      To get to 2.4 million new jobs, Trump has to count jobs created in the last three months of Obama's term. It's 2 million-ish, probably less, under him:pic.twitter.com/CbnVQrid4J

          Apple did not say it is newly investing $350 billion. It said $350 billion is the 5-year total of “new investments and Apple’s current pace of spending”; the current pace is $55 billion per year, a pace of $275 billion over five years. From its press release:pic.twitter.com/K9K1toxLaa

          I don't call the "regulations eliminated" claim "false," because it's very murky, but it's clear Trump is exaggerating how many he has killed. Useful Bloomberg story:https://twitter.com/ddale8/status/947164896596316160 …

          Excellent journalism here: Bloomberg finds Trump is taking credit for "killing" more than 100 regulations that were already dead under Obama, and counting Obama acts as his own deregulation achievement after making tiny tweaks: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-12-29/trump-stretches-meaning-of-deregulation-in-touting-achievements …

          The U.S. has long "exported energy to the world." Trump is suggesting it has now become a net exporter, which is still not true. It has become a net exporter of natural gas alone.

          Chrysler is NOT "moving a plant" from Mexico. It is shifting production of one truck, the Ram, from a major Mexico plant in Saltillo, which will now make other vehicles and see no layoffs.

          Jobs have not stopped leaving. Labour group Good Jobs Nation found "93,449 jobs have been certified by the Dept. of Labor as lost to trade competition or corporate outsourcing since Trump's election...higher than the average job loss rate of 87,576 for the preceding five years."

          "Hundreds" of terrorists is false, an exaggeration. Here are the real numbers:https://twitter.com/PolitiFact/status/958538870567600129 …

          Trump claims, “In the past, we have foolishly released hundreds and hundreds of dangerous terrorists, only to meet them again on the battlefield.” From 2002-16, 122 detainees from Guantanamo returned to terrorist activities.

          He just hasn't had time to mess up that much of Obama's economy. After a bit more time goes by, tRump recession will kick in. The massive drop in the stock market today may be just the start.
