In a tweet on Tuesday, Jack Posobiec said Donald “Trump decided to *not* work with Cambridge Analytica during the election.”
Our ruling
Posobiec tweeted that “Trump decided to *not* work with Cambridge Analytica during the election.”
There is an element of truth in that the campaign reportedly relied on the RNC’s voter files, and not Cambridge Analytica’s data, to identify likely supporters.
However, even the news report behind Posobiec’s tweet said that the firm continued to provide some services to the campaign. FEC filings show the Trump campaign continued to pay Cambridge Analytica through the final months of the campaign, and key operatives from Cambridge Analytica and the Trump campaign described the firm’s ongoing work.
We rate this claim Mostly False.
