The following article by Meg Kelly was posted on the Washington Post website June 16, 2017:
Two years ago, Donald Trump rode down the escalator at the Trump Tower and launched a presidential campaign that changed history. (Here’s our fact check of his announcement speech, in which we described Trump as “a fact checker’s dream — and nightmare.”)
In this Fact Checker video, we rewind the tape and look at what he said then — and what’s changed now, including:
• the unemployment rate (he called it “nonsense” on the campaign trail; now he touts it as legitimate);
• China currency devaluation (he no longer blames them for devaluing their currency, which was false to begin with);
• and immigration (he promised to end Obama’s executive order granting deferred action to children of undocumented immigrants, which he now says he won’t do).
