Fact checking websites like this (which ironically tend to do lies of omission etc.) are probably among the most annoying minor consequences of the Trump presidency
It's basically just for libs to congratulate themselves. I'm absolutely certain not a soul on this Earth has ever been swayed from one politician to another by a fact check.
Yeah, like maybe you'll get people switching from Mayo Pete to Kamala Harris or vice versa after reading a fact check article on some minutia, but they are basically the same politician.
one of my favorite people to imagine is a liberal guy who is surrounded by qanon people so he has passively absorbed a lot of that stuff but thinks it's bad. like he believes that tom hanks and hillary were hanged at gitmo but is really sad about it
Hillary Clinton: "The sky is blue". Fact check: mostly true.
Donald Trump: "The sky is blue." Fact check: did this moron know that there is a thing called "night"? And that the sky is dark black during it? In many parts of the world, night is over half the day. To say nothing of dawn and dusk when the sky changes colors. We rate this: pants on fire.

Agreed.
The funniest part is that trump's lies were so obvious that they didn't even need to be fact checked lmao

Trump has been taking the mole children from their natural habitat!
And they still managed to make their "fact-checking" about liberal ideological talking points rather than verifiable facts.
