CNN picked three historical markers, without sourcing, to say the following about the GOP presidential nominee:
At a rally in North Carolina on Tuesday, Donald Trump, the Republican nominee states: “Our African American communities are absolutely in the worst shape they’ve ever been in before. Ever, ever, ever.”
The statement is so patently absurd, fact-checking it seems kind of silly.
One fact was about the lynching of black Americans, another was about mobs, and the other was about poverty. They could be true, but the article was not sourced, which calls into question the premise of the ‘reality check’ fact-check article.
