    Media Invented Lie About Trump Mocking Disabled Reporter

    Media Invented Lie About Trump Mocking Disabled Reporter

    Just when you think the media could not possibly become more loathsome, the Fourth Estate bullies prove you wrong again. The Washington Post’s latest ugliness was to exploit the disability of a newspaper reporter in order to smear the Republican nominee for president. Then — and this is the least surprising part of the story — the Post lied about it.

    Other than the subject of that paragraph — which I slyly switched from Trump to the media — that is an exact paraphrase of the Post’s opening lines from an editorial hawking the media’s most successful lie about Donald Trump: that he mocked a man for being disabled.

    I have a chapter on that lie in my new book, In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!, It was perfectly obvious that Trump was not mimicking any disability that Serge has, but I didn’t have the smoking gun to prove that the media were lying and knew they were lying. Now we have it.

    A group called Catholics 4 Trump has posted a video clip of another part of that same speech, in which Trump imitates a flustered general. Guess what? He does the exact same arm flailing.

    In another speech, Trump pretended to be a timorous Ted Cruz. Again, he does the exact same arm flailing. You can see the videos here: http://www.catholics4trump.com/the-t...ld-trum…

    Neither the general nor Cruz is disabled.

    If a jury ever saw these videos, it would acquit Trump immediately. Trump’s impression of a groveling reporter is just like his imitation of a groveling general and just like his imitation of a groveling U.S. senator. He’s like Rich Little that way: All his impressions look the same.

    Perhaps Trump is not a subtle actor, but he’s utterly innocent of making fun of a disabled person.

    Now consider the media’s role in manufacturing, and then protecting, this lie.
    Reporters were at Trump’s speech. They were filming it. They saw him do the identical imitation of a general during that same speech.

    The media knew damn well that Trump does the arm-waving routine whenever he’s pretending to be a flustered person. But they never allowed the public to see the clip of Trump doing the same imitation of a general.

    That is proof that the media knew they were lying...

    ummmm...no....he did it. I haven't seen the other videos you're talking about, but even if he does the same motions, it doesn't excuse what he did to the disabled reporter.

    Only if you assume that he even knew that the reporter was disabled to begin with.

    So does that mean that all those guys qualify as "stupidly disabled" in Trump's eyes ? That's one way of interpreting him.

    So he has done this on numerous occasions and the one time a disabled reporter is there it becomes personal?

    Politics make me sick

    Everyone is spasmic compared to Trump, including the spasmic guy.
