JavaScript if (result == "false" ) ?

Sorry I'm having a dummy day .
I'm trying to filter out event.target that does not contain "elem" ,
and return; .
But
Code: 
let result = CloneId.includes("elem");
always returns "true" .
Code: 
// Create a copy of it
var clone = event.target.cloneNode(true);    // 159

clone.addEventListener("dragstart", (event) => { drag(event); });

console.log("clone.id = " + clone.id );

let CloneId = "elem";
let result = CloneId.includes("elem");

console.log("result = " + result)

if (result == "false" )   {
console.log("result == false") ;
return
} ;

What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks for your Help...

you would have to put that condition out first. so that as soon as it is detected you return. As far as the syntax:
if( result != true )

if( !result )

if ( result == false )

Anyone of these will do the same
