August: A tariff mantra

Between July 8, when we started counting Trump's false claims at CNN, and December 15, the day until which we currently have comprehensive data, Trump's most frequent false claim of any kind was that China is paying the entirety of the cost of his tariffs on imported Chinese products.
"We're not paying for the tariffs; China is paying for the tariffs, for the 100th time," he told reporters in one typical remark on August 18. "And I understand tariffs very well. Other countries, it may be that if I do things with other countries -- but in the case of China, China is eating the tariffs, at least so far."
His assertion has been contradicted by numerous tariff-paying American companies and by multiple economic studies. But Trump said it on 49 separate occasions over those five months. And he said it 20 times in August alone, more than he did in any other month, as he faced scrutiny over his intensifying trade war.

CNN analyst says Trump CPAC speech sounded like HITLER, and scripted by PUTIN


CNN analyst says Trump CPAC speech sounded like HITLER, and scripted by PUTIN

CNN went wayyy over the top today in responding to Trump’s CPAC speech, with this comparison to Hitler. Cuz we can’t get enough of that and it definitely persuades people, right?

Watch below:

Transcript from Mediaite:
Vinograd said on CNN this afternoon, “His statement makes me sick, on a personal level, preserving your heritage, reclaiming our heritage, that sounds a lot like a certain leader that killed members of my family and about six million other Jews in the 1940s.”
OK then.
“By the way, this whole CPAC speech, how many pieces, parts of President Putin’s to-do list was President Trump trying to accomplish today? He denigrated our institutions, the Department of Justice and U.S. Congress, he spread misinformation and conspiracy theories, he undermined the credibility of several of our institutions, he sewed divisions, he sewed confusion, he was speaking to his base but he was also saying things that really looked like Vladimir Putin scripted his speech. So it helped him perhaps with his base, and politically, while at the same time, making Russia’s job a lot easier.”
Well, yeah. But it’s not illegal to have a foreign policy that aligns up with Putin’s global stratagems. And people voted for it. So make your case that he’s wrong, argue your side, don’t just whine about what has been pretty obvious since before the presidential election.
