‘If Anybody Needs To Be Fact-Checked, It’s The Media’: Kayleigh McEnany Unloads On Jim Acosta
Daily Caller ^ | May 28, 2020 | Virginia Kruta

“Shouldn’t the president be fact-checked, especially this president who has made so many false and misleading statements that has put fact-checkers to work across the world?” Acosta asked “These 18,000 false or misleading statements according to the Washington Post, if there’s any president out there we should be fact-checking, or political leader that should be fact-checked, isn’t it President Trump? Aren’t you trying to silence fact-checking by going after Twitter like this?”

“If you’re going to get into the fact-checking business, there is no one that should be fact-checked more than the mainstream media that has been continually wrong about a number of things,” McEnany shot back, going on to list several that stood out in her mind.

Their version of “fact checking” is: if President Trump says “it looks like it may rain” and it does not, they scream LIE!!!

Had obozo been given the scrutiny Trump has the number of obozo lies would have been in the millions. In her first term alone,

And I’d like to know... is anyone fact-checking the Washington Post? They say the President lied, oh well, if they say so it must be true. How dare anyone question that tabloid rag? Who fact-checks THEM?

I knew that even before her 1st news conference having watched her for years on CNN. She was surrounded by liberals there but she was more than a match.

She reads off a list of lies and insinuations on the part of the media. Acosta pretends like she never even said that.

Same with the voter fraud issue.

Of note. Here’s @JoeBiden in January to @nytopinion: “Section 230 should be revoked, immediately should be revoked, number one.” Why? “It should be revoked because it is not merely an internet company,” he said of Facebook. Worth reading it all, again.

“...These 18,000 false or misleading statements ...” If Acosta can name one false or misleading statement, POTUS (or for that matter many on FR) can make him eat his words. What they have called lies have in fact been true. Name one!!

According to the NYT Trump has told 18,000 lies/misleading statements during his presidency.

He has been in office a little over 1,200 days. That means Trump tells 14 lies a day! Since liberals actually believe this ridiculous statement, please hold their feet to the fire and make them list the 14 lies Trump told that day and the day before that, etc. It’s not true so they won’t be able to do it, which makes them look even stupider...plus it pisses them off, which is worth the time spent engaging empty-headed fools.

It might as well be. The same stuff comes out of his mouth that empties into a diaper.
