  • Sharing a clip of US President-elect Donald Trump's election night watch party, social media users, along with Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Samik Bhattacharya, claimed that the people in attendance chanted Prime Minister Narendra Modi's name during Trump's speech. The clip was also shared by BJP MLA Ashok Saini, State Vice President BJP Madhya Pradesh Jitu Jirati, and BJP leader Gopal Sharma. (Archives of more posts sharing this claim can be seen here and here.) Is it true?: No. The crowd chanted "Bobby," referring to independent candidate Robert F Kennedy, who was also running for office but dropped his campaign in August and later endorsed Trump. How did we find out the truth?: We noticed PBS News' logo on the bottom-left corner of the video. Taking a cue from this, we looked for the video on PBS News' verified YouTube channel called PBS Newshour. Here, we found an eight-hour-long video titled 'WATCH LIVE: Trump hosts election night watch party in West Palm Beach, Florida', which was streamed live on 6 November. At the 7:52:14 timestamp in this stream, Trump mentions Robert F Kennedy's name, who endorsed Trump and dropped his presidential campaign in August. A few seconds later, the crowd began chanting 'Bobby', a short nickname for Robert, following which Trump says, "He's a great guy and he really means it. He wants to do some things are we are going to let him go to it." "But I just said, "Bobby, leave the oil to me, we have more liquid gold — oil and gas — we have more liquid gold than any other country in world. More than Saudi Arabia, we have more than Russia. Bobby, stay away from the liquid gold. Other than that, go have a good time, Bobby."US President-Elect Donald Trump, speaking about Robert F Kennedy PM Modi's name was not mentioned anywhere in Trump's speech. Conclusion: The crowd at Trump's election night watch party chanted 'Bobby' for Robert F Kennedy, and not 'Modi' as claimed.
