accurate and partially exaggerated claims. The $350 billion investment figure is broadly accurate but is not a lump-sum payment for tariff reductions—it’s a combination of incremental investments and shipbuilding financing over many years. The claims about major oil and gas purchases and the $600 billion in total…
