CLAIM
Media Misrepresents and Exaggerates President Trump’s Calls for Democrat Accountability
CATEGORY
Misrepresentation, Omission of context
THE OFFENSE
The media misrepresented President Trump’s call for Members of Congress to be held accountable for inciting sedition by saying that he called for their “execution.”
THE TRUTH
The Democrats and Fake News Media subversively implied that President Trump had issued illegal orders to service members. Every order President Trump has issued has been lawful. It is dangerous for sitting Members of Congress to incite insubordination in the United States’ military, and President Trump called for them to be held accountable.
KEY POINTS
• Democrats released a video calling for service members to disobey their chain of command, and in turn, implied President Trump had issued illegal orders.
• President Trump has never issued an illegal order. The Fake News knew that, but ran with the story anyway.SOURCES
• Video of Democrat Officials Calling for Sedition
• Trump accuses Democrats who urged military to resist illegal orders of ‘seditious behavior,’ suggests execution
• Trump calls for arrest of ‘seditious’ Democrats who told troops their duty is to uphold the Constitution
• Mike Johnson defends Trump’s ‘sedition’ attacks on Democrats
• Stephen Miller: “It is insurrection—plainly, directly, without question… It’s a general call for rebellion from the CIA and the armed services of the United States, by Democrat lawmakers”
• Slotkin tries to defend her sick plot to turn service members against the Commander-in-Chief
• CBS News Post
