MSNBC: See Maddow shred Trump with live fact-check of victory speech

MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow fact-checks Donald Trump's New Hampshire primary victory speech.



CNN and MSNBC Forced to Fact Check Error-Riddled Trump Victory Speech

CNN issued a fact-check several minutes later, once Trump had begun to give others on stage a turn at the podium. “Completely untrue,” reporter Daniel Dale said of Trump’s alternate history. Additional comments of Trump’s were not accurate, he went on to explain.

“He also claimed something he has been saying in the lead-up to this primary, and that is that Democrats were able to vote. In fact, only registered Republicans and people registered as undeclared—New Hampshire independents—were permitted to cast ballots in the Republican primary,” Dale said.

“The deadline to switch your affiliation was more than three months ago, in early October. So no Democrats—registered Democrats—-were voting in the election.”
