Donald Trump was repeatedly fact-checked during his 2024 election debate with Kamala Harris on Tuesday, 10 September.

The former president was quickly slapped down by moderator David Muir after each false claim during the event in Philadelphia.

As Mr Trump spoke, the vice president looked in disbelief at him before laughing.

In one of the more bizarre moments of the debate, Mr Trump claimed that immigrants in Ohio are abducting pets and eating them.

He also said that Tim Walz has said "execution after birth is OK", as well as further false claims about the 2020 election.
