AP FACT CHECK: Trump's tall tale on 'record' judges, income
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is exaggerating his record when it comes to federal judges and the economy.
With midterm elections three weeks away, he is claiming a "record" 84 judges confirmed to the federal bench and suggests he will fill 50 percent of the seats in the judiciary. It's not a record, and he's nowhere close to half.
On median income, Trump boasts to voters that they're making more money than ever before. His own Census Bureau disagrees.
Meanwhile, Hurricane Michael has shown that Trump can't always be counted on to give accurate information when a natural disaster unfolds.
