Democrats Present 'Doctored' Video of Capitol Riot During Trump Impeachment Trial
PJ Media ^ | 02/10/2021 | Matt Margolis

Posted on 02/10/2021 7:21:38 AM PST by SeekAndFind

At the start of the Senate impeachment trial, House impeachment managers presented video “evidence” of the mob that stormed the Capitol. The Hill described it as a “disturbing video documenting the Jan. 6 siege by interweaving Trump’s address to a group of supporters calling on them to march on the Capitol with violent footage of the attack.”

Interweaving? That’s correct, the video presented by the Democrats was not a straight video of Trump’s speech, but rather a collage of selectively edited clips of Trump’s speech mixed with select clips of video from the assault on the Capitol.

I’m sorry but didn’t the media call videos edited like this “doctored” recently?

Why yes, they did!

In May of 2019, Nancy Pelosi stuttered her way through a press conference following a failed meeting with Trump, a compilation was compiled and shown on Lou Dobbs Tonight on Fox Business. President Trump retweeted the video. The Hill described the video Trump shared as “edited to make it seem like [Nancy Pelosi] was stuttering,” Reuters ran an article with the headline: “Trump retweets doctored video of Pelosi to portray her as having ‘lost it.’” “Trump shares heavily edited video that highlights verbal stumbles by Pelosi and questions her mental acuity” read the headline at the Washington Post.

The impression the media gave was clear: the video was a deception, designed to make Pelosi look bad. The problem was that Pelosi’s stuttering was very real, and each cut between stutters featured a wipe transition, making it obvious it was a montage.

DISHONETESY AND DECEPTION

Even a video shared by Trump showing Joe Biden in his basement being sniffed and fondled by another Joe Biden was labeled a “doctored” video. Even the tiniest of alterations were dubbed “doctored”—implying the intent of deception.

Yet, fast forward to Tuesday, February 9, 2021, and the Democratic Party used a video juxtaposing select quotes from Trump’s speech with select moments from the Capitol riot, and the media is fawning over it. “Trump Trial Opens With Harrowing Riot Video” reported International Business Times. Politico ran with the headline: “Trump’s second impeachment opens with haunting video of Jan. 6 riots.” Reuters, which described the Pelosi montage as a “doctored video” didn’t undermine the authenticity of the video in their headline, “Senators vote to proceed with Trump#8217;s impeachment trial after graphic video.” According to their report, “The video presented by the team of nine House of Representatives Democrats interspersed images of the Jan. 6 Capitol violence with clips of Trump’s incendiary speech to a crowd of supporters moments earlier urging them to “fight like hell” to overturn his Nov. 3 election defeat.”

Amazing how suddenly using a montage is no longer called “doctoring” a video? Worse yet, the montage presented by the Democrat impeachment managers is far more manipulating than the montage shared by Trump of Pelosi. By “interspersing” video of Trump’s speech with select moments from the riot, the video is attempting to directly link the two events as connected in a deceptive manner.

The manipulation of the masses through technology. This would have brought a tear to Hitler’s eyes, and a shout of joy. Fascism is alive and well in the Democrat Party

I’m convinced of a couple things.

1. Trump probably is RELIEVED to be out of that hell hole thankless job.
2. Trump is probably grinning as each day goes by, as he sees the hypocrisy unfold and the failings of Biden and company.
3. In time, even the media will admit that Biden won by election fraud, and yes, they will start writing of the transparency of Trump vs the closed down administration of Biden.
4. The people will view Trump favorably, and the handful of GOP Senate traitors will each be defeated next election, along with the dozen or so in the HOuse.
5. In short, I think Trump comes out of this better off than had he been in office with his following in tack.

The “fact checkers” are simply not credible. They are partisan hacks pushing partisan propaganda and nothing else.

This is all agitprop from the same corrupt AF FBI and CIA that planted fake news stories in the BezosPost as “evidence” for further investigations when Trump first took office.

Did Trump’s attorney’s discredit the video by referring to the tape as “Doctored”

Democrat journalists won’t ever complain. Snitches get stitches and blacklisted from the fascist network of Big Tech and Big Corp and the Deep State.

Recall that Barack Obama spied on journalists and sent several filmmakers to prison because they offended him.

Hillary even promised that she’d “get” the patsy filmmaker she wholly blamed as the cause of the Benghazi terrorist attack on 9-11-2012.

is anyone really surprised that they would mislead, misinform, and lie, that’s just what they do, it just comes so natural to them.
