trump lying his ass off at tonights rally


President Donald Trump on Wednesday night again invoked the mass shooting at a synagogue to slam the news media, opening a campaign rally in Florida by telling a vocal crowd that coverage of his visit to Pittsburgh the day before was “fake and make-believe.”

Trump paid a solemn visit to the city on Tuesday in the aftermath of Saturday’s shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue, which left 11 dead. The president said that despite a “small protest,” he and first lady Melania Trump were treated very kindly during their visit but that the media did not accurately reflect how they were received.


“After this day of unity and togetherness, I came home and, sadly, turned on the news and watched as the far-left media once again used tragedy to sow anger and division,” Trump said. “Sadly, they took a small group of protesters [who were] far away from where we were. We could not have been treated better, the first lady and myself.”

“But we’re representing the presidency, and [the media] did everything in their power to try to play it up and push people apart,” he added. “That’s what’s happening. They’re pushing people apart.”

It was meant to be all about me-me-me but as in most things
Trump attempts he failed and his little feelings were hurt.

You mean that 13 minute photo op?

..we're representing the presidency, he says. no you only represent the fans at your rallies, you are not our president.

He calls his supporters fans. He still thinks he's on a tv show.

all he can do is play the victim and think about himself. What a pathetic excuse of a human being! He is an absolute disgrace.
