Trump Says Something True About Obamacare. So, Naturally, Politifact Lies About It.

On Thursday, left-wing fact-checker Politifact, a site known more for its biases than its quality fact-checking, stepped into a pile of dung once again. This time, they blasted President Trump with a fake news fact-check that demonstrates just how dishonest they are.

Here’s their headline:

White House tweet wrongly says Obamacare led to fewer insurance optionshttps://t.co/HUA7EB6iHp pic.twitter.com/kDOSTPLoH5

So, what did the White House say that was so wrong? Trump stated, “Obamacare has led to fewer health insurance options for millions of Americans.”

This is indisputably true. Just yesterday, Anthem Blue Cross pulled out of the Obamacare exchanges in Wisconsin and Indiana. Health insurance rates have risen dramatically. As CNBC reported last week, “As many as 1,200 counties are projected to have just one such insurer next year. More counties could be left ‘bare,’ or with just one insurer in coming weeks as insurers announce their intentions.” And this doesn’t take into account the fact that many Obamacare plans have cut patients off from their doctors – if you liked your doctor, you couldn’t keep your doctor.

Here’s Politifact admitting the truth all the way at the bottom of their “fact-check”:

The sole thread of truth is that with the insurance exchanges set up by the law, the number of carriers has dwindled.

Oh, you mean the only claim here was true? And you made up a series of alternative claims to knock down?

It's quite comical that the left rely on this site for "fact checking" solely because they have the word "fact" in it -- clearly facts are irrelevant.

Didn't you know Obamacare is failing because of Trump? Oh and the Russians.
