Over the weekend, the liberal media went hog-wild with a grossly out-of-context soundbite of former President Trump claiming that he was going to bring a “bloodbath” to America if he wasn’t reelected. ABC’s The View kept the falsehood going Monday morning by airing a deceptively edited clip of Trump and repeatedly insisting that he was completely in context. Only one of them dared to get close to the truth and even then, they only played footsie with it.
Ahead of their defense of the media’s lies about the clip, The View aired a deceptively edited video of Trump’s speech stripping out all references to China undercutting American manufacturing:
In some cases, they're not people in my opinion. [Transition] These are bad -- these are animals. [Transition] We're going to put a 100 percent tariff on every single car that comes across the line, and you're not going to be able to sell those cars. If I get elected. Now if I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole -- that's going to be the least of it. It's going to be a bloodbath for the country. That will be the least of it, but they're not going to sell those cars.
“So, he says his bloodbath comment was referring to the auto industry. Now, I don't know if that's how y'all heard it, but that's not how it sounded to me,” moderator Whoopi Goldberg scoffed.
Faux conservative Alyssa Farah Griffin wasn’t concerned with the fact that the media companies she sold her soul to (ABC and CNN) were lying to the American people about the context of the context. Instead, she was more concerned with Republicans pouncing:
I do think it matters. So, I know how Republican voters think, and the average person doesn't probably consume media -- political media especially as much as we do, and my worry is this. The bloodbath comment over the weekend was wall-to-wall coverage, and a lot of Republicans are going to see the headline and then see what he said and say, “Oh, wait. He's talking about autoworkers,” but what they don't hear is the other part that we played there. January 6th hostages, playing an alternative national anthem. That is so un-American.
