Fox News Fact Checks Trump’s ‘Big Lie’ Live During His 9\/11 Photo-Op"},"content":{"rendered":"

On the 20th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, Donald Trump “honored”<\/em> the occasion<\/a><\/strong> by appearing as the featured commentator for an exhibition fight between a couple of geezers at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. He also released a video that barely mentioned 9\/11, but instead insulted both America and President Biden<\/a><\/strong> as foolish and inept.<\/p>\n

\"Donald<\/p>\n

However, that didn’t satisfy Trump’s obsession with attacking Biden and glorifying himself. He spent a few minutes at a New York police station with a carefully selected group of bootlickers. While there, Trump complained that Biden had visited the three sites where planes crashed on 9\/11 but didn’t speak. Perhaps because Biden preferred to make the day about paying tribute to the victims and the heroes, rather than deflecting attention to himself.<\/p>\n

Trump, on the other hand, visited none of those sites. And when he spoke it had little to do with 9\/11. He spent most of his chat with the NYPD exalting himself and maligning Biden. At the end he slipped in a “thank you”<\/em> for their efforts on 9\/11. But he spent far more time criticizing Biden on the exit from Afghanistan, which Trump failed to accomplish in four years, and the “rigged”<\/em> election that he is still – nine months later – lying about it to anyone who will listen.<\/p>\n

What made this episode of Trump’s whining notable, was that coverage of his remarks on Fox News were abruptly cut off by anchor Arthel Neville. As Trump launched into his “Big Lie”<\/em> rant he was fact checked live. Neville broke in to say that…<\/p>\n

“[Trump] did not miss any opportunities to air grievances including claiming that the election was rigged, which it was not. It has been proven in court multiple times.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
