She threw out a claim, got challenged, and immediately admitted, "I don't know."
MSNBCs Katy Tur got burned by making an unfounded claim during her show on Monday.
She made a claim that has often been made as evidence of Trump-Russia collusion. At the Republican National Convention, the Republican Party decided not to arm Ukraine against Russia, Tur said, trying to wrap up her show.
Former Trump campaign adviser Sam Nunberg interrupted her, however, and pointed out, But Ukraine is armed. The former adviser, who says he can no longer stand Trump, was most likely referencing reports that the Trump administration sent weaponry and aid to the Ukrainian military.
They decided in the platform, so you could argue that Tur shot back. She quickly admitted, I dont know. Well see what happens.
But the MSNBC reporters original assertion was based on a falsehood. According to The Washington Examiners Byron York, the Trump campaign amended the original platform language to make it even tougher on Russia. The campaign did, however, tone down the language of the amendment before it was approved.
Is the Republican Party (or the Democrat Party or the Green Party) in charge of military operations? No.
The statement is as ludicrous as it is mendacious as it is uninformed.
At issue was the policy decision whether to provide “ lethal” weaponry ( ie offensive) to Ukraine vs continuing to provide defensive military aid
The GOP was being asked to adopt a stand against widening and lethalizing war in Ukraine
There are a whole host of PATRIOTIC reasons for US citizens to choose to not escalate military operations vs Russia via Ukraine proxy war
Maybe Katy Tur wants to enlist and die over Ukraine vs Russia claims to Crimea and see Ukraine become another Syria, torn apart by “ civil war” and enriching globalist energy and arms dealers
I believe Americans who voted for Trump do not - and see through this scheme
Agreed. But what is just as damning in her witless statement is that she is showing off her incredible lack of understanding of the dynamic that was going on in the Ukraine at the time.
“””””Former Trump campaign adviser Sam Nunberg interrupted her, however, and pointed out, But Ukraine is armed. The former adviser, who says he can no longer stand Trump”””””
Probably why Trump fired him. He sounds like an idiot.
Katy Tur is a policy and geopolitical strategy illiterate
As are 99.9% of all mainstream press
Katy Tur.
One “D” short of a steaming MSM pantload.
Tur conveniently neglects to mention the Democrat platform position on arms to Ukraine was identical to the Republicans.

No he is correct
We continue to provide military aid to Ukraine
Just not the offensive weapons a Clinton democrat regime steered by Adam Schiff and John Brennan would have provided
“Katy Tur.

Katy Tur likely got her job because Daddy or Uncle Somebody knew a guy. She’s a complete idiot.

That’s as funny as Occasional Cortex claiming the new military budget was an increase of $716 billion when that is the total cost of the budget.
Katy Tur. The ‘d’ is silent.

Explains why she “dated” Keith Olbermann. He was probably the father figure she lacked in her life.
