“For all of those people voting in New Jersey and Virginia for Governor, Attorney General, or any other position, please remember this: A REPUBLICAN VOTE MEANS A DRASTIC DROP IN ENERGY PRICES AND ENERGY COSTS, A DROP LIKE YOUVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE! — A DEMOCRAT VOTE MEANS A DOUBLING, AND EVEN TRIPLING, OF YOUR ENERGY BILLS AND PRICES, TRADITIONALLY THE HIGHEST COST OF AN AMERICAN CITIZEN! So, if you vote Republican, your Energy Costs are going to go down, tremendously! If you vote Democrat, your Energy Costs are going to go through the roof, making Energy virtually unaffordable for you and your family to pay. Also, remember, that if you dont go to the Polls and VOTE, its the same thing as voting for a Democrat. SO, GO TO THE POLLS AND CUT YOUR ENERGY COSTS IN HALF!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary The TruthSocial post claims that voting Republican in New Jersey and Virginia will cause energy costs to drop drastically, while voting Democrat will double or triple bills and make energy unaffordable. Comprehensive examination of federal and independent energy data shows these extreme promises are false. During the Trump administration, electricity prices actually increased by 10% to 27% nationally,…
“Mary Barra of General Motors, and Bill Ford of Ford Motor Company, just called to thank me for putting Tariffs on Mid Size and Large Size Trucks. Their Stock has gone through the roof! They told me that, without Tariffs, it would be a very hard, long slog for Truck and Car Manufacturers in the United States. I told them, its very simple, this is a National Security matter. With the Tariffs, we have a strong and powerful Economy and Country. Without them, we have the exact opposite!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary President Trump’s claim that Mary Barra (GM) and Bill Ford (Ford) personally called to thank him for truck tariffs is unverified; Ford declined to confirm the call, and there is no public evidence either call occurred as described. Both GM and Ford have expressed public support for truck tariffs in official statements, and GM’s stock surged after the…
“In addition to everything else, Tariffs on other Countries SAVED our Cattle Ranchers!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary Donald Trump’s statement that tariffs on other countries “saved our cattle ranchers” contains factual elements—he did impose tariffs on beef imports, particularly on Brazilian beef. However, agricultural economists, market data, and U.S. cattle industry organizations overwhelmingly agree that the primary driver of improved profits for ranchers is historically low cattle supply due to years of drought and herd…
“The Cattle Ranchers, who I love, dont understand that the only reason they are doing so well, for the first time in decades, is because I put Tariffs on cattle coming into the United States, including a 50% Tariff on Brazil. If it werent for me, they would be doing just as theyve done for the past 20 years — Terrible! It would be nice if they would understand that, but they also have to get their prices down, because the consumer is a very big factor in my thinking, also!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary President Trump’s statement that cattle ranchers are thriving exclusively due to his tariffs, notably a 50% tariff on Brazilian imports, contains a mixture of truths and significant exaggerations. While a 50% tariff on Brazil was indeed imposed and ranchers are currently profitable, economic analysis concludes that the primary reason for high cattle prices is a historic shortage in…
“Im pleased to announce Mark Savaya will serve as Special Envoy to the Republic of Iraq. Marks deep understanding of the Iraq-U.S. relationship, and his connections in the region, will help advance the interests of the American people. Mark was a key player in my campaign in Michigan, where he, and others, helped secure a record vote with Muslim Americans. Congratulations, Mark!” @realDonaldTrump
Fact-Check Summary There is no credible evidence that Mark Savaya has been appointed as Special Envoy to the Republic of Iraq, nor that he holds any formal role in U.S. diplomacy or foreign policy. Public records confirm his identity as a Michigan-based businessman with roots in the cannabis industry. While he has Iraqi heritage, no sources establish Savaya’s diplomatic qualifications,…
