Most of the falsehoods uttered by the Republican presidential nominee were claims that have been repeatedly debunked before, some of them for years.

Former President Donald Trump and businessman Elon Musk spoke in a conversation aired on Musk’s social media platform, X. Former President Donald Trump delivered his usual bombardment of false claims – at least 20 in all – during a Monday conversation with billionaire supporter Elon Musk, which aired on Musk’s social media platform, X.

In fact, Trump’s claims about sea levels are highly inaccurate for the area near Mar-a-Lago, which is on the Atlantic. Griggs noted in a June email thatfrom the closest National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration tide gauge to Mar-a-Lago shows an increase of an eighth of an inch roughly made the joke about rising seas creating more oceanfront property.

Republicans can fairly say that even “root causes” work is a border-related task. But calling her “border czar” goes too far.Trump claimed: “Venezuela – their crime is down 72%. They’re taking their drug dealers. The number of nationwide encounters was 205,019 in June, the last month for which data is currently available to the public.Trump said of migration under Biden and Harris: “I believe it’s over 20 million people came into our country, many coming from jails, from prisons, from mental institutions, or a bigger version of that is insane asylums.”Trump’s “20 million” figure is false, a major exaggeration.

Serge Mombouli, the Republic of Congo’s ambassador to the US, said in an email to CNN in March: “There is no truth or any sign nor a single fact supporting such a claim or statement.”Trump repeated a story he has told on numerous previous occasions about how, during President Barack Obama’s administration, it was impossible to deport violent criminals to Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.
