Claim 2: “Nearly three dozen high-profile and extremely wealthy technology, finance and other business executives attended President Donald Trump’s state dinner with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the White House on Sept. 24.”

Claim 3: “This German hi-fi brand has been making loudspeakers since 1926.”
DISPUTED
The claim states a 'German hi-fi brand' has been making loudspeakers since 1926. However, the evidence shows that Tannoy is the brand established in 1926, and Tannoy is based in the Highlands (Scotland), not Germany. Another German brand mentioned, HECO, was founded in 1949. There is no evidence of a German brand fitting the 1926 description.
