Fact check: There were shortages, supply chain issues when Donald Trump was president
The claim: There were no shortages when Donald Trump was president
A meme being shared on Facebook claims there were no shortages when Donald Trump was president.
“We didn’t have no gas shortage or food shortage under Trump,” reads a July 19 post. “In fact, there was no shortage of any kind.”
The post was shared more than 800 times in less than two weeks.
In January, Trump made a similar comment during an interview when he claimed there weren’t supply chain problems while he was in office.
Our rating: False
Based on our research, we rate FALSE the claim that there were no shortages when Trump was president. There were shortages of medical supplies early in the pandemic that forced health care workers to reuse disposable equipment, including masks. There were also widespread shortages of toilet paper, hand sanitizer and other items.
