Former President Donald Trump did a Monday interview focused on foreign policy.

He repeated a bunch of his regular false claims on that subject and others while sprinkling in some new inaccuracy for good measure.

In the interview with conservative commentator Hugh Hewitt , Trump also made an assertion that he has been to Gaza .

CNN and other media outlets have found no evidence that Trump ever went there.

Wallace interjected during this debate exchange to try to get Trump to allow Biden to answer Trump ’s question about the money.

Wallace never said anything like that.

Trump repeated his false claim that $85 billion in US military equipment was left to the Taliban upon the US withdrawal from Afghanistan under Biden and Harris .
