That education and healthcare and whatever else he's promising can be free. There is no such thing as free someone always has to foot the bill. But you have been conditioned to not believe this kind of dishonesty is called lying. Almost everything he says is a lie.
You realize that there were people celebrating in NJ after 9/11 as proven by video and newspaper articles and that there are no-go areas for police in London as proven by testimony from London police?

When has he ever claimed that it will be free?
Source?
Speaking as someone who just lived in London for two and a half years: bullshit. What testimony?

This is why everyone is still saying "You Can't Stump The Trump". Despite the outrageous-sound things he says, he's not been wrong.
If Trump said "The sky is blue", Politifact would rate his statement "pants on fire" because at night it turns red and orange and at night it's black.
If Hillary made the same statement, they would rate her "mostly true". Politifact has been garbage for a while.
