The Media Tried Fact-Checking Trump After His Mar-a-Lago Presser. It Was a Trainwreck.
Townhall ^ | August 8, 2024 | Matt Vespa

Donald Trump did something Kamala Harris has failed to do since she ripped the 2024 Democratic nomination away from Joe Biden: answered questions from the press. The event, held at Mar-a-Lago, featured Trump ripping into Harris’ intelligence, announcing three dates for debates with the vice president, and warning how the nation is on the verge of economic disaster if Kamala wins in November.

The media tried to fact-check the president, and it devolved into such a ticky-tack game of linguistic nonsense that it only served as yet another reminder of why these clowns are mocked and distrusted. First, CNN tried to say that Trump was wrong to say that Kamala Harris failed to pass the bar. Harris did eventually pass—the operative word being eventually. It took Ms. Harris multiple times to pass the bar exam.

The truth hurts and has to be avoided at all costs as it will otherwise show how wrong the media generally is. /s

The fact of the matter is that Kamala Harris has not disavowed any of her previous far-left positions. Only her campaign and the press have, but what’s the difference? Her campaign and the leftwing media are one and the same

The last person you want representing you is a lawyer who ‘eventually’ passed the bar exam.

Famous People Who Failed the Bar Exam

Vice President Kamala Harris (a graduate of the University of California, Hastings College of Law) failed the California bar exam on her first try.

The Former First Lady Michelle Obama – (a graduate of Harvard Law School) failed the Illinois bar exam on her first try.

Secretary of State and past Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton failed the DC bar exam the first time she took it. She passed the Arkansas bar after that.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt failed the New York bar exam on his first try after attending Harvard College and Columbia Law School . . . and he was subsequently elected President four times!

John F. Kennedy, Jr. failed the New York bar exam twice before passing it on his third try.

Several Governors have failed the bar exam.

Former California Governor, Pete Wilson, failed the California bar exam three times before passing it on his fourth try.

Two-time governor of California, Jerry Brown, also failed the bar exam.

Several Mayors have failed the bar exam (some more than once!), including New York mayor, Ed Koch; Chicago Mayor, Richard Daley, and Los Angeles Mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa.

Notice the theme... Democrats. They make for bad lawyers and bad politicians.

American media today reminds me of a little brother who uses semantic games to find any reason to argue. Once in the midst of just such an argument when I was in my pre-teen years, my sibling said, “I’m not touching you, I’m touching your clothes.”

Once he even tried “I’m not touching you, I’m touching your skin!”

LOL

Same with Democrat media bootlickers...like little children they always find an irrelevant point to nitpick.

The deck is stacked on thier side, they are running the “you have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it” pelousi special. These two chosen parasites running around answering no policy questions, just giggles, threats, and name calling are protected by the media, radical soros groups, foreign entities, corporations and tech. How do we educate, if they can be educated? Our media sources are not thiers, campaign commercials they will not see on networks they watch, the only last bastion is the internet, X and other sources that literally have to be searched by them if they choose to. Hard road ahead
