His assumption was not false. It was true. Rachel Maddow was the guest and she tried to give some more information to defend Obama, but I don't think she really succeeded. Like in almost all of these cases, there were half-truths involved. Obama knocked Romney because Romney suggested that the auto companies should declare bankruptcy, when in fact Obama let the companies declare bankruptcy. Granted, Obama's plan was slightly different from Romney, but Obama didn't mention that the Obama plan called for the companies to go bankrupt. How misleading is that?

Obama is pointing his finger at Romney and blasting Romney for wanting the auto companies to declare bankruptcy, when in fact Obama's plan was for the auto companies to declare bankruptcy. The major difference in the plans was that Obama's plan called for government help after bankruptcy. Romney's plan did not.
