President Trump on tomorrow night’s debate: “I think the ‘mute’ is very unfair and I think it’s very bad they’re not talking about foreign affairs. I think the anchor is a very biased person - her parents are very biased...” pic.twitter.com/O5Z1B2mex0

So, we're aiding the TALIBAN?
On the orders of the President, we're the Taliban's Air Force? https://t.co/JTCAjvCBbf

Trump's first sentence is false. 2.2 million people were not "expected to die."
— Daniel Dale (@ddale8) October 23, 2020
That was an estimate for *what would happen if no government or person in the US took any mitigation efforts at all.* An extreme-worst-case scenario.
"I've been congratulated by the heads of many countries on what we've been able to do, with the -- if you take a look at what we've done in terms of goggles." -- Trump #wut pic.twitter.com/lhrdGLywOG

So...there were at least three egregiously false claims in Trump's first answer:
— Daniel Dale (@ddale8) October 23, 2020
- 2.2 million deaths "expected"
- We're rounding the turn, it's going away
- Vaccine "ready"
Here is a timeline of Trump saying, for eight whole months, dozens of times, that the pandemic is "going away."
— Daniel Dale (@ddale8) October 23, 2020
It's not going away. The claim has never been remotely accurate. https://t.co/EqVyOnVSA5
We are not rounding any "turn" on the pandemic. It’s a vague claim, but it’s just wrong.
— Daniel Dale (@ddale8) October 23, 2020
Cases are rising. Hospitalizations are rising. Deaths are now starting to rise again, too. Most states are doing worse this week than they did last week. pic.twitter.com/y1pr4V9SXW

Trump did not "ban" China from coming in. He imposed travel restrictions with multiple exemptions (citizens, permanent residents, many of their family members, some others); tens of thousands of people flew in from China after the restrictions took effect on February 2.

Trump brings up Swine Flu again to slam Biden.
— andrew kaczynski🤔 (@KFILE) October 23, 2020
Trump praised the Obama administration's handling of Swine Flu at the time and told them to not overreact to it.
Trump added a swine flu vaccine might cause autism. (Vaccines don't cause autism)https://t.co/J19AosDett

That money comes from American taxpayers, as Biden correctly responded.
