PHOENIX President Donald Trump kicked off a three-day string of rallies with a typically rambling, typically falsehood-strewn speech on Wednesday in a traditionally Republican state that he barely won four years ago.

Weve done more than any administration in history, he told supporters during his 82-minute address, in which he veered from boasting of his accomplishments to insulting the Democratic candidates who were in the midst of a primary debate a few hundred miles north in Las Vegas. Millions of registered Democrat voters are leaving their party to join our Republican Party .

While Trump often makes false assertions in official speeches, posts online, and off-the-cuff remarks to the media, his campaign rallies tend to deliver the largest number of falsehoods per unit of time, and Wednesdays event did not disappoint.

Trump claimed he had created the strongest economy ever even though former President Barack Obama oversaw the creation of 1.5 million more jobs in his last three years as president than Trump has in his first three.

He claimed African American and Latino unemployment are at all-time lows despite the fact that those rates have been creeping upward for the past several months.

He claimed to have cut taxes by a record amount even though former presidents Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush both signed larger tax cut bills.

On health care, Trump said, Were protecting people with preexisting conditions and we always will ignoring the fact that his administration is backing a lawsuit that would eliminate that protection and that he previously pushed a bill to repeal it.

He claimed to have passed the Veterans Choice Act although Obama signed that legislation into law years before Trump took office.

He even claimed to have 25,000 attendees at his rally though the arena in which it was held, the Veterans Memorial Coliseum, only holds 15,000.
