Fact checks challenge Trump's 'clinical-grade' claim on 60 Minutes

capitolhunters50

If CBS can chop up an interview and air sentences out of order to make a favored interviewee seem more coherent ... can they do the same to make a dis-favored interviewee seem less coherent? It's going awfully far down the road to pure propaganda here.

maraleia36

Also, they violated their own settlement deal with Donald. Fuck them forever.

SkiSkinnySkis29

According to Trump and Bari, isn't this grounds for a massive lawsuit against CBS?

ginya1.bsky.social20

Bari edited interview & *didn‘t* take out “I’m not a rapist, I’m not a pedophile” & “You think he was referring to you?” Those are the headlines of that interview. They are Trump’s “I’m not a crook” moment but worse. That‘s what will be remembered. She is really bad at sycophanting.

Cancel & Gretel19

I’m beginning to think she isn’t operating in good faith

Deborah14

Can we sue them for editing him? Some kind of class action suit?

Grumpy Rootbeer13

Trump is currently suing the BBC for editing him!

lifeinthedesert.bsky.social10

The media in general have been providing a free editing services for Trump in video and print since his political career began. They clean it up for him because they think this is their job. He should have been quoted, in full and verbatim, from the beginning. Weiss is just more egregious not new.

shafm.bsky.social6

The BBC would like a word too.

Wine Bunny5

Nothing is ever on the level with the right. Nothing. Why do liberals keep being shocked by their contradictions and hypocrisy?

The Metaphysicalist4

I recall lawsuits were filed and media capitulations about editing. Perhaps it was all a dream. That's me in the corner, losing my mind.

So, they unweaved the weave?

waa21124

That does it! I am suing Bari Weiss and CBS for 10 Kajillion billion dollars for this slanted editing done to make tRump look good! Hey MAGAts, am I doing this correctly?

David3

He’s a thin skinned rapey pedophile soulless Nazi ghoul Fuck him! And fuck CBS!🤬

John2

Really is all bullshite, anyway. So why edit it ?

ubejane.bsky.social2

This was the standard procedure on the Apprentice reality show, per a long ago New Yorker article that questioned why the producers did not disclose this when they foisted this "dangerous violent madman who should be confined away from weapons and power" on us as presidential material in 2016.

BonFire2

TO BE FAIR-that idiot rambles incessantly and the incoherence would have been like watching one of his rally speeches. Not to mention they'd have to cut everything else to make room for his 40mins of crazy.

nodietofworms.bsky.social2

Swiss cheese for a brain. What is left that is "coherent" is the hate he has for everyone but mostly women.

Dogs10Gods017

Meanwhile, yes, he is in fact, a rapist. 🚮

his infernal disciple14

He was also the one who brought up Epstein. Interesting how he feels that's relevant to mention after making those declarations.

Holding Onto Hope11

“Grab ‘em by the pussy…”. I cannot believe he won after that video came out. That’s when I lost so many friends and neighbors.

David Dickinson7

It’s too bad her response wasn’t “Well then why doesn’t your DOJ release the unredacted Epstein files, as required by law, and prove it? Clearly no one, including this shooter, believes you.”

Just Another Resister4

What you mean the shooter was posing on IG with an IDF shirt but removed the post the night before? What you mean people in Israel were searching his name 12hrs before the incident? bsky.app/profile/rudy...

Russ or something like it 🏳️‍🌈2

She presented information that he is offended by. He knows exactly who it is about, his response was an admission as much as it was a denial. Being a woman interviewer his natural response is to degrade her because women are not people to him.

meta30

Yeah, why are they helping him to get back up if they've asked him to crawl on the floor?

If "they" told him to get down, why tf are they picking him back up? 🤦

He so fell! His feet/legs were probably asleep! I watched that so many times!

Julia Dilliard💙🐴🇺🇦#Resist. DM's are blocked.2

Yep, he fell. Geezus, he lies about EVERYTHING. 😡

Blanche Neige, Esq.2

Not only did Trump clearly fall, but the Secret Service agents immediately helped up him to stand up again and walk, not crawl, out. Do I have to quote Orwell AGAIN?

G³ Dover Boys2

I don't know, but is it protocol for military-garbed security, complete with flak jackets, helmets with a bunch of gadgets stuck on them, and assault weapons, to be within 5 seconds of the president at a dinner? All this feels really staged, a fake "attack."

Momo2

He lies about the stupidest 💩

It would be nice if PBS told us which ones were "unfounded" and also how they know.

And make mention about how corporate consolidation of media has also reduced the public trust in news media for years. None of this should be surprising.

You don't need a conspiracy to run incompetent or insuffient security to allow the sea of nut jobs surrounding the palace to penetrate the first line of defense. That's policy. Some wacko is always available to be used.

hokusai 🌊🌊🌊31

innocent people being called a "PEDOPHILE" don't react the way TRUMP did he's guilty and he knows it... we need to KEEP the pressure up on #EPSTEIN no matter how hard he tries to distract us from the files BELIEVE THE SURVIVORS

havana62.bsky.social24

She reads the manifesto which doesn't mention his name and his immediate reaction is to think it's about him? His guilt permeates the room.

