  1. The Trump Lie On Highway approval time Trump claimed that highways used to take "21 years to get approved," but "we have that down to two years now. And we think we'll have it down to one year." -- January 24 speech to mayors Facts First: There is no apparent basis for Trump's claim that it now takes just two years to get environmental approvals for highways. According to the Federal Highway Administration's National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) page, the department's median environmental impact statement completion time was 47 months in 2018, up from 46 months in 2017 and 44 months in 2016. At a Trump event earlier in January, Council on Environmental Quality chairwoman Mary Neumayr said, "The Council on Environmental Quality has found that the average time for federal agencies to complete Environmental Impact Statements is four and half years. Further, for highway projects, it takes over seven years on average." Brad Karkkainen, a University of Minnesota law professor and expert on environmental and land use law, said in an email that he has "never heard of a highway project taking 18 or 20 years, though it's certainly possible that when the median time was six or seven years, a few projects took twice as long, perhaps more." He said some projects can "sail through" much faster than the median time, "but to suggest as Trump does that the typical time has gone from 17+ years to two years is just nonsense."

  6.  @ronprice6543  The Trump Lie on Michael Bloomberg and Hillary Clinton "But he (Bloomberg) had a deal with Hillary Clinton that he was going to become Secretary of State. It was very simple. People know that. And it wasn't going to happen. It was going to go to Terry McAuliffe. I mean, so they were playing with Michael." -- January 22 interview with CNBC's Joe Kernen Facts First: There is no evidence Clinton had a deal to give the Secretary of State post to either Bloomberg, the former New York City mayor now running for the Democratic presidential nomination, or McAuliffe, the former governor of Virginia. Trump may have been basing his claim on a hacked 2015 email exchange released by WikiLeaks in 2016. Clinton adviser Neera Tanden asked Bloomberg adviser Howard Wolfson about a media report about some Democrats having approached Bloomberg to run against Clinton in the 2016 election. As the New York Post reported, Wolfson responded that the idea was "laughable." Tanden soon asked what role Bloomberg might want in a Clinton administration, saying, "Is like Ambassador of China way too small." Wolfson responded, "Secty of state Which ain't gonna happen." Tanden then forwarded the exchange to Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta, but the emails do not show any kind of deal. Bloomberg's campaign did not respond this week to a request for comment; Tanden told CNN this week: "There was absolutely no deal. Period. It was a random email from me to a good friend, who works for him." Tanden said she has never even heard any discussions about McAuliffe as Secretary of State, "like ever." At CNN's request, Chris Bolling, executive director of McAuliffe political action committee Common Good VA, put Trump's claim to McAuliffe, then quickly called back laughing. He said McAuliffe had said, "I would love to be Secretary of State, but I had no deal to be Secretary of State."

  7.  @ronprice6543  The Trump Lie On Obama, the European Union and trade Trump said he was going to start negotiating a trade deal with the president of the European Commission, then added, "They haven't wanted to negotiate with past Presidents, but they're going to negotiate with me." He also said: "...Our country wanted to make a deal under President Obama. The EU refused to talk to him." -- January 22 press conference in Davos, Switzerland Facts First: It's not true that the European Union refused to talk to Obama about trade. In fact, the European Union engaged in three years of negotiations with the Obama administration on a possible US-EU free trade agreement, the Transatlantic Trade, and Investment Partnership. The negotiations faltered in 2016.
