CBS's team is actually being very critical of Trump, fact-checking him. Even Tony Dokoupil has.

I've listened to only part of it, switching channels. But from what I've heard, they're taking his speech apart.

Editing to add that Tony just brought up Trump's claims about 250,000 people on the voter rolls who shouldn't be as something that many viewers might worry about, and others on the team shot that down as likely to be a number that's way off.
