The Washington Post quote below is real. I'm not sure if it's the one I saw on Yahoo. But if it's not the one, it's darn close.

"So on immigration, Republicans say we need strong border security, and Trump comes right out and says Mexicans are rapists and we need to build a wall."

This is a weasel wording. Yes Donald said Mexicans are rapists — CERTAIN Mexicans, that is. But this is the way the English language works.

If people do not look for weasel wording in technically true statements from media that they have EVERY REASON IN THE WORLD to know tell lies — then that’s on the people.
