Trump's Madison Square Garden speech features misleading claims on inflation and immigration
Former President Donald Trump spoke at Madison Square Garden, repeating many misleading claims from his 2024 campaign. His remarks included false statements about inflation, job losses, and immigration, which have been fact-checked and debunked by various sources. Trump claimed that Vice President Kamala Harris was responsible for significant inflation and job losses, but economists attribute these issues to multiple factors, including global events. He also made unverified assertions about illegal immigration and disaster response funding. Additionally, Trump inaccurately stated that he was the only president in 84 years not to start a war and exaggerated crowd sizes at his events. Many of his claims have been challenged and found to lack supporting evidence.
