President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden faced off in the final presidential debate of the campaign held in Nashville, Tennessee, on Oct. 22 and moderated by NBC News’ Kristen Welker.
The candidates repeated talking points from the stump and added some new twists on the facts. Here is what FactCheck.org found:
From Trump:
• Trump accused Biden of receiving “$3.5 million from Russia.” There’s no evidence of that.
• Trump erred when he said it’s “proven” that a minimum-wage boost would lead to many firings. There’s a chance that the effect could be “about zero,” according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office.
• Trump falsely said “I don’t take” money from Wall Street. He and groups supporting him got about $13.8 million from Wall Street.
The president falsely claimed that his bank account in China was “closed in 2015.” Trump’s own attorney said it remains open.
• Trump claimed that the $750 the New York Times reported he paid in federal income taxes in 2016 and 2017 was a “filing fee.” There is no such fee.
• Trump repeated his claim that “we’re rounding the turn” on the pandemic. Cases actually are increasing in many parts of the country.
Trump misleadingly suggested the Obama administration was to blame for his administration’s policy that caused the separation of immigrant families.
• Trump falsely claimed that “less than 1%” of those caught crossing the border and released pending immigration hearings appear in court. The rate is about 50%, according to his own Justice Department.
• The president falsely claimed murderers and rapists are released under a so-called “catch and release” policy. In fact, immigration laws require such criminals be detained.
