ABC News debate moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis frequently interrupted former President Donald Trump with misleading “fact checks” throughout Tuesday night’s presidential debate.
On the topic of abortion, Vice President Harris falsely claimed that Trump will sign an abortion ban. The former president has repeatedly stated that he has no interest in supporting a national abortion ban. Instead, Trump opted to shift the conversation to late term abortion.
After Trump finished delivering his answer, Davis falsely claimed that full term abortion is not legal in any state without giving Trump a chance to respond.
Despite Davis’ false claims, several Democratic politicians have endorsed the idea of full-term abortion, including former Virginia Governor Ralph Northam. When asked what would happen if a mother decided to “abort” a live baby, Northam stated that the child would be “made comfortable” before a decision whether to kill them was made.
Elsewhere in the debate, Muir falsely claimed that Trump killed an immigration bill that was approved in Senate committees. The bill would have allowed up to 10,000 illegal aliens a day, provided tens of millions in funding for NGO’s and lawyers to speed up asylum claims and accelerated a green card handout.
The bill also allocated hundreds of billions of dollars in foreign aid to Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan and other nations.
During the debate, Muir falsely claimed that Trump “killed” the so-called border deal that would have simply capped illegal immigration at current levels, which have surpassed records in consecutive years.
Muir also claimed that there are no reports of Haitian illegal aliens killing and eating pets in Springfield, Ohio. While police departments have yet to verify any reports, several town residents have urged city officials to do something about the issue.
While Trump was frequently “fact checked” and cut off by Muir and Davis, Harris was allowed to lie freely without any pushback. The hosts refused to press her on past support for a ban on fracking, healthcare for illegal aliens and other far-left claims, and refused to fact check Harris when she falsely claimed that Trump called Neo-Nazis “very fine people” after the Charlottesville rally.
The false claim has been repeatedly debunked by major fact-checking outlets, though Harris was allowed to utter the false claim without pushback.
