ELECTION DISINFORMATION: Rex Chapman strikes again, this time with an out-of-context clip of Lindsey Graham

Ex-NBA player and current Twitter influencer Rex Chapman is at it again, this time tweeting an out-of-context clip of Lindsey Graham talking to a woman about Amy Coney Barrett to make it sound like the South Carolina Senator was telling the woman that there only a place for her in America if she’s pro-life:

Lindsey Graham tells young women that, “There’s a place for you in America — if you are pro-life — if you embrace your religion and you follow traditional family structure".

As it’s been pointed out to the notorious hack, Graham wasn’t saying this at all:

People are willfully misinterpreting this comment. He’s pushing back on the criticism of Amy Coney Barrett, and is seeking to reassure women who share her worldview that there’s a place for them in society. https://t.co/vIWcItZ1zc

But he doesn’t care:

Nope.

This is called election disinformation. Where’s that little Twitter label when you need it?

The amazing thing about Chapman is he not only misleads his audience but then laughs it off when he gets called on it. I've seen him do this at least half a dozen times, even regarding videos that were clearly edited.

Truly one of the most dishonest accounts on Twitter. https://t.co/sF8vBiLeDc

Even people who don’t like Graham are calling out Champman:

Not at all surprisingly, everybody seems to be willfully misunderstanding what Graham is VERY clearly saying here. He is NOT saying that there is only a place in America for pro-life women, but that they, too, have a place. It's self-evident if you actually listen to the clip. https://t.co/442CDMBMCG
