That’s an outright lie, and please stop wasting our time with that, because he’s capable of doing so much more.”

— Brian Kilmeade of Fox News, speaking on his talk-radio show, blasted Donald Trump over his 2020 election claims, The Wrap reports.

Trump’s Biggest Healthcare Lie

January 14, 2020 Buck Banks

“Since he began running for president, Donald Trump has been lying about health care in general, and protections for patients with preexisting conditions in particular. Trump’s long-standing lie is that he has a plan to help people with preexisting conditions afford insurance, or will shortly unveil such a plan. His most recent version of this lie goes even farther. Trump is now saying that he actually created the protection for preexisting conditions, and that Democrats are trying to take it away. … This is the literal polar opposite of reality.”
