Contributing sentiments towards policy:
39% : Also, the same person can be "encountered" multiple times if they keep returning to the border to try again - which is what happened in many cases under Biden when the Title 42 rapid-expulsion authority invoked by Trump during the Covid-19 pandemic was in place into May 2023.34% : She has never said anything to endorse post-birth murder, which is illegal everywhere in the country; Trump has frequently claimed that some Democratic states allow such post-birth executions, but that claim is false, too.
31% : Even if you added the estimated number of Biden-era "gotaways" (people who evaded the Border Patrol to enter illegally), which House Republicans said in May was nearly two million, "the totals would still be vastly smaller than 15, 16 or 18 million," Michelle Mittelstadt, spokesperson for the Migration Policy Institute think tank, said in late June after Trump used those figures.
24% : Though she has sometimes been pointedly critical of the actions of Israel's government during the war in Gaza, drawing criticism from conservative Jews and others, there is no evidence she has a general antipathy toward "the Jewish people" as Trump claimed.
22% : But Trump said after criticizing Harris' absence: "Even if you're against Israel or you're against the Jewish people, show up and listen to the concept.
22% : Trump could fairly say that Harris couldn't initially pass the bar exam, but his rally comments made it sound like she never passed at all.
20% : Trump has never presented any evidence for this claim that Biden was the hidden hand behind his cases, let alone for suddenly switching the claim to make it about the vice president after months of saying it about the president.
20% : Harris and fentanyl deathsShortly after claiming there is a "Kamala Harris invasion" of the border, Trump said, "We're losing 300,000 people a year through fentanyl that comes through our border.
17% : "Facts First: Trump made two false claims here.
15% : Harris and the retirement ageDiscussing Social Security, Trump claimed of President Joe Biden and Harris: "They're talking about, he was talking, she's talking about - lifting the retirement age.
13% : Trump, speaking in North Carolina, attacked Harris at length with a flurry of assertions about her personal and political past, her record as vice president and her policy stances.
12% : "Harris and the bar examTrump claimed that Harris, a lawyer who was elected as San Francisco's district attorney and then as California's attorney general, "failed her law exams."
11% : There is no sign that Harris had any role in bringing charges against Trump in Manhattan, New York (where he was convicted of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records) or Fulton County, Georgia (where an election subversion case against Trump is on hold); those prosecutions have been led by elected local district attorneys.
10% : Harris and the Jewish communityTrump criticized Harris for not attending Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Wednesday speech to Congress (though Trump's running mate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, also did not attend); Harris, who is planning to hold a meeting with Netanyahu on Thursday, traveled to Indianapolis on Wednesday to give a previously scheduled speech to a historically Black sorority.
9% : Harris and the number of migrantsTrump claimed that Harris "allowed 20 million illegal aliens to stampede into our country from all over the world.
6% : The CDC said in May that roughly 107,500 people in the US died from a drug overdose involving any kind of drug in 2023; even that larger number is nowhere close to Trump's "300,000."When Trump made similar "300,000" claims earlier this year, Dr. Andrew Kolodny, medical director of the Opioid Policy Research Collaborative at Brandeis University, said "I have no idea where Trump is getting '300,000' from and called it "a made-up number."While Kolodny said it's likely that the number of US overdose deaths is undercounted, there is no apparent basis for Trump's insistence that the real number is nearly triple the reported number.
4% : "Harris and Trump's legal casesTrump has claimed for months that Biden secretly orchestrated his criminal and civil legal cases.
