Remember back during the 2012 debates when moderator Candy Crowley decided to “fact-check” Republican candidate Mitt Romney? And she was wrong?

Donald Trump brought up states that have laws where hospitals can deny medical care to a baby after it’s been delivered. Davis jumped in an “fact-checked” him on that:

.@LinseyDavis just pulled a Candy Crowley and tried to fact-check Trump during the debate, falsely claiming that “There is no state where it is legal in this country to kill a child after it is born.” Fact-check coming @BreitbartNews.
