5 bullshit claims at Trump's raucous rally in Grand Rapids

President Trump swooped into Grand Rapids on Thursday and was in true form – derisive, arrogant and full of shit.

In his first rally since Special Counsel Robert Mueller submitted his report on alleged Russian collusion, Trump claimed the auto industry was roaring back, Democrats are executing newborn babies and liberals want to eliminate airplanes and cows.

Sound absurd? Not to the sea of red hats that cheered him on and booed the media and Democrats.

Here are five bullshit claims Trump made in Grand Rapids:

1. “The Democrats are now advancing an extreme $100 trillion government takeover called the Green New Deal. But I'd rather not talk about it tonight because I don't want to talk them out of it too soon because I love campaigning against the Green New Deal. … I want them to make that a big part of their platform — no more airplanes, no more cows, one car per family. One car!”

No one is suggesting eliminating airplanes, cows or cars. The Green New Deal is an aspirational resolution to address the terrifying consequences of climate change.
