Trump appears to know the exact number of times Democrats mentioned him at the DNC

Former President Donald Trump attacked the Democratic National Convention at a joint rally in North Carolina on Wednesday alongside his running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH).

This comes as the ratings for the Democratic convention in Chicago show that it is pulling higher viewership than the RNC in Milwaukee last month.

The convention, he said, put "Trump Derangement Syndrome" on display. He noted that his name was uttered "271 times" at the convention, while the economy was mentioned "12 times" and the border wasn't mentioned at all. (Democrats are planning to address border security and immigration during tonight's speeches.)

The former president also proceeded to make several false claims about national wellbeing statistics under the Biden administration.

Trump claimed that it just emerged that the jobs numbers are "a total lie" and the Biden administration was "caught" trying to fabricate them. He is likely referring to recent reports that nonfarm payroll growth over the last year is being revised down by 818,000 jobs — an unusually large figure, although these revisions occur all the time, it isn't a result of intentional fraud, and the revised figures still show a solid figure of around 2 million jobs created last year.

He also claimed that the latest statistics showing a decrease in crime are fake because it excludes the results from several cities. Trump has been making this claim for months, but it is not true — he is referring to a very commonplace challenge the FBI faces year to year in estimating unreported crimes and smaller police departments struggling to report their data, and even accounting for those issues, crime is still considerably down.
