Pollak: CNN’s Chris Cuomo Uses Deceptive Edit to Boost Charlottesville Hoax

CNN’s Chris Cuomo used a deceptive edit on Monday evening to make it appear that President Donald Trump was referring to neo-Nazis as “very fine people” in a press conference on the Charlottesville, Virginia, riots in 2017.
Cuomo was taking on the president for his complaint that director Spike Lee had performed a “racist hit” on Trump at the Oscars. To dispute the president’s claim, Cuomo accused the president of hypocrisy, invoking Charlottesville (video above):


CUOMO: Listen, I doubt the president has seen BlackKklansman …

[Footage rolls on split-screen of neo-Nazis and white supremacists carrying torches in Charlottesville. Caption: “You will not replace us! Jews will not replace us! Jews will not replace us!”]

CUOMO: … but it ends with ugly scenes from the ugliness Charlottesville — tiki torches, Nazi torches, you know, the truth. That was clear to everyone, except two groups: white haters, and this president.

[Jump to clip of Trump at press conference on Charlottesville, August 2017]

TRUMP: And you had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides.

Cuomo added, referring to Trump’s Charlottesville comments: “I’d like to believe that the President of the United States just had an off moment, or said it wrong, he doesn’t mean it. But the facts slap that fiction in the face.”

On the contrary: the facts show that Cuomo was lying to his audience, using a deceptive edit of Trump’s comments.

When the president used the phrase “very fine people,” he was referring to protesters who were not neo-Nazis, but who had simply come to Charlottesville to protest the removal of a statue honoring the Confederate general Robert E. Lee. The fact that such protesters were there was confirmed by the New York Times, which reported afterwards:

”Good people can go to Charlottesville,” said Michelle Piercy, a night shift worker at a Wichita, Kan., retirement home, who drove all night with a conservative group that opposed the planned removal of a statue of the Confederate general Robert E. Lee.

After listening to Mr. Trump on Tuesday, she said it was as if he had channeled her and her friends — all gun-loving defenders of free speech, she said, who had no interest in standing with Nazis or white supremacists: ”It’s almost like he talked to one of our people.”

The transcript of the press conference makes clear that Trump was referring to those protesters — and to non-violent protesters on the left, who came to protest the statues and the right-wing extremists — in his reference to “very fine people.”

Trump also condemned the neo-Nazis several times during his press conference — a fact that Cuomo neglected to mention.

Here is one relevant exchange, from the transcript (via Politico, hardly a pro-Trump outlet — original emphasis):

TRUMP: Those people – all of those people, excuse me – I’ve condemned neo-Nazis. I’ve condemned many different groups, but not all of those people were neo-Nazis, believe me. Not all of those people were white supremacists by any stretch.

condemned the neo-Nazi who murdered Heather Heyer, calling it an act of “terrorism.” He added: “The driver of the car is a murderer, and what he did was a horrible, horrible, inexcusable thing.”

Trump may have had some of the particular details of the protests wrong — which groups were marching Friday versus Saturday, for example — but it is clear that he condemned the neo-Nazis and the violent Antifa activists, while noting that there were ordinary demonstrators — pro-statue, anti-statue, and anti-racist — there as well.


That is the only reasonable interpretation of the president’s use of the phrase “very fine people.”

Moreover, Trump’s daughter is Jewish, his son-in-law is Jewish, and his grandchildren are Jewish, and he has been a staunch supporter of the State of Israel, even moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem. His envoys to the Middle East, including the U.S. ambassador to Israel, are not just Jewish, but are also religiously observant Jews.

To play a clip of the neo-Nazi, white supremacist torch procession and then a clip of Trump referring to “very fine people” as if the latter referred to the former creates an impression in the viewer that he or she has actually seen something that never actually happened, and was the opposite of what happened. It is the essence of fake news.

Even if Cuomo and CNN have a legitimate belief that Trump was referring to neo-Nazis — though it is unclear how they could, given the weight of the evidence — they ought to acknowledge that there is a dispute about the facts.

The fact that Cuomo and other anchors at CNN continue to push a disputed, and arguably debunked, story about Charlottesville suggests a political motive: to damage Trump, and to embarrass his supporters by association.

There are real victims of racism, antisemitism, and other forms of bigotry in the United States, and real fears of future attacks, verbal and violent.

To tell the public that the president empathizes with violent extremists creates unnecessary distress and division.


It is bad enough for a politician to do so: for a news anchor, it is inexcusable.

That is some bullshit right there. His comments were about the weekend and not singling out the night or the day. Not really unfair to show the vigil as part of what happened. It was integral and he did not single that part out when he made the comment.
 
Economist Thomas Sowell: ‘No Hard Evidence’ That Trump Is Racist

Conservative economist and author Thomas Sowell weighed in Thursday on “Fox & Friends” on Democrats’ continuous accusations that President Donald Trump is “racist.”


Sowell said he has “seen no hard evidence” of racism from the president.


“I’ve seen no hard evidence,” he stated. “And, unfortunately, we’re living in a time where no one expects hard evidence. You just repeat some familiar words and people will react pretty much the way Pavlov’s dog was conditioned to react to certain sounds.”

Breitbart TV







Sowell then commented on the rise of socialism, saying people must “no longer look at facts.”

“This great fervor for Bernie Sanders was occurring at the time when Venezuela, with one of the world’s largest reserves of oil, people were going downhill in their living standards and were hungry and desperately fleeing to neighboring countries,” he advised. “Most of the people who are out there cheering Bernie Sanders haven’t even bothered to look into that.”

Did everybody read Bob Kerrey's challenge to Trump about his bone spurs? Trump is a perfect guy for people like Ricky and Iz and Multi to like.
Uses his rich daddy to pull strings and fabricate a medical reason to avoid the draft.

Of all the inexplicable excusing of Don the Con by his emotionally stunted worshippers on this site, the on that never fails to shock me is how you alleged lovers of America and "liberty" grovel for a conman who lauds authoritarian murderers like Kim and Putin and viciously attacks actual American Republican heroes and vets like McCain and Mueller.

Nothing more clearly proves your complete and utter dishonesty about Don the Con than that.

You are, absolutely, deplorable.
