Protesters' blockades weren’t to blame for the turnout. There was no sizable effort by protesters to keep attendees from getting in

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump falsely said at his rally Saturday night that Democratic rival Joe Biden apologized for opposing his restrictions on travel from China early in the coronavirus pandemic. Scrambling to explain an unusually thin rally crowd, his campaign wrongly pinned blame on blockades by protesters for driving the masses away.

THE FACTS: Protesters' blockades weren’t to blame for the turnout. There was no sizable effort by protesters to keep attendees from getting in. The city fire marshal’s office reported a rally crowd of just less than 6,200 in the 19,000 seat BOK Center, according to Tulsa Fire Department spokesperson Andy Little.TRUMP, on tariffs: “China’s not exactly happy with me. Billions, they pay us billions and billions of dollars ... I took that money and I gave it to the farmers."It's wrong to suggest that tariffs on Chinese goods are being paid by China. Tariff money coming into the treasury is mainly from U.S.

THE FACTS: This is a distorted history of a pandemic in 2009 that killed far fewer people in the United States than the coronavirus is killing now. For starters, Joe Biden, as vice president, wasn’t running the federal response. Federal public health officials were not at all flying blind when the H1N1 pandemic, also known as swine flu, came to the U.S.

Oklahoma is among the nearly half the states that have seen coronavirus infections rise since May when governors began loosening social distancing orders and as more people were able to get tests. “Melania and I send our best wishes for a memorable celebration to all those commemorating Juneteenth,” says the 2019 statement outlining events of June 19, 1865, when Union troops arrived at Galveston, Texas, with news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were free.TRUMP, on abusive policing: “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.

Public pressure may be more intense on Congress now to pass sweeping laws on policing, after nationwide protests over the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. But the limited steps Trump took Tuesday steered around Congress.TRUMP, on scientists: “These are the people – the best, the smartest, the most brilliant anywhere, and they’ve come up with the AIDS vaccine. They’ve come up with ... various things.” — Tuesday at the White House.

AP FACT CHECK: Trump at rally falsely cites a Biden apologyPresident Trump claimed at his Tulsa rally that Joe Biden apologized for opposing his travel restrictions on China early in the pandemic. But he didn't apologize, and he actually supported the restrictions. He didn't support the restrictions until AFTER he called them xenophobic. Once again, trump proves he’s incapable of telling the truth. Fact check: 100% bull shit
