and the entire narrative will be based on a lie:

16 Aug: The Hill: The media couldn’t be more blatant in distorting Trump’s words on Charlottesville
By John Lott, Jr
But Trump never said that the white supremacists and neo-Nazis were “very fine people.” He said that there two different types of people protesting the taking down of the Robert E. Lee statue – the racists (“some very bad people in that group”), and people who thought that for the sake of history it was important not to take down the statue...
Trump: “And you had people, and I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally. But you had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and white nationalists.
“OK? And the press has treated them absolutely unfairly.”
Reporter: “You were saying the press has treated white nationalists unfairly? (inaudible) understand what you’re saying.”

Trump: “No, no. There were people in that rally, and I looked the night before. If you look, they were people protesting very quietly the taking down of the statue of Robert E. Lee. I’m sure in that group there were some bad ones. The following day, it looked like they had some rough, bad people – neo-Nazis, white nationalists, whatever you want to call them.

“But you had a lot of people in that group that were there to innocently protest and very legally protest, because you know – I don’t know if you know, they had a permit. The other group didn’t have a permit.”
President Trump made it very clear that his comment did not pertain to “neo-Nazis and the white nationalists.” When a reporter misinterpreted his very clear statement, Trump again made it clear that the bad people were the “neo-Nazis, white nationalists.”

How much clearer could the president be?
The press continually misreports Trump’s statements...
Does the press just think that no one will look at what Trump actually said? For those who do look at the original interview and Trump’s multiple, clear statements on the matter, the media risks losing what little credibility it still has.

the FakeNewsMSM has given people a licence to riot, to degrade, to threaten and, perhaps, even kill a democratically-elected President.

why? because they colluded with the Clinton campaign to get their nominee elected, and FAILED.
they will use any means necessary to avoid having to answer for their very real collusion (witness the Podesta emails, which the FakeNewsMSM vitually ignored).

Chuck Toad has JC Watts. Toad said nobody from the administration would come on. Watts says Trump did not respond the right way. Watts cites resigations of Trump's business council, one from faith council.

Toad says the president has lost moral authority. Asks how does he regain it? Watts says something about having advisors. Watts repeats that rump does not understand the magnitude of being the president.

Toad calls for the president to repudiate his remarks.

Watts says Trump's remarks put salt in the racial divide wound. He says Trump gave the impression that he sides with evil.

Watts says that Ryan and the others who arenlt following Sasse, McCain, Graham are pretty much endorsing Trump.

Next up - a replay of Toad's interview with Young from yesterday.

As we all know by now it really doesn’t matter what the President says or does the drivebys already have their marching orders to make impeachment happen and little will get in their way.

They are almost certain that most people will never hear what Trump actually said. Almost no one goes to the source, especially not the people who think that the leftist media actually reports the news.

The fake news media's lies and half-truths are immortalized on the internet, ready to pop up with any internet search. Even if the lying leftist media formally retracts a lie, that news is buried on the internet after many entries which repeat the lie.
