Actor Michael Rapaport has admitted that he helped spread the left’s Trump Charlottesville “very fine people” hoax, saying he was “wrong” to have promoted the lie.

Michael Rapaport spoke about the hoax during a recent interview on the Patrick Bet David (“PBD”) podcast.

“One thing about the Charlottesville — that I ranted about, and I was wrong,” the actor said. “When you see the full quote, that wasn’t what he said.”

So he just admitted he’s an illiterate, partisan hack with no critical thinking skills to speak of? Good to know.

Is it ok to apologize after you played your part to end America?
Gee, I’m sorry I got your husband killed when I spread the rumour that he was playing with a gangster’s wife.

There’s a plot next to Seth Rich for actors with consciences.

He played the gym teacher on Boston Public in the 1990’s. He’s probably done guest spots over the years, but I think that was his largest part.

I do not understand how these people, who are millionaires, can not seem to afford to hire someone to fact check what actually happened before they open their cake holes.

I am not just talking about him, there have been any number of celebrities who flap their yap over things and it is obvious they do not know the first thing about the issue.

Then it sounds like he has a great future in DC.

Like Dustin Hoffman in the Graduate, he just has to listen to one word to guide his career: “Plastic.”

He’ll go far.

Was that a popular show?
I haven’t seen tv since at least 2004.

I used to watch so much tv that I ended taping about 115 VCR tapes of shows that I could never get around to watching, so I just quit.

“Recognize the name, but don’t recall any visuals”

Been in a lot of “things” but most always a secondary character. I think he did a few episodes of Friends. A movie going back to the 90’s was OK called Beautiful Girls, Matt Dillon, Natalie Portman, Umma Thermond and Timothy Hutton. He has been a real screaming clown liberal, Oct 7th seemed to wake him up a bit.

This lie is what Biden claimed inspired him to run for President.

Not only did Trump *not* say this at all, he indeed said completely the opposite.

It was an outrageous lie that unfortunately was not really refuted to counter the narrative - not even by the Trump camp itself.
