A couple news sites have factchecked Trump's tirade...

Anyone who watched Trump probably already knows he's a bit light on his facts and never met a conspiracy theory he didnt love, and the fact checkers caught many of his lies. I liked the one that pointed out, "The facts: According to PolitiFact, 59% of Trump's checked claims have been deemed false or "Pants on Fire" false, versus 12% for Clinton."

If they really believed that firing one person and taking an afternoon off to come up with a grand strategy was going to work, they are even more clueless than I thought.
