Why does the media keep repeating the lie that Trump said neo-Nazis were "fine people"? Law professor Ann Althouse comments:
I suspect that they keep repeating the falsehood because they are so clearly wrong that they can't find any way to back down. And I also think they've seen the effectiveness of this attack on Trump. It has worked as propaganda, so why stop now? The hit to their credibility has already occurred, so why not keep manipulating minds?
https://althouse.blogspot.com/2019/03/a ... ining.htmlIt's just like the endless lie that Trump made fun of a reporter's disability. The media knows that if they just keep repeating a lie, people will believe that it must be true.
...You're obviously reflecting an article that appeared on RealCleatPolitics today by a Trump flack/PR person. This article isolates one paragraph. Now, if you isolate one paragraph, it kind of looks that way - I have often thought that the pro-Dixie love statue public display supporters, as much as I disagree with them, are not the same as the swastika-carriers necessarily - But, looking at a larger portion of the nonedited transcript of Trump's press conference on Vox just now, as I did, Trump maybe at leans more towards equating the swastika-carriers with more standard pro-statue people...and tries to distract the discussion by going on and on about sn alleged rampaging " alt-left " that, in the case of Charlittesville, appeared to not be represented at all, IIRC.
ASPart

? Could you please put the relevant few questions of the press conference up, so that we may read the full words?
The writer of that RealClear piece is an admitted Trump PR person. Why did it take her/him so long to do this - what could be called isolating one paragraph out of context?
