Former President Trump revived his attacks towards ABC News and its presidential debate moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis for repeatedly fact-checking him.
Former President Trump took aim at ABC News over its handling of the presidential debate, accusing the network of “violating” its agreement with his campaign about not having fact-checks during the political showdown.
Speaking from Trump Tower in New York City on Thursday, Trump renewed his attacks on the Disney-owned network while addressing crime at the campaign event.
“And during the debate, I mentioned that and David Muir, a real lightweight”, Trump said. “I had one against three, but I think we did great. But David Muir of ABC, fake news, when I said that crime is way up in our country, he corrected me, he corrected me and so much and it was right what I said. He didn’t correct [Vice President Kamala Harris] one time, and what she said was wrong, absolutely wrong. So many different- Charlottesville, she was wrong, all of the different things, almost everything she said, and she was never corrected.
“But he corrected me on crime. He said, ‘No, no, crime has not gone up.’ I said crime has gone up massively. He said, ‘I’d like to state for the record that crime has not gone up.
