A social media post implied that President Donald Trump was golfing or campaigning as the coronavirus spread. We find this to be true.
βOn social media, users began sharing a list of dates that purported to show all of the times Trump went golfing or held rallies after being warned about the pandemic. The post implies that if Trump had time for leisure and campaign activities, then the administration should have had time to address the coronavirus. ... The information in this post has been rated true because Trump did host rallies and play golf on the listed dates in the early stages of the coronavirus spread.β
Someone actually felt the need to fact-check this? That is, someone somewhere seriously thought there might be even a remote possibility that Donald βI donβt take responsibility at allβ Trump didnβt host rallies and play golf while he was ignoring and downplaying the coronavirus pandemic?
