What is more entertaining than a liberal journalist inserting his foot deeply into his mouth? A liberal journalist inserting his foot deeply into his mouth served up with a whopping helping of sarcasm wo ist mein wasser kostenlosen. That is how Stephen A. Crockett, Jr., of The Root delivered his report on a claim the president made on Monday when he signed the 9/11 Victims Compensation Fund kirchenmusik herunterladen.

The claim,which has also been challenged by MSNBC and Vox, was that Trump was at Ground Zero following the attacks on the World Trade Center filme von zdf mediathek herunterladen. Here is the relevant portion of his statement at the signing ceremony:

In a few moments, I will sign the 9/11 Victims Compensation Fund gta 5 game. This law makes permanent the financial support for families who lost precious loved ones as a result of September 11th attacks. It also provides pensions for those who are suffering from cancer and other illnesses stemming from the toxic debris they were exposed to in the aftermath of the attacks matlab download student. Many of those affected were firefighters, police officers, and other first responders. And I was down there also, but I’m not considering myself a first responder amazon buchvorschau herunterladen. But I was down there. I spent a lot of time down there with you. [Emphasis added]

In Crockett’s reaction to the highlighted claim, he doesn’t just dip a toe into sardonicism herunterladen. He plunges head first into the icy waters, titling his article “President Trump Is a Modern-Day Forrest Gump” and opening with this:

Further down, Crockett switches briefly from snide to “serious.” He quotes Vox’s Aaron Rupar who in turn culled his pronouncement from the Left’s Grand Wizard of Arbiters of Fact, Snopes:

Snopes investigated Trump’s 2016 claim by speaking to officials from the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) and construction demolitions experts who were at Ground Zero in the hours and days after the 9/11 attacks. Nobody could recall even seeing Trump at the site. Snopes also details how Trump has a history of exaggerating the role his company played in the recovery efforts.

But Crockett isn’t finished making an abject fool out of himself. He goes on to write:

Well, Snopes and Rupar are wrong. Not only did the president save 30 people from the rubble, he also drove a fire truck that was trapped to safety. Below is an image of Trump driving the fire truck.

But guess what (as Fox News Channel’s resident liberal Juan Williams is so fond of saying)? Well, don’t guess. Have a look.
