Donald Trump humiliated as Presidents Cup speech torn apart by fact-checker

Donald Trump served as honorary chairman at the Presidents Cup in Chicago, where his brief speech ahead of Sunday's play was interrupted by a heckler and quickly disputed by fact-checkers. During his remarks, Trump claimed the stock market and 401(k) plans were at all-time highs while asserting that general prices and inflation were decreasing.

CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale swiftly challenged Trump's economic assertions, reporting that overall grocery prices had risen by 3.4% since January 2025. In response, White House spokesman Kush Desai defended the president, stating that recent reports showed price declines for items such as beef, chicken, and prescription drugs.
