As Twitchy told you, Michelle Obama’s stunningly brave speech last night didn’t include any mention of Joe Biden’s VP pick Kamala Harris. Obama aides reportedly said the reason for that was that Michelle Obama’s message was taped before Biden made the announcement.
But the Daily Beast’s Sam Stein isn’t satisfied with that explanation. Because if he were, he wouldn’t be able to accuse Donald Trump of lying:
Trump says Michelle Obama’s speech was “divisive” and shouldn’t have gotten “fawning” reviews because it was taped (he alleges)

“He alleges.” Is it just an allegation if it’s true?
It was taped. https://t.co/J5R4rK4K3Q

It was taped pre-VP announcement, according to @jaketapper.

It was taped before the VP selection, MSNBC reported last night. That's why Kamala wasn't mentioned.

Are you denying it was taped?

Why do you hate the truth, Sam?
Are you Petty Trolling? Deny an insignificant fact to get people to prove it to you so you can say "why does this matter?"

If Sam can get people to focus on Trump alleging something that multiple reports have confirmed to be true in order to prove that Trump is a liar, then he’s done his job.
