Of course not. Obama lied that one time!
80% Of Central American Women, Girls Are Raped Crossing Into The U.S.

As the number of Central American women and girls crossing into the U.S. continues to spike, so is the staggering amount of sexual violence waged against these migrants who are in search of a better life.
According to a stunning Fusion investigation, 80 percent of women and girls crossing into the U.S. by way of Mexico are raped during their journey. That’s up from a previous estimate of 60 percent, according to an Amnesty International report.

O
The funny thing of course is that the previous few politifact "lies of the year" were largely Republican attacks e".

I'm not exactly sure why Trump supporters think this helps their cause though, unless they think it is fun to deny safety to women and children who are victims of sexual violence. Additionally, my suspicion is that Trump and CBS were talking about two different contexts, though I'd have to read/listen to Trump's speech and I have no desire to do that.
That's because Politifact is a left wing site
#Duhhhhh

Trump said 1 in 3. The resistance warriors at CBS fact-checked it with Amnesty international and found it to be 60-80%
#OUCH
The OP named a source that “actually, you know, exists”. So, what’s your source for what, you know, “probably” goes on in the OP’s neighborhood?There's probably more rapists in your neighborhood. Because your neighborhood actually, you know, exists.

President Trump stated that a significant number of these ladies are sexually assaulted during their travel.
Trump declared that 1-in-3 women were assaulted on these trips, but CBS found him to be incorrect.

Sexual assault is always funny, yes.
Can we assume you unquestioningly believe and support Amnesty International now? I'd love to see someone post some of their other claims so we see you agreeing with them.
By the way. AI said what they "believed" almost 6 years ago. Was Trump worried about all those "ladies" being assaulted then? I'm sure he was. And the Republican base, too. What actions did you all take to go down and help the "ladies"?
That statistic from Amnesty Itl is over five years old and this is the only citation that I could find.President Trump stated that a significant number of these ladies are sexually assaulted during their travel.

That's exactly what I don't understand. How do these Trump supporters actually think this statistic favors them?The right is obviously concerned about the sexual violence these women encounter in Mexico
So concerned that they want to build a wall and deny them asylum so that these women are stuck in Mexico

He must be talking about his own sexual escapades.
