    Fact Check: Trump lied 46 times at recent rallies Forty-six false and misleading claims the president has made at recent rallies.

There were six speeches and combined, Trump spoke for more than eight hours, averaging about one hour and 20 minutes per speech. Below is a compilation of 46 of the false and misleading claims he made; Trump often repeated those claims at multiple rallies. We have organized them by subject matter. Trump spoke in  Sanford, Florida , on Oct. 12, his first rally since recovering from COVID-19. It was the shortest of the five speeches, at just over an hour. The following night, the Republican nominee spoke in  Johnstown, Pennsylvania,  followed by an Oct. 14 rally in  Des Moines, Iowa , then  Greenville, North Carolina,  on Oct. 15. He finished up the week with two rallies: one in  Ocala, Florida , and another in...
