FOX NEWS SHREDS TRUMP OVER FALSE CLAIMS ABOUT BORDER WALL . . .  'THERE'S NO NEW WALL!

S E E D E D   C O N T E N T



512

Fox News anchor Shepard Smith on Wednesday called out Donald Trump's false claims about the southern U.S.-Mexico border wall and Puerto Rico after the president lashed out at the network.

Smith took aim at Trump's latest claims about the border wall. Earlier today, the president tweeted a video of the southwest border and claimed that the border wall he promised his supporters during the 2016 presidential election is "going up very fast despite total Obstruction by Democrats in Congress, and elsewhere!"

In response, Smith debunked the president's claims and clarified that "there's no new wall."

"Existing barriers have been replaced. Same span. The total of repaired barrier is about 60 miles along that 2,000 mile border," the host said. "The president also said in the tweet that the wall is going up rapidly. It is not. As we just reported, there's no new wall. Only replacement for walls which were in need of repair or upgrade. Those are the facts."

But those are only the true facts-- they are not the "alternative facts" that members of Trump's mentally-challenged base love so much!

Thus why Trump stated Fox is no longer working for "us".

As he admitted as much, and how is it that an alleged "News" organization, "Works" for a corrupted LIE filled GOP Administration ???

Doesn't any see a problem with this ?

It's called PROPAGANDA ! 

It's used to manipulate minds who can't think for themselves, and it's sad.

If one takes down a crappy falling down fence, and puts up a nice sturdy fence in it's place, in the construction world, that's called "Putting up a new fence" !

"Existing barriers have been replaced. Same span. The total of repaired barrier is about 60 miles along that 2,000 mile border,"

That's disingenuously misleading. You could literally walk through or hop over the old fence, no special tools required. What it is being replaced with is completely new, entirely different, and actually effective at stopping people and cars. Simply calling it "replacement" makes it sound like the same type and quality of barrier is being installed and that is not true. What is being installed is new.

What you had before was this:

merlin_150084237_a201225d-6724-48de-b88c

That's a joke. The only thing it has in common with what Trump is installing is that they're both man-made objects located at the border.

The new wall is entirely different.

Well that post of yours is a blatant LIE!

You just posted a picture with what is allegedly a link to the picture.

But the instagram link you posted (which you implied goes to the picture you posted)  goes to a completed wall-- not those poles in the ground.

You were trying to con us to believe that the picture you posted was the "before".

But guess what?

That picture (a few poles in ground) is not the "before"-- it's current! No wall has been built there!

________________________________________________________________________________________

Here's the picture (no wall) you posted-- its not a "before"-- in fact its dated August 29. 2019!

Its from today's news-- there's no completed wall there. Description of photo:

The border between the United States and Mexico is marked by poles in the Tohono O'odham nation in Arizona. US President Donald Trump suggested seizing land that is not owned by the government to complete the border wall. 

Don't believe me? here's the LINK!!!!

SHAME ON YOU!

Looks to me that you DO have a problem.

I'll take the word of the Tohono O'odham and the data in the most recent interactive maps.

The ballaster fencing stops 3+ miles east of Lukeville, AZ and doesn't start again until Sasaba, AZ, about 2 miles outside of the reservation. NONE of it is on the reservation.

And now-- "Dear Leader" (AKA "Great Leader of our Party and of our Nation") Punches Back against The Imperialistic Fox News and their Dirty Capitalist Running Dogs!!!!

Trump's Mental Confusion Increases-- Now He's Starting To Attack Fox News!!!

His tweets made explicit Trump's long-held belief that Fox belongs to him and his supporters.

Yep, the other day I was on fox news and the right wing trolls were already screaming that fox news is a "liberal" news agency. 

Never fails, trump spits out a few idiotic sentence fragments and the trump trolls run to the message boards to bleat their messiah's idiocy as if it was literally the word of "God". Sometimes, all you can do is laugh at them.

So let's say there is what, 60 miles of new fence, wall, whatthefuckever you want to call it. Bush put in over 400 miles of fencing...of the 2200 mile border. 

Wait until trump finds out he is second fiddle to arguable one of the worst presidents in history.
