Claimant: Donald Trump (R)
Claim: The world is getting cooler, ice is “bigger than it’s ever been,” and the term “climate change” replaced “global warming” because warming stopped.
Rating: BLATANT LIE
Explanation: Global average temperatures have risen for decades, and all 10 warmest years on record have occurred since 2015. Arctic sea ice and the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets have also declined over time, contradicting the claim that global ice is larger than ever.
