The New York Times being the New York Times.

It is one thing to have a (mistaken) opinion and present it as fact. But that should only happen on the editorial page. It absolutely should not happen in a headline.

I think NYT doesn’t know what a lie is! Now what Trump said isn’t a lie, now it may not be proven (yet) but that isn’t a lie by definition because the NYT doesn’t know themselves if it’s TRUE that illegals didn’t vote

Let us not forget that Obama told one illegal to vote as no one would know. There is a video of that somewhere.

I see nothing wrong with Trump goading the Fake Stream Media. Their narrative won't swing many future voters outside CA and NY.

If anything, these continuing petty attacks on DJT show the media's desperation to stay in business, by appealing to their gullible audiences.

What California Board of Elections member would challenge a motor-voter ID carrying illegal alien demanding to register to vote?

What is the penalty for illegal alien fraud in the sanctuary state?

Oh, shoot, this is an easy lie to disprove. First, let's count the number of states that actually require proof of ID to register. Now, add in those states that require proof of ID which would identify citizenship to vote, then subtract states that permit open vote by mail without providing the slightest amount of identification and you'll have a probable number of illegal votes.

So, umm, Trump's likely right. Or maybe he's wrong. The actual issue is that WE CAN'T TELL. Now, if a newspaper actually got the voting records (including vote by mail) and actually investigated to find out how many of those voters were not citizens (say through a FIOA request from the White House for green cards issued by the Obama administration to children of illegals), they could actually prove or disprove Trump's statement.

Gosh, can you imagine a drive by media outlet doing that?

There is ABJECT FEAR on the left regarding this issue.

They are HELL-BENT to get it debunked, and debunked PERMANENTLY, and NOW. The question is why?

The answer is OBVIOUS - any investigation WILL NOT end well for them and they will lose huge numbers of ‘voters’...maybe not enough for Trump to have a majority of the popular vote in 2016...but any number means that REFORMS will have to be done.

How is that false? There is no voter ID in a lot of these Dhimmicrap states, so the worst you can say is that it’s unverifiable (but probably true.)

Hey! Failing New York Slimes! Prove that you are not a bunch of douchebags. You can’t, can you?

I didn’t think so.

I was inclined to be skeptical about this claim, but seeing that the New York Times has flat out called it a lie I am now convinced of its truth!

Time for photo id with proof of citizenship to register and to vote!!

Apparently, they think they’re the Ministry of Truth, and get to make things untrue by sheer fiat.

Remember that when they got into Detroit’s ballots and found major discrepancies, they immediately shut down Jill Stein’s recount.

In a country where it is illegal to make a voter identify himself, its not hard to imagine significant vote fraud.

So the slimes asserts that illegal votes didn’t tilt the popular vote? Let them prove it. Given past behavior, Slimes can not be believed without truth.

This should be the number one problem for the Trump administration to solve. If this issue goes unsolved all is lost.

CA made it legal for illegals to register and vote in CA elections. There’s nothing stopping them from filling out the federal part of the ballot if they so choose. Millions of illegals voted in this election.

The LIE is for the NY Times to call this a “lie” because it is President Trump offering his opinion about what the intersection of perverse liberal trends (tens of millions of illegals, lax laws and enforcement, Obama and Democrats encouraging illegals to vote etc.) might have meant for the level of illegal votes in 2016.

Actually, the NY Times has NO IDEA what the truth of the matter is, but like any dedicated libtards they assume their belief is correct and denounce everything else as a “lie”....

Note that the NY Times is slandering the President of the United States on something they have no way of knowing is a lie. They should have thier press credentials revoked, banned from all federal offices and then sued for slander.
