Less than two weeks from the 2018 Midterm Elections Donald Trump has tried to scare his supporters into coming out and vote by making stuff up…

“They have intercepted many people from the Middle East,” he said.
“They’ve intercepted good ones and bad ones. They have intercepted wonderful people for the Middle East. And they have intercepted bad ones.”
