“Ford and General Motors UP BIG on Tariffs placed on Big and Midsized Trucks coming from other countries. Thank you President Trump!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary President Trump’s post stating that “Ford and General Motors UP BIG on Tariffs placed on Big and Midsized Trucks coming from other countries” is partially accurate. Tariffs on imported medium- and heavy-duty trucks were indeed implemented, benefiting domestic manufacturers, and GM stock saw a notable increase after the announcement, while Ford’s increase was more modest. The suggestion that…
“The Ronald Reagan Foundation has just announced that Canada has fraudulently used an advertisement, which is FAKE, featuring Ronald Reagan speaking negatively about Tariffs. The ad was for $75,000,000. They only did this to interfere with the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court, and other courts. TARIFFS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE NATIONAL SECURITY, AND ECONOMY, OF THE U.S.A. Based on their egregious behavior, ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary Donald Trump’s claim that Canada’s Ontario government ran a “fraudulent” and “FAKE” advertisement featuring Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs is exaggerated. The ad used verbatim quotes from Reagan’s 1987 address, accurately reflecting his opposition to tariffs, although the soundbites were edited and rearranged. The $75 million campaign cost is well-documented. The assertion that the ad aimed to interfere with…
“This month is Down Syndrome Awareness Month. To all of the wonderful Down Syndrome children in our Country, and their parents, who love them so much — You are AMAZING! May God bless you.” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The primary factual claim in the post is that October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month. This is supported by decades of recognition by advocacy organizations and federal acknowledgment. The post’s celebratory language for children with Down syndrome and their families is a values statement, not a factual claim, and the blessing is a matter of faith. The post…
“I think the Democrats have gone totally crazy…they dont care about the people. I really think they have no leadership—They really should approve an extension, get the Country back to work, and get the people paid…” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The post repeats familiar partisan rhetoric, blending opinion with partially accurate factual claims. While it is true that Democrats have blocked the Republican-backed continuing resolution multiple times during the October 2025 government shutdown, resulting in missed paychecks for federal workers, the characterizations of Democrats as “totally crazy,” uncaring, and lacking leadership are subjective opinions, not facts. The real…
“The Federal Government was preparing to surge San Francisco, California, on Saturday, but friends of mine who live in the area called last night to ask me not to go forward with the surge in that the Mayor, Daniel Lurie, was making substantial progress. I spoke to Mayor Lurie last night and he asked, very nicely, that I give him a chance to see if he can turn it around. I told him I think he is making a mistake, because we can do it much faster, and remove the criminals that the Law does not permit him to remove. I told him, Its an easier process if we do it, faster, stronger, and safer but, lets see how you do? The people of San Francisco have come together on fighting Crime, especially since we began to take charge of that very nasty subject. Great people like Jensen Huang, Marc Benioff, and others have called saying that the future of San Francisco is great. They want to give it a shot. Therefore, we will not surge San Francisco on Saturday. Stay tuned!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary President Trump’s post about calling off a planned federal law enforcement “surge” in San Francisco is strongly supported by contemporaneous reporting and official statements from all involved. Each key claim—planning of a federal operation, Mayor Daniel Lurie’s direct appeal to Trump, significant documented improvements in crime rates under Lurie’s tenure, and calls from tech executives Jensen Huang and…
