This episode is part 1 of examining common claims about something Donald Trump said.
As we examine each trope let's ask ourselves "Did Trump really say that?!"
Context is king. There can be more than meets the eye than what media will often have us believe.
In part 1 we dissect three hoaxes:
- The Charlottesville "very fine people" hoax
- The immigrants are "animals" and "not people" hoax
- The "inject bleach" hoax
