I saw one “fact checker” taking issue with Trump’s assertion that “One in three women is sexually assaulted on the long journey north.” The “fact checker” said that only 32 percent were sexually assaulted.

Can anyone recall a time when the WaPo “fact-checked” a Democrat President? I think the media are skeptical only when Republicans hold the office. It’s all part of the campaign to discredit anything conservative.

That reminds me of something I read in NR many years ago. It was a short item about a trial, in which one expert witness said the evidence excluded 99.9% of the population (other than the defendant) from being at the scene of the crime, and another expert witness said the evidence excluded 99.99% of the population from being at the scene of the crime.

The defense attorney roared that "the prosecution's so-called expert witnesses can't even agree on their own conclusions!"

There's a good chance that "fact checker" was raised on common core math.
