Bill Kristol deletes tweet, fails to apologize for jumping on phony story of MAGA hat kids

On Friday, a group of March for Life teenagers from Covington, KY were harassed by an extremist demonstrator, a Native American beating a drum, and through carefully edited video, were widely portrayed in the mainstream media as mean harassers of a poor Native American war veteran.  Taylor Day busted the fraud on our pages today, but you can quickly grasp the gist of the fraud through this video from the Daily Caller:

A number of conservatives jumped on the virtue-signaling bandwagon, accepting at face value yet another fake news story seeking to castigate Trump and/or his supporters. But those with integrity, once they realize that their eagerness to display moral superiority to other conservatives, apologized.

But not Bill Kristol. He quietly deleted his tweet claiming moral superiority for what he imagines John McCain would have done, compared to that reprobate Donald Trump (who correctly did nothing).

Too bad for him that a Twitter Account called Screenshot bot captured the tweet, exposing the cowardly retreat from the public stage when shown up as a phony virtue-signaler whose virtue was imaginary to begin with.

Not sure I’d that was sarcasm, but the hot plus video shows the kids were not at fault. The Indian is a paid shill odd soros and is a known liberal activist. He lied about the kids shouting “build the wall” when they never did such things, and he lied saying they were mocking him when they weren’t.

According to the initial reports, he’s guilty of “smirking”. I guess I missed that statute as well. Smirking at an indian. Who knew? Is it a 3rd degree misdemeanor?

I’m still not sold on this. The teens should apologize to the Native American. It was shameful.

So when someone walks up to you and beats a drum one inch away from your face, you're the one who should apologize???

Kristol has never had a following. He is simply a mouthpieces, given a platform and financing by his Neo-con promoters

This entire thing has been so overblown it’s astonishing.

Any group of teenage boys that would be approached by ANY old man,race and ethnicity aside, lecturing them or spouting nonsense would cause the boys to laugh at him.

Much ado about nothing.

HUH what are you not understanding/ The kids were waiting for their bus when this man and his far left crew went up to the kids and tried to provoke them and started to call them out for being white and European.

What the hell are you not sold on , and are you the kind which is still watching your local , or national news like CNN, ABC, CBS etc

I seriously was at the point where I would provide a mod a fun opprotunity to delete a post of mine.

I have ZERO tolerance today for any POS that still backs the lie. I dont care who they are.

I’m having to be extra chill at work today because... I’ve hit my limit of stupid people.
