Trump's 'Greatest Idea' for a 2014 Law - FactCheck.org
In his midterm campaign rallies, President Donald Trump has repeatedly made the preposterous claim that he came up with "the greatest idea" for "veterans choice" — a program that was launched in 2014 during the Obama administration. He also claimed it took "44 years" to get the legislation passed. In fact, nothing he said about the program's origin is true.

It turns out Donald Trump and John Kelly lied about getting UCLA basketball players out of China
LiAngelo Ball, Cody Riley, and Jalen Hill were arrested for shoplifting, in China, during a UCLA basketball team trip back in the second week of November 2017.

Bergen: It wasn't Trump but this general's elite soldiers who defeated ISIS -- CNN
Two months ago President Trump was quick to take credit for the looming defeat of ISIS when Raqqa fell to US-backed forces. But the credit belongs with the storied "Golden Division" of Iraq's Counter-Terrorism Service, led by Lt. General Abdul-Wahab al-Saadi, writes Peter Bergen. ...

No, Donald Trump Hasn't Created A Million Jobs -- RedState
