During a Monday campaign stop in Derry, New Hampshire, former Republican President and 2024 GOP candidate Donald Trump kept fact-checkers busy.
Trump as usual made numerous false claims or told straight up lies during a rambling speech.
One tidbit of misinformation spewed was the 2024 presidential candidate's claim no terrorist attacks occurred between January 20, 2017-January 20, 2021—Trump's tenure in the Oval Office.
Trump told his cheering MAGA minions:
"If you notice, all of the problems, all of the big problems, they all stopped [during Trump's presidency]."
"And I never talked about it during my four years, but look what happened: we didn’t have any [terrorist] attacks in the United States for four years."
After boasting about what he'd do day one if elected, Trump repeated:
"But we didn’t have an attack for four years."
You can hear him make the claim here:

Others also called out Trump for the lie.
He literally is a domestic terrorist.

He has also claimed we felt safe during his presidency. Did you feel safe?
We had a mismanaged pandemic under his presidency.
Leaders of other countries simultaneously dismissed and hated him.
He was still legally president during J6.
Did you feel safe?
I have NOT

— Biden-Harris HQ (@BidenHQ) Trump said there were no terror attacks when he was president. Obviously not true.
And, there was also that mess at the Capitol.

Donald Trump fuels domestic terrorism with far-right propaganda.

Fact Checking...
Since the war on terror never ends, we were never safe.
Since Donald Trump is a domestic terrorist, we were never safe.
And we will never be safe as long as MAGA exists.
Fact Check Completed.

CNN fact checker Daniel Dale dissected Trump’s New Hampshire campaign speech for half-truths, misinformation, false claims and lies.
On the Republican candidate's terrorism claim, Dale stated:
"Facts First: Trump’s claim that 'we didn’t have an attack for four years" isn’t true. The claim is inaccurate even if he was referring specifically to attacks by Islamic extremists."
Excluding the act of domestic terrorism on January 6, 2021 for which some organizers have been found guilty of seditious conspiracy, Dale cited five separate incidents in the United States between 2017 and 2019 that Trump’s own Justice Department appointees labeled as terrorist attacks.
