CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale gets fact-checked over Trump and '302 great Supreme Court justices'

CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale tweeted that Donald Trump said at the RNC yesterday, “We’re going to end up with 302 great Supreme Court justices.”

Trump: "We're going to end up with 302 great Supreme Court justices." (Sic.)

Since he’s all about facts and all, maybe he can correct his erroneous tweet? The president actually said, “We ended up with 142 judges, and then we’ve added many, many, and we’re going to end up with 300, and two great Supreme Court justices.”

One of these is a real quote and the other is from CNN's "fact checker"

There’s even video, Daniel:

"300 new judges, by the end of the first term we will have appointed 300"
"We will have appointed 300."
"We ended up with 142 judges, and then we’ve added many, many, and we’re going to end up with 300, and two great Supreme Court justices.”
