ATTENTION AMERICA:
ThinkProgresses’ Judd Legum has either has his head perpetually up his backside or he’s deliberately lying about Trump and his comments around ‘murdering infants’. THIS should be headline news for weeks but truth be told, no one really cares about Judd except … well, Judd.
And us, but we only care because we can make fun of him.
Take a look.
ATTENTION AMERICA:
This is a clip from last night of Donald Trump slandering women and doctors. He is accusing them of conspiring to murder infants wrapped in blankets.
This should be headline news for weeks.
Instead it will likely be forgotten by tomorrow pic.twitter.com/lCnv59BaZz

The Left is working day and night to find some way, ANY way, to beat Trump in 2020 and they’re desperate now because they know the Russian collusion nonsense is going nowhere. Granted, their base is probably willingly ignorant about where these comments actually came from or they totally missed them, which is what Judd and others like him are hoping for.

Of course, sign up for his newsletter. If we rolled our eyes any further back into our heads they’d likely get stuck there.
Here is how national outlets covered this speech. The lies are ignored. https://t.co/uxdn03eDXj

Because you know, the media is TOTALLY behind Trump.
IT WAS NOT AN "INACCURATE REFRAIN"
IT WAS A BOLD-FACED LIEhttps://t.co/a1NqmycsGM

Actually, it wasn’t a ‘bold-faced lie’, it was a quote from Governor Ralph Northam. Yes, Trump made it a tad more melodramatic with the whole ‘executing’ thing but he’s not lying about the intent of the Democratic legislation that would allow a mother to abort an unborn baby up to and even during birth. This specific reference was made about infants who survive a botched abortion, and Northam said, “The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.’
How long before this claim that women and doctors choose to murder infants becomes a Facebook ad and Facebook does nothing to stop it

*sigh*
So Judd thinks the media and Facebook are helping Trump … this is painfully dumb.
You are an ignorant liar. As a woman I'm outraged by you trying to justify murdering a living, helpless child. IT'S WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How a purveyor of misinformation like Judd can amass 300k plus followers is a true result of our failed education system, which leaves mental illness and a lack of critical thinking in its wake.

Well, clearly, it’s because the media backs Trump.
Their bubble gets bigger all the time.

HEH!
The thread is amazingly stupid. It’s a whole group of people who never heard of the VA bill or Northam.

Or people who are willing to ignore what Northam said.
Attack the message and messenger the last desperate act of the guilty. What that governor said was so despicable that it was better to have the racist photos of him talked about just to change the subject.
