  • President-elect Donald Trump made numerous false claims in a Monday news conference at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida.

The article from MSN, titled "Fact Check: Trump Makes False Claims About Immigration, Tariffs, and Global Conflicts," scrutinizes several statements made by former President Donald Trump. It debunks his assertions on immigration by clarifying that there is no evidence to support his claim that immigrants are bringing diseases into the U.S. at an unprecedented rate. On tariffs, Trump's claim that tariffs on China paid for tax cuts is refuted, explaining that tariffs are paid by American importers, not directly by China, and do not offset the cost of tax cuts. Additionally, Trump's comments on global conflicts, particularly his suggestion that conflicts like the war in Ukraine would not have occurred under his presidency, are challenged with evidence showing that such conflicts are complex and not solely influenced by U.S. presidential actions. The fact check also addresses his misrepresentation of economic impacts and his tendency to oversimplify or misstate facts for political gain.
