On the campaign trail, President Donald Trump pledged to defund Planned Parenthood because, he said, of the abortion factor. A Nov. 25 Facebook post appears to show him attacking actor Danny DeVito, who is pictured with actor Mark Ruffalo wearing T-shirts that say I stand with Planned Parenthood. Above the image is what appears to be a Donald Trump tweet saying: Danny DeVito supports baby murder. In response, it appears Mark Rufaflo replied: What about me asshole? This post was flagged as part of Facebook’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Facebook .) That’s because on Nov. 17, conservative Carmine Sabia actually tweeted Danny DeVito supports baby murder above the photo of DeVito and Ruffalo. Searching for Danny DeVito supports baby murder online, we couldn’t find any instances of Trump tweeting or saying that. We didn’t unearth it searching Trump’s Twitter account, either. And such an online skirmish would certainly draw media attention, but looking in the Nexis news archives for stories about Danny DeVito and Donald Trump and baby murder, we found none. We rate this post False.
