In his Inaugural Address, President Trump made inaccurate claims about the state of the economy, immigration, world affairs and federal and local investigations into his own conduct. Here’s a fact-check.

He lied; he's a liar. He knows you won't say he's a liar. So he will continue to lie & you will continue to propagate disinformation & call it hyperbole, inaccurate claims, unsupported assertions. Stop sane washing Prez Felon.
People. They can’t all be characterized as lies. Some need context. Others can be called misleading. And others
Are
Lied. But The paper has to be careful
Thank you, @nytimes.com We need you. We’re trusting and relying on you. (I kept my subscription to you when I dumped WaPo.) For the love of all things good, please don’t let us down.
Inaccurate claims? He lied. Say he lied!! He made things up. Those are not 'inaccurate claims'.
Your fealty to Trump is pathetic. So desperate not to offend, not to say anything that might make Dear Leader upset.
Way to hold to your journalistic principles!!!!!
I watched 2’; only heard « God » here, « God » there, people praying… is this a political or religious event? Just saw rich individuals feeding the mass with Christians aspirations to better control them.
And the history books will show how the 4th estate turned into pants shitting, terrified, collaborators. More concerned for the access and audience that padded their bank accounts than they were for exposing the truths that could have saved the republic. "Without fear or favor?" is now a punchline.
Good point. When I was a reporter for my college newspaper, unnecessary words were actively discouraged - concise language was encouraged. That's Journalism 101 - at least, it used to be.
Hey NYT, wouldn’t it just be easier to type the plain truth with fewer keystrokes?
He LIED! We see what you’re doing here and we’re sick of it! Just tell the truth, and maybe someday readers will trust your reporting again.
No, NY Times, fuck you.
DO NOT start now pretending to be the purveyor of truth with this ass-🤡🤡🤡.
You had your chances hundreds, THOUSANDS of times before and blew them all off.
Now we live in the cesspool of his policies and existence.
Now - TODAY - you freaking fact check. Where the hell have you been????? Too little too late. THIS is why I cancelled my subscription to the NYT. Such BS. You abdicate and genuflect for years and today you fact check?

Fuck you NYT. “Inaccurate claims.” Those are called “lies.” And where was this reporting 6 months ago when it mattered? Get fucked “old gray lady” i hope every one of you that works there is embarrassed
Let Prez. Felon #1 run USA to the ground; then we'll come back in 4 years clean it up for Felon #2 to run it into the ground. Then we'll come back clean it up for Felon #3 to run it into the ground. Give the fuckin government lithium instead of us. They are the ones who are mentally ill.
I'm sure the NYT has a tattered old thesaurus knocking around somewhere, right? There are even online versions easily accessible to anyone with a computer.
T:psychopath. GOP knew better & let him be a candidate anyway. Now we’re all paying the price. And we WILL pay the price for decades. Mark my words. He will turn on all GOP believers. Psychopaths eat you alive & they gave him a place to kill & enjoy it…they facilitated him to openly sate that desire
Inaccurate claims are lies. He does it all the time. At this point, we need to be focused on the truth. The future of democracy hangs in the balance. If you don't condemn the behavior you are condoning it.
Now more and more people don't care about the truth. Truth is always complex, while rumors are so simple and easy to get. Trump's hole can generate dozens of rumors in one minute. But you need at least 12 minutes to do one fact-check.
Still won’t accept that the Dems lost the election because the economy is basically shit for most people? Great. Bravo. An entire generation of air headed idiots stayed home over a terrorist group getting bombed for committing a terrorist attack. They should eat their checkered scarves. Idiots.
My English journalism teacher always told me to find ways to make sentences as short as possible: “In his inaugural address, President Turd lied about the economy, world affairs….” YW, pussies!!

Trying saying it. It will feel good
Of course, you could have done more of this over the past 10 years.
We like pressure better. Good results
The rapist and felon-in-charge lied about the state of the economy...
Absolutely has no integrity! Morals or Dignity! Absolutely disgusting!
Jesus FUCKING Christ, don’t realize this is why no one trusts you or reads your stupid bullshit anymore?

Are we clear on this now?
"Lie" is a perfectly appropriate word.
Wow. I mean. The NYT is just an absolute fucking disgrace.
Trump is a fucking liar. Period.
a worthless whatabout rag
you are dead to me
(works if you count NYT as one syllable)
Anyone?...
Bueller?...

Any mention of Trump's border "policies" that doesn't mention this is hiding the truth.
That would be actual reporting!
