“It’s exciting to be here, especially at this time, to be able to be unified with our community,” Pelosi said on Feb. 24. “We want to be vigilant about what is out there in other places. We want to be careful about how we deal with it, but we do want to say to people ‘Come to Chinatown, here we are — we're, again, careful, safe — and come join us.'”
Pelosi encouraged public gatherings in late February, weeks after Trump's China travel ban

First line in the OP quote:
Pretty much blows that right out of the water -
Hislegacy - loves pointing out the obvious
Trump falsely tweeted that “Crazy Nancy Pelosi” had deleted a video from Twitter of her visit to Chinatown. “She wanted everyone to pack into Chinatown long after I closed the BORDER TO CHINA,” Trump said. But there is no record such a video was ever posted on Twitter by Pelosi.

did I miss where that was posted on Speaker Pelosi's twitter page? Because the point wasn't "The video doesn't exist" which is apparently what you want the thread to be about, the point was "She posted it and then took it down.".

If she took it down it means it is no longer there. If it is no longer there no one can confirm it was there. This is the reason people delete things from their Twitter feed.did I miss where that was posted on Speaker Pelosi's twitter page?

Who fact checks fact check org? Obviously the false claims of false claims the poor OP was innocently repeating needed a bit of fact checking.

so obviously President Trump saying "it was there but she took it down" has to be considered un-proven at best or simply false. Thanks for (mostly) proving the OP's point.

The problem is “fact check” tries so hard to prove something false when something true is wrapped in political rhetoric.so obviously President Trump saying "it was there but she took it down" has to be considered un-proven at best or simply false. Thanks for (mostly) proving the OP's point.

Isn't there a simple solution to this? Can President Trump/his supporters prove the claim he made is true? If they can, please do so. If they can't, than please stop pretending "it's the fact-checkers fault!" that what he says is considered false.

That’s the rub. Most “fact checking” outlets are partisan.
I wonder how they handle Joe’s daily quarantine bunker briefs.

Pelosi doesn't do much for me. Trump should ignore her IMO. There are plenty of Democrats out there that talk sense, and he should stick with them.
It took her until Feb 25 of this year to mention anything about the virus, and the taskforce was formed on Jan 27 - and Declared the coronavirus a public health emergency on the 31. Plenty of other things happened prior - anyone can look up the timeline.
Yet, she did encourage people to come out to enjoy the celebrations in Chinatown on 2/24 - which under normal circumstances would be perfectly fine - after the emergency was called. For someone who is accusing others of not taking things serious enough - early enough? All she needs to do is check her own timeline that is published - twitter, etc - and she doesn't really have to much leeway to talk. Yet, she will and people will believe her.
This is another side of politics that I hate especially under the circumstance of this emergency.

Trump’s False Claims about Pelosi and Chinatown
China
World Health Organization
President Obama
Nancy Pelosi
Democratic Governors
Trump's false claims about Nancy Pelosi and Chinatown are all part of a larger pattern - the systematic introduction of diversions to deflect the public's attention away from this President's management/mismanagement of the nation's affairs!
By the time his claims about Pelosi have run their course, Trump will have introduced 2 more outrageous tweets or accusations to replace it and the process will start all over again!

No, it's false/unproven because he can't prove it.
