Donald Trump Falsely Claims Justice Samuel Alito Supported His Sister
Life News ^ | 2/26/2016 | Steven Ertelt

Posted on 02/26/2016 5:45:41 AM PST by agrarianlady

"Apart from the fact that judges do not sign bills into law, pro-life attorney Matt Bowman of Alliance Defending Freedom indicates Trump is wrong on the point and that Justice Alito, when he was a lower court justice, not only did not agree with Judge Maryanne Trump Barry on opposing a bill to ban partial-birth abortions he went out of his way to indicate how he disagreed with her.

While some pro-life voters were shocked that Trump continued to defend Planned Parenthood others are shocked that Trump would defend his sister's support for partial-birth abortions by falsely maligning a pro-life Supreme Court Justice who went to great lengths to be on record opposing abortion."

In short, Ted is telling a lie of omission and he knows it. Ted also knows the lie of omission will fool a certain amount of people, you can see that here on FR. But more and more people are seeing through the lies Ted tells because the more he does it the lower his numbers go.

Now Rubio is doing it - great plan. Both are committing political suicide in real time. Just watch.

“Trump supporters are so far up his butt that there is no possible way they will turn back now.”

And Cruz just pushed his Cruz-bots up Rubio’s butt.

What was left out of the interview in September that changes the meaning of the words coming out of his mouth? What context do you have that says something different?

You’re changing the subject. What was omitted hear that changes what Donald said?

9/27/15
Trump: I’m going to take care of everybody. The government’s going to pay for it.

2/26/16
Cruz: Donald, true or false, you’ve said that the government’s going to pay for everybody’s health care?

Trump: That’s false.

You are not understanding what a lie of omission is. You are giving a great example of one. Think about it.

My reply 6 was to post one which was about Trump’s 2011 comments about Libya. It wasn’t about HC. Follow the conversation.

Actually, it was the reverse. Trump-Barry supported Alito. Let’s not get the facts in the way of a perfectly good character assassination attempt.

Tell me more about this “lie of omission” thing. Here’s the full interview, without omission:

Scott Pelley: What’s your plan for Obamacare?

Donald Trump: Obamacare’s going to be repealed and replaced. Obamacare is a disaster if you look at what’s going on with premiums where they’re up 45, 50, 55 percent.

Scott Pelley: How do you fix it?

Donald Trump: There’s many different ways, by the way. Everybody’s got to be covered. This is an un-Republican thing for me to say because a lot of times they say, “No, no, the lower 25 percent that can’t afford private.” But—

Scott Pelley: Universal health care?

Donald Trump: I am going to take care of everybody. I don’t care if it costs me votes or not. Everybody’s going to be taken care of much better than they’re taken care of now.

Scott Pelley: The uninsured person is going to be taken care of how?

Donald Trump: They’re going to be taken care of. I would make a deal with existing hospitals to take care of people. And, you know what, if this is probably—

Scott Pelley: Make a deal? Who pays for it?

Donald Trump: —the government’s gonna pay for it. But we’re going to save so much money on the other side. But for the most it’s going to be a private plan and people are going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition with lots of competitors with great companies and they can have their doctors, they can have plans, they can have everything.

I’m with you. The very freedoms on which this country was founded are at stake. Period.

I am following it quite well. You said Cruz and supporters tell lies of omission. I asked if this latest lie by Donald (which Cruz exposed) was an example of that. You seemed to indicate it was but gave no data to back it up.

Just Ted telling another lie of omission. He knows good and well she was originally appointed by Reagan. He knows he can fool people by omitting that information. And he does fool people - even here on FR. Note that ever since Ted started telling lies, half truths, and misrepresentations he’s went DOWN in the polls. Not a good plan was it? Ted’s committing political suicide right before our eyes, in real time.

Lie of omission;

“Also known as a continuing misrepresentation, a lie by omission occurs when an important fact is left out in order to foster a misconception. Lying by omission includes failures to correct pre-existing misconceptions.”

But somehow, that plan is significantly different to single payer socialized medicine. Nobody knows how, but Trust the Donald, you’ll find out later.

I was more inpressed with the Mouth’s admition that he likes to import foreign workers using the Visa program to clean his hotel rooms, mow grass and clean pools. Because out of 100+ Million unemployed Americans he can’t find less than a 1,000 to do that work.

At least that is his claim, However according to the Article they temp agency that they used said after a few were sent over and hired they stopped calling asking for more. (American Labor to expensive for Donnie)

It was also very informative to know that Donnie paid a million dollars for hiring Illegal Polish workers to work on his building.

This is the same Baffoon people are expecting to Build a wall and kick out 11-20 million Illegals? Really? Why would he do that when they are according to him the ONLY ones he can get to work for him?

Then there is this little Trump University Fraud case. Donnie is going to be cross examined in July? Talk about handing Hillary a gold mine of Material.

Wake Up America!

Your edited snippet doesn’t include all he said in that interview regarding what he plans on replacing Obamacare with. As others have stated very well, its a lie of omission.

How’s that working for Cruz & Rubio so far? I know it worked REALLY well for Jeb lol.

9/27/15 Trump: I'm going to take care of everybody. The government's going to pay for it.

You missed this part of the same interview:

Donald Trump: --the government's gonna pay for it. But we're going to save so much money on the other side. But for the most it's going to be a private plan and people are going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition with lots of competitors with great companies and they can have their doctors, they can have plans, they can have everything.

You pick at nits on Cruz, while Your Donald is a full blown socialized medicine proponent and a life long liberal.

"But look at this! Cruz said Clinton appointed her!! But Clinton appointed her later! Reagan appointed her first!!"

Seriously, who cares about such minutia? They both appointed her at different times, but your candidate is on the record supporting socialized medicine. That's not minutia, that's yuge.
