“Donald Trump and JD Vance want to dismantle our health care system, repeal the Affordable Care Act and eliminate protections for pre-existing conditions.”
— Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham of New Mexico

This is exaggerated.
Mr. Trump campaigned in 2016 on repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act, but Republicans in Congress never succeeded.

Even if he had succeeded, that is a very different thing from proving that he "wants" it. The Democrats do not possess telepathic powers and cannot read his thoughts, let alone comment on how those thoughts relate to physical or legislative action. We rate this claim false.

“Hitler wants to kill the Jews!” This is exaggerated. Hitler has just called for more living room, which we interpret to be a policy of subsidies on home improvements.

At this point, going to the Times or the Post and expecting journalism is like going to Comicon and expecting the guy in the Superman costume to fly.

That can't be real. They can't not know what "want" means.

I cannot comprehend how anyone wrote that and didn't see a problem with it and then it presumably got passed an editor. It literally debunks itself with the information it provides. That's not easy given how few words were used.

Fact: The NY Times writers are pretending this quote doesn't include the word "want."

Claim: Skeletor wants to kill He-Man and Man at Arms *Exaggerated* Skeletor ran on smashing Eternia and putting an end to that pesky He-Man and his band of do-gooders, but he was last seen tumbling out of frame in defeat.