Richard Bellikoff18

She should have ended the interview at that point and walked off the set and told him she wasn't going to put up with his abuse. Let Bari Weiss put that on the air.

leafer1.bsky.social18

I am not a rapist or a pedophile is something I have never had to say. Just saying🇨🇦

Eboneezer Goode - FDT - Trump Broke America.11

Who cares what that rapist and pedophile thinks?

CaGirl059

He hates the media unless they’re saying how great he is. No righteous reporter/journalist should attend that dinner IF Trump has it w/in 30 days as Trump just wants to chastise, berate and tell them how awful they are. To attend says that they’re masochistic.

Dr. Penguin8

Funny how she read that line about pedos and rapists, and right away he says he isn't those things. But uh E. Jean Carroll and others would say otherwise.

Go Deep, I'll Look for You8

Who cares what Trump lashes out at? He will lash out at ANYTHING. Let’s put this baby to bed.

Trump is a one trick pony. He goes to bullying immediately. He’s a pathetic POS.

Mama V7

Good for her. She totally owned him.

Jay W6

*Trump gets mad because TV lady repeats accurate claim that Dumb Donny was Epstein's bestest friend... while he was abusing underage girls

gbama115

Hit dog's gonna holler. Loved her response, "Do you think he was referring to you?"

Michele G5

Typical narcissistic and misogynistic behavior.

Keeping The Fé4

Why did he assume the manifesto was referring to him? Oh, wait…… #RapisT #PedoPrez #EpsteinFiles

R.T. Saunders4

There never was a "detente" with Trump. What you had was a lot of people in fancy evening wear shaking in their high heels suddenly forgetting all of Trump's atrocities when someone a floor away tries to outrun the Secret Service. They weren't first graders sitting in a classroom in Sandy Hook.

the manifesto clearly ruined their strategy and now they’re panicking.

She made the president of the United states say “I am not a pedophile” on TV! It’s our Richard Nixon moment!

peterbennett70.bsky.social3

Did she misquote the gunman? A perfectly normal procedure to quote what he wrote. A guilty individual would react the way Donald did!

Because the event was staged! Secret Service knew he was there, and they let him get from his room in the hotel to the floor with the metal detectors!

cora (⌒▽⌒)☆20

When do we start telling him “You are a disgrace.”

mrskay104.bsky.social16

Because of his low IQ, lack of basic intelligence and vocabulary, he is limited to that one pathetic phrase. He has proven himself to be a waste of a human with no redeeming qualities.

Another Bob 🇺🇸🫶🇨🇦🫶🇲🇽🫶🇺🇦14

It’s hard for me to imagine the national media putting up with such abuse from any Democrat, collectively or individually. Whereas, their standards for Republicans are so low as to be basically nonexistent.

🇨🇦 Ann Cda 🇨🇦 🇮🇹🏒13

She was only reporting on what the shooter's manifesto said. He sure got extremely defensive there for someone who claims to have been "totally exonerated". He's like a child arguing with his mom that he didn't eat the ice cream while having chocolate ice cream all over his face.

PIPER & NOX'S MOM7

When they hit him with something he is guilty of he starts the name calling. Weak,despicable, creature.

havana62.bsky.social5

His name was never mentioned in the letter, why would he assume that it is about him? Only someone who is so guilty would be so defensive. #guilty

If he were a smartman he would've retired when theEpstein files first surfaced, he failed to do so then, and fails to do so now, how could he bring himself through such truthful accusations or questions, the sneers must be discomforting

Sounds like he was close to looking around and yelling to anyone within earshot: "Can I speak to the manager?!? I was told this the new and improved, MAGA improved CBS! It is not!" "Let me speak to Andy Rooney! He gets me!"

Tbone3

Trump is the definition of disgrace.

noirwest3

It's too bad for him that there isn't an olympic event for projecting. Then again he'd be fine with a shiny gold plated tin crown and a ribbon with his name on it.

Why do they put up with this behaviour Just stop the interview

CatLadyMama3

Why don't they ever stand up to him?!

Nick25 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇺🇦3

That is unacceptable behaviour from a president. He is just using the power of his position to get away with things that would not otherwise be accepted, aka bullying.

Horrible, horrible excuse for a human. A husk. And it's calling her a disgrace? Please. 🙄🤣

What's the ultimate disgrace is having a pedophile and rapist for a president. He can insult anyone he wants to but he carries the stench of pedophilia and cruelty with him everywhere he goes. It might as well be tattooed on his forehead.

Everybody knows who the disgrace is!!

This is why I say it would have been far better had he been able to give that WHCD speech he claimed was going to "let it rip" against the press. It would have only made him look pettier, crueler and even more childish.

She is, because she makes millions of dollars pretending to serve the People through the 4th Estate. She could have showed the world the disgrace he is, but then the story would conclude. Go back and look at some past WHCDs. She thrills to power so much she is visibly "stimulated" by being there.

And that right there is why Trump had his Epstein-friendly billionaire friends take over CBS and destroy 60 Minutes. Holding powerful criminals accountable has consequences. Still worth doing, though.

Of course he did. As always. Norah O’Donnell is an experienced veteran journalist with a stellar reputation.

Except he is an adjudicated rapist.... who hasn't been brought to trial for pedophilia or treason yet.
