MSNBC's Chris Hayes says a Trump supporter 'rammed a car on the highway driven by a Biden staffer'

As Twitchy just reported, the San Marcos Police Department has looked at the videos and determined it looks like the white SUV driven by a Biden staffer was actually at fault in a fender bender with a black pickup truck driven by a Trump supporter, escorting the Biden-Harris campaign bus out of Texas.

President Trump tweeted Sunday that “these patriots did nothing wrong” by parading behind the Biden bus, and that led Chris Hayes to believe the president is urging more of his supporters to ram cars driven by Biden staffers.

They rammed a car on the highway driven by a Biden staffer. We’re lucky no one got hurt. Trump now urging it on even more. https://t.co/KhekMZhdB3

There was a video from one of the cars in our recent post, and here’s another, slowed down:

In Texas, Trump supporters are following around the Biden bus. A bad tactic because it only draws attention to it.

Of course, the media used it to bash Trump supporters for causing a crash. The video clearly shows a deranged Biden supporter intentionally rammed the truck. pic.twitter.com/e4zN491aah

You are lying. As usual.

It does say MSNBC on his bio

It's more complicated than you portray it. https://t.co/Y5M8ysZXbP

No…it isn't

Blatant lie. No soul. SMH.

No, white car moved from R lane to center lane, following bus. Bus moved back to R lane, directly in front of black truck, that had moved up, once they merged left. White car tried to move back in R lane, but truck was there. They straddled lane, and pushed on truck.

#FakeNews as usual.

Lying as usual.

Police and video show the Biden vehicle at fault.

If you watched the video you know this is a blatant lie.

But you work for MSNBC, so lying is pretty much on brand.https://t.co/yzHzUNaU8c

It was a mostly peaceful ramming. They have insurance.

The only picture I saw, was the car entering the truck’s lane.

That means the car is at fault.

That's obviously not what happened. The video clearly shows a pick-up truck in the right lane and then an SUV moving into the right lane where the pick-up truck already was.

— Mark Cancellieri (@MarkCancellieri) November 2, 2020

This is not what happened. It's pretty much the opposite of what happened.

— Dennis (@spongeworthy2) November 2, 2020

Literally the exact opposite happened

Thanks for the misinformation Karen.

The State Police chimed in here, reviewed the video, said the one doing the ramming was actually the Biden Staffer ramming the Truck. They also said the SUV driver is not returning police requests or phone calls.

Doesn't sound like much of a victim to me.

I can see that the truck was on its proper lane pic.twitter.com/QCQVNpEwSU

Biden staffers have such low IQ they can’t even drive properly. ??‍♀️pic.twitter.com/cSGpK9Wo5U

I would say a retraction is in order…

— Richard Anthony (@Richard02741139) November 2, 2020

Hayes then moved the goalposts a little the following day:

do you think even if this account is more accurate it's good, praiseworthy behavior the president should encourage?

— Chris Hayes (@chrislhayes) November 2, 2020

Woosh go the goalposts

— The Old Right (@theoldrightaz) November 2, 2020

Hayes had a full day to review the video but kept up his original tweet. Is this praiseworthy behavior we should expect of our journalists?
