It is complete bullshit. The family already came out and said it was. The article says the other guy they spoke to who was in the room "didn't hear it" as if he missed it somehow, but that guy came out and said they twisted his words, and trump said nothing like that at all, he didn't miss anything.

It's the same with Mark Kelly. Lots of his co-workers and those employed under him are coming out of the woodwork and claiming Mark Kelly is a big liar with a Napoleon complex, and he is. I hope they throw him in prison and he rots.

Wear those down votes with pride. The more I see how the news is twisted and willingly echoed here without providing context or followup, the more I can see how dumb most of those I used to side with are.

The big question is is it choosing to ignore the facts or is it misleading news sources that is causing such a severe disconnect from reality?

A little of a and b, I suppose, depending on the person.
