.@daveweigel of the Washington Post just admitted that his picture was a FAKE (fraud?) showing an almost empty arena last night for my speech in Pensacola when, in fact, he knew the arena was packed (as shown also on T.V.). FAKE NEWS, he should be fired.
sorry for spelling account wrong
.@DaveWeigel @WashingtonPost put out a phony photo of an empty arena hours before I arrived @ the venue, w/ thousands of people outside, on their way in. Real photos now shown as I spoke. Packed house, many people unable to get in. Demand apology & retraction from FAKE NEWS WaPo! https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/939616077356642304
Weigel already apologized.
This is great! President Trump is training them!
Washington Post reporter apologizes for tweet on crowd size at Trump rally

Washington Post reporter Dave Weigel issued an apology to President Trump on Saturday for tweeting a photo of an empty arena before a Trump rally in Florida that had been taken hours before the event started.
Weigel responded minutes after a tweet from Trump, who said he had “put out a phony photo of an empty arena hours before I arrived.”
Weigel said he took the tweet down after Daily Mail political editor David Martosko told him he had gotten it wrong.
“Sure thing: I apologize. I deleted the photo after @dmartosko told me I’d gotten it wrong. Was confused by the image of you walking in the bottom right corner,” he tweeted.
And the sad thing is that they think they are smarter then we are!
The news just gets faker and faker. Thank goodness for citizen and presidential oversight.
Fake news reporter from a fake news paper posting a fake news photo on Twitter. Fake news people are just annoying.
He knew he got it wrong. It was an intentional lie.
I am sure this sounds repetitive, but I am so thrilled to have a president who fights back.
GWB (or Romney or McCain, had they won) would have “taken the high road”, remained silent and let their enemies smear them.
Not this guy!
Probley under orders from his boss.
It still amazes me just how stupid the media people are, and I think pond scum is smarter.
To put out fake pictures that are so obviously and easily proven to be fake - what is the point? Just to prove they are incredibly stupid and not believable?
And why would a company be willing to have their “serious” enterprise turned into a comic strip?
I guess being a commie is just so important to the media companies and their employees that they just don’t care that they are never believable any more.
Fakers gonna fake.
They weren’t used to someone who would call them out. Like any bullies, they back down when someone finally stands up to them.
Guess this idiot thought that millions of Americans that couldn’t go to the packed arena were watching it on RSPN and other channels and knew it was a packed house...
I don’t believe ANYTHING I read or hear anymore...seems like everything is to break up from Our President and the more they try, the worse they are getting at it...
Get over it people, WE the American People voted for Our President and he is YOUR President also, so suck it up and get over it!!!

We haven't connected in at least a year, BTW.
Ha! Ha! Ha!
They wouldn’t even be holding rallies as POTUS. This is a carryover from the Trump campaign. I predicted he would continue them after he became President and he has because it was obvious he was having the time of his life and it helps him stay energized as President.
That is because they don't understand the difference between "cunning" and "clever" - the former is based in deceit, the later: logic and reason.
They never learned critical thinking skills. Learning how to create hypotheticals fostering the latest groupthink that supported the agenda was far more important.
They have lived in a bubble, where everyone told them they were smart. It all depended on fostering the agenda.
They desperately want to be the one to bring down President Trump. They are not used to being questioned.
