Those items of information AP listed can very easily be verified. LTC, if you think AP is lying, prove it.

Are we conflating illegal aliens and immigrants again? It's a popular tactic among the Left and their shills in the news and cultural media...

No, that is not what this article is about. It is about Trump not knowing (or caring) about the truth on issues. He just says whatever he wants.

The problem with fact checkers are they are usually biased themselves. I wont go through the entire list but here is one example of a study that challenges the current state data on the number of illegals in this country.
The AP didn't mention this study at all. Do you think they are unaware of it or it did not support their view so they omitted it? If they are unaware of it then they are a rotten news organization. I tend to lean toward "it didn't support their view" so they discarded it and ran a biased fact check.

Yale Study Finds Twice as Many Undocumented Immigrants as Previous Estimates
Immigration is the focus of fierce political and policy debate in the United States. Among the most contentious issues is how the country should address undocumented immigrants. Like a tornado that won’t dissipate, arguments have spun around and around for years. At the center lies a fairly stable and largely unquestioned number: 11.3 million undocumented immigrants residing in the U.S.

Cpl Jeff N. - I did not say I was ignoring it.
Don't like all those illegals taking American's jobs? Go after those who hire them!

Fact checks are just like studies. They very often come out the way the people who paid for them want them to.

MSG Stan Hutchison - My post wasn't about illegals taking jobs. It was about the "fact checkers" not always having all of their facts correct.
