A look at some of the rhetoric Thursday from Trump and his supporting speakers at Republican National Convention proceedings:TRUMP: “Instead of following the science, Joe Biden wants to inflict a painful shutdown on the entire country.
His shutdown would inflict unthinkable and lasting harm on our nation’s children, families, and citizens of all backgrounds.”THE FACTS: That’s false.
Biden has publicly said he would shut down the nation’s economy only if scientists and public health advisers recommended he do so to stem the COVID-19 threat.
