During the recent presidential debate tonight, President Joe Biden repeated the claim that former President Donald Trump called neo-Nazis and white supremacists 'very fine people' in reference to the 2017 Charlottesville rally. This assertion, often referred to as the Charlottesville hoax, has been widely debunked by multiple fact-checkers, including Snopes and other liberal fact-checkers, which confirmed that Trump explicitly condemned the neo-Nazis. Despite this, Biden reiterated the claim, which he has used as a cornerstone of his 2020 campaign and political narrative. Trump responded by stating that the Charlottesville story has been fully debunked and accused Biden of perpetuating a falsehood. The debate moderators, including CNN's Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, did not challenge Biden's statement.

CLAIM: Joe Biden said (again) that President Donald Trump called neo-Nazis in Charlottesville “very fine people.” VERDICT: FALSE. Trump said the neo-Nazis should be “condemned totally.” Biden knows he is lying about this. https://t.co/cObxFHnLxc
I wish Trump would repeat clearly what he said about the neo-Nazis at Charlottesville. Biden Charlottesville lie. Here is the full text. Trump: “And you had people, and I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally. But…
Joe Biden brings up the Charlottesville "fine people on both sides hoax." This is the moment when unbiased moderators would point out to Joe Biden that Snopes and every other fact checker have pointed out that it's a lie. Yet Jake Tapper and Dana Bash naturally didn't do it. https://t.co/6iU48Ibstj
Biden talks again about his son dying in Iraq apropos of nothing and then repeats the lie that Trump called Nazis with torches in Charlottesville “fine people” and that’s why he ran for president. Trump points out the story has been “fully debunked.. He made it up.” Says Biden…

Trump: "He made up the Charlottesville story. ... It was fully debunked. ... It's a nonsense story."
CNN was pushing the Charlottesville hoax in the pregame show… It’s been debunked by even the liberals. If you play it the rest of the sentence he totally denounces the bad actors it in real time. Is CNN going to fact check Joe Biden on this lie they’ve perpetuated for years?

Biden brought up the Charlottesville "fine people" hoax again. Horrible idea. Everyone knows it's a lie...including those spreading it. #Debates2024
Joe Biden previously has been fact checked by @CNN for his lies about guns. Expect him to recycle the same falsehoods during the debate tonight. Will @CNN hold him accountable for his lies? #NRA #PresidentialDebate #DebateNight https://t.co/rzgvAhYHr8
At tonight’s debate, CNN has a chance to regain some credibility — and maybe some audience! Will they be honest enough to admit that the Charlottesville Hoax was a lie (as verified now by Snopes), and ask Biden why he constantly repeats that myth??? https://t.co/LmFFPw2gyi https://t.co/Anu7Vd2Hqd
