Trump Unbound

From a NYTIMES email:




President
Trump breaks so many of the normal rules of politics that it can
sometimes be hard to know when his tweets and comments are truly
newsworthy. Even by his standards, though, the past several days have
stood out. Consider:





  • Trump
    said on Monday that a plane “almost completely loaded with thugs”
    wearing “dark uniforms” had been headed to the Republican National
    Convention to do “big damage.” The claim is similar to a baseless conspiracy theory that spread online over the summer, well before the convention.

  • He
    has declined to condemn the killings of two protesters in Kenosha, Wis.
    He instead defended the 17-year-old charged in the shootings — a Trump
    supporter named Kyle Rittenhouse — saying he was acting in self-defense. Trump also promoted a Twitter post that called Rittenhouse “a good example of why I decided to vote for Trump.”

  • He defended violence committed by his supporters in Portland, Ore., who fired paintballs and pepper spray at Black Lives Matter protesters.

  • He compared the police shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha to missing “a three-foot putt” in a golf tournament.

  • He claimed that “people that you’ve never heard of” and “people that are in the dark shadows” are controlling Joe Biden.

  • He
    claimed Democrats were trying to “destroy” suburbs with “low-income
    housing, and with that comes a lot of other problems, including crime.”
    He added that Cory Booker — one of the highest-profile Black Democrats — would be “in charge of it.”

  • He predicted that the stock market would crash if Biden won.

  • He said that Biden,
    at the Democratic National Convention, “didn’t even discuss law
    enforcement, the police. Those words weren’t mentioned.” In fact, Biden
    held a discussion at the convention on policing, with a police chief.

  • Trump claimed
    that he “took control of” the situation in Kenosha by sending in the
    National Guard. In fact, Wisconsin’s governor, not the president, sent
    the National Guard.

  • He retweeted messages asserting that the pandemic’s death toll was overstated. Evidence indicates the opposite is true.

  • He said that protests against police brutality were actually a secret “coup attempt” by anarchists “trying to take down the President.”








Biden has taken a very different approach
to the unrest in Kenosha, Portland and elsewhere. He has told no
apparent untruths, and he has criticized violence from both the
political left and right — even though many liberals, whose votes Biden
needs, are uncomfortable with any criticism of people on their side of the debate.







G.O.P. reaction.
The Times tried to reach about a dozen leading congressional
Republicans and ask for their reaction to Trump’s claims. “None cared to
comment,” Mark Leibovich writes. Senator Mitt Romney offered one of the few public responses, calling the president’s comments “simply jaw-dropping.”




Russia adds to the misinformation. A group backed by the Kremlin is again trying to meddle in the U.S. presidential election and push voters toward Trump, Facebook and Twitter said yesterday.

Dudley Lies about Polls

Hillary was up by 18 points on Trump at this point . . .

No, she wasn't. You are lying again. She was up by six points.

Dudley is lying about HRC's 2016 lead in the polls. In June of 2016, she had EXPANDED her lead to 6 points.

"(CNN)Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump by six points, 44% to 38%, in a Fox News poll of registered voters released Wednesday, marking an uptick from similar polls released in May and June."

Trump Says Virus Is "Dying Out"

He's a pathological liar, which apparently is what our room liars like about him.


"Coronavirus cases are rising in 22 states, including Oklahoma, where you plan to hold a big rally this week. Aren't you worried about people getting sick?" - Gray TV's DC bureau chief Jacqueline Policastro - interviewing Trump

"No, because if you look, the numbers are very minuscule compared to what it was. It's dying out," said Trump.

Trump Claims Credit for Juneteenth

"I did something good: I made Juneteenth very famous . . . It's actually an important event, an important time. But nobody had ever heard of it." - Donald J "Lysol" Trump - June, 2020



https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/18/politics/donald-trump-juneteenth-credit/index.html



"Between the lines: 47 states, plus D.C., recognize
Juneteenth as a state holiday, but legislation to declare it a national
holiday has repeatedly stalled in Congress, according to the Congressional Research Service."

Fox, Ethics, and Images

The Seattle Times caught Fox News using photo-doctored images to make the Capital Hill Autonomous Zone appear to be a war zone. After the Times asked Fox to explain, Fox removed the altered images.



"Fox News published digitally altered and misleading photos on stories about Seattle’s Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) in what photojournalism experts called a clear violation of ethical standards for news organizations."

Obama was elected in November, 2008. Bush’s Great Recession began in December, 2007. In Johnson’s mind 2008 happened BEFORE 2007.

TRUMP: “They didn’t use tear gas.” - Fox News Radio on Wednesday, referring to the previous night’s demonstrations outside the White House.



KAYLEIGH McENANY, White House press secretary: “No tear gas was used. … no one was tear-gassed. Let me make that clear.” - briefing Wednesday.



THE FACTS: People were tear-gassed.

"Today in American Nazi news: A BuzzFeed News reporter had a charming run-in with a couple of Donald Trump supporters involving a Third Reich propaganda slogan this past weekend. At the conclusion of a rally in Cleveland, these two specimens approached the press pen and started yelling "lügenpresse," the German non-word meaning "lying press," while a Backstreet Boys song blasted in the background."
