When he signed an executive order, President Trump said two ‘pants on fire’ lies:
“We will have reform without undermining our many great and
extremely talented law enforcement officers. President Obama and Vice President
Biden never even tried to fix this during their eight year period. The reason
they didn’t try is because they had no idea how to do it, and it is a complex
situation.”
You can view that statement at 4:11 in a 5:16 YouTube video from The Hill on June 16, 2020. At FactCheck on June 17, 2020 Lori Robertson debunked
it in an article titled Trump wrong on Obama-Biden actions on policing.
But at MSNBC’s Morning Joe, as shown above, they demolished
it in less than two minutes via a series of brief clips in another YouTube
video titled Trump falsely claims Obama WH didn’t reform policing. That video also
was embedded in an AOL article by Jane C. Timm titled Trump says Obama didn’t
reform policing. But he did and then the president ditched it.
