Point out that fact checkers are not the Supreme Court. There is no Supreme Fact Checker.
Point out that you're going to vote however you want to, regardless of what fact checkers say.
There is no Supreme Court of science. Such a thing is absurd. I hear many Democrats calling for a Supreme Court of science.

The only people who are surprised at this are the ones who think that the goal of fact-checking is to verify accuracy.
Fact-checking is nothing more or nothing less a justification for censorship of things that go against the approved narrative. Go read down in the fine print of some of those "fact checks" some time. I think my favorite was the one about, "Did Hillary Clinton really acid wash her mail servers?" with a fact check of FALSE, with the following deep down at the bottom of the long explanation: "Hillary Clinton did not apply a caustic substance to her mail servers."
These people know exactly what they're doing; they're counting on the general laziness of people to read a headline and not investigate further, in forming their opinion on a subject.

"Facts" and "Truth" are in the eye of the beholder. Objective truth doesn't exist. Truth depends on your framework, and Republicans and Democrats have different frameworks.
Data and Logic are objective.
What counts is ranking facts by importance. This is a critical skill. Democrats cannot quantify importance. They take lesser facts and treat them like greater facts. Democrats ignore the facts that Republicans consider to be greater facts.
For a Republican, in the top tier of importance are the 1st and 2nd amendments. I vote Republican for the simple reason that they support these amendments. Case closed. I don't give a damn about the lesser arguments of Democrats.
What is true in level 1 logic can be false in level 2 logic. Fact checkers have simplicity bias.
My mathematics guru, Professor Beck of U. Wisconsin, said:
Never assume if you don't have to. If you have to assume, assume in the direction of complexity, not simplicity. Don't trivialize the problem.
Einstein: Things should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.
Einstein: Complex problems have simple, easy to understand, wrong answers.
These weasel words from fact checkers have the same style as the weasel words that government workers use when they have to answer questions in a congressional hearing.
The NSA issued a denial to the charge that they spied on Carson, and their denial was so weasely that it was equivalent to a confession.
In Gingrich's fiction novels, there are many scenes of weaselness at congressional hearings.
Being scientific means characterizing a problem as accurately as possible. Fact checkers are fragrantly unscientific. They inject bias. They don't at all try for accuracy.
