Heather Cox Richardson:

• Trump said that some Democratic states allow people to execute babies after they’re born and that every legal scholar wanted Roe v. Wade overturned — both fantastical lies.
• Trump said that the deficit is at its highest level ever and that the U.S. trade deficit is at its highest ever: both of those things happened during his administration.
• Trump lied that there were no terrorist attacks during his presidency; there were many.
• Trump said that Biden wants to quadruple people’s taxes — “pure fiction,” according to CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale
