The New York Times “fact-checked” President Trump’s statement that Democrats “want open borders” and proclaimed it “false.”
Linda Qiu wrote in the NY Times’ “Fact Check Of the Day” on Wednesday:
No, Democrats Don’t Want ‘Open Borders’
President Trump has falsely claimed at least two dozen times since taking office that Democrats want to open American borders. But legislation shows that Democrats support border security measures, though not the border wall he wants to build.
Welp, that settles that!
For some reason, not everyone was satisfied:

Actually, the (growing) progressive wing of the party does want open borders. https://t.co/i4OGRWUaK6https://t.co/plqN7lSR3Bhttps://t.co/roP6ssd6D4

Can’t imagine why trust in the media is at historic lows. Opinion masquerading as a fact check. Fail.
