Donald Trump told “Meet the Press†host Chuck Todd on Sunday he was not taking back his comments that American Muslims in New Jersey were cheering after September 11, 2001.
Todd repeatedly grilled Trump for saying last week “thousands and thousands†of Muslims in Jersey City, NJ, celebrated the World Trade Center attack. In fact, Todd spent more than half of the interview questioning and even rejecting Trump’s claim.
“You demand and you’ve demanded of me pinpoint accuracy when I report on things about you, including, for instance, your net worth,†Todd said in his very first question of the interview. “Why shouldn’t we demand the same pinpoint accuracy in the claims that you make?â€
Trump didn’t back down, instead pointing to the calls, emails and tweets he has received from supporters backing up his claim.
“I saw it. So many people saw it … So, why would I take it back? I’m not going to take it back.â€

He apparently was.
Bit concerned here that Donald is giving this moron more ratings points than he deserves.
Journalism and broadcast journalism have attracted the dregs of subgrade intellectualism.
When the old networks and print media finally go belly up, these cretins will try to pop up in the new thing and continue to spew forth their despicable, shallow, half-baked and false views on society.
The new media when it emerges more should mature to the point that there will always be an ignore button and a like button so that viewers and readers are always in control of who gets promoted as their favored reporters.
I have trouble imagining what line of work people such people as F. Chuck Todd should land in. Their dishonesty and bias is so thick, they seem lost and unrecoverable. They should not be anywhere near any form of reporting to the public but where could they be safely and productively placed? Park Ranger? Prison Guard?
Any job profession would seem to be at risk of being tainted and damaged by these kinds of people.
Where do you direct people whose ethics and views are so twisted and dishonest?
I’m stumped.
This kind of gang mentality in trying to slaughter conservatives is picking up steam. If you notice the left is trying to paint most all conservative philosophy as racist & not fit for public discourse.

It’s not just the Dems and MSM! Bush, Rubio and Kasich are also trying to stifle anything said by Conservative candidates Trump and Cruz.
“In Jersey City, within hours of two jetliners’ plowing into the World Trade Center, law enforcement authorities detained and questioned a number of people who were allegedly seen celebrating the attacks and holding tailgate-style parties on rooftops while they watched the devastation on the other side of the river.”
Over the weekend, authorities raided a small apartment building in Jersey City to search an apartment rented by two men who were detained in Texas on Wednesday, on possible immigration violations. Mohammed Jaweed Azmath, 47, and Ayub Ali Khan, 51, both from India, were taken into custody Wednesday on an Amtrak train in Texas, carrying $5,000 in cash, hair dye and box cutter knives — weapons said to have been used by the hijackers. During the raids in Jersey City, authorities detained a third man, Abdoul Salam Achou, 37, whose visa application allegedly expired on Sept. 1.
Investigators also detained three men in Elizabeth, N.J., who were carrying a large amount of cash and a one-way ticket to Syria. The three men, Ahmad Kilfat, 45, Mohammad Mahmoud Al Raqqad, 37, and Nicholas Makrakis, 27, were in a red Pontiac that matched an FBI description of a vehicle connected with the attacks.
[you dont kow what the work literally means, literally.]
What?
yep
Boy, the press sure is touchy about being asked to report things accurately.
I haven’t either, before the primaries....Trump really has upset everybody’s apple cart and his supporters keep growing and standing behind him, and are very loyal...something we haven’t seen since the Reagan days...
This is not your normal election, but I am a 100% Trump supporter and I’m having the time of my life and one hell of a ride to boot....
GO TRUMP GO!!!
The liberal democrat media cabal thrives by accumulating minorities of various kind. Muslims are the latest addition.
LOL...we belong to the same club; which keeps on growing bigger and bigger by the day! :-)
Of course they did and take note the liberal whining has gone from “the celebrations NEVER happened” to “there were no thousands celebrating”.
The lame reasoning they use now is the complaints of celebrating Muslims “could not be verified. What exactly does this mean? The FBI reported numerous calls and investigated them. Is the LSM actually claiming ALL these people who called are lying? Or are the media types saying because they themselves never saw any celebrations they never happened?
If you have a link to this you should post it here.
