False: On June 10, President Trump told press he spoke with the Governor “a day ago”
Claim
On Tuesday, June 10, President Trump spoke to the media in the Oval Office claiming he spoke with Governor Newsom “a day ago,” when asked about the last time the two had spoken.
Fact
President Trump called the Governor once, on the night of Friday, June 7 – not “a day ago.”
A reporter from Fox News shared a graphic confirming the Governor’s recalling of the timeline – fact-checking the President’s claim (though doing so in an attempt to prove Trump right).
