Fact-checkers evaluating Donald Trump state of the Union Address found most of it to be untrue in varying degrees, with only four percent of it grounded in reality.

The website Politifact actually crashed about midway through Trump's speech, possibly related to the constant updating of untrue statements and the number of people checking in and hitting 'refresh' as each new lie came through every few seconds.  The outage lasted only about five minutes.

Politifact found that "several of (Trump's) points were factually flawed", rating many of his claims about tax cuts as "mostly false" or "false".  The orange clown took credit for economic progress that occurred or began under the Obama Administration, such as reducing black unemployment - the trend began in 2011; and although Trump was correct when he said that black unemployment was down ten percent, 90 percent of that reduction came during the Obama years.

Daaaahhhhhhrrrrr

Trump was at his most divisive when he spoke of immigration reform.  He claimed, "Under the current broken system, a single immigrant can bring in virtually unlimited numbers of distant relatives."  Republicans refer to it as "chain migration", but it actually doesn't happen that way - this is false.  Legal immigrants can sponsor their spouses, children, parents, and siblings in a complicated process that takes many years to achieve family reunification.  Distant relatives, such as cousins, cannot be sponsored for residency.

The opposition had remained quiet through most of the speech, but Democrats booed and hissed at Trump when he tried to tell that immigration lie to their faces.  Trump "blatant lies about Family Reunification," tweeted Arizona Democratic Congressman Ruben Gallego from the House floor.  "He has zero understanding how this works."
