The White House has just released a list of 78 terrorist attacks that Donald Trump says the media conspired not to cover.
Trump made the bizarre claim earlier today during an address U.S. Central Command in Tampa, Florida.
Trump first mentioned the recent attacks in France, then went off on this odd tangent:
“You’ve seen what happened in Paris and Nice, all over Europe it’s happening. It’s gotten to a point where it’s not even being reported. And in many cases, the very, very dishonest press doesn’t want to report it. They have their reasons, and you understand that.”
As you can imagine, Trump’s comments left a lot of people scratching their heads as to just which terrorist attacks the media had covered up. Also still unanswered, what is the secret “reason” the press has for covering up these attacks — Trump seems to know it, he thinks the US military knows it, perhaps they’ll share it with the rest of us.
In response to growing criticisms of Trump’s clearly false claim, the White House just released a list of 78 terror attacks that the media conspired to hide from the American public. They include:
- The attack at the Bataclan dance club and other venues in Paris, that killed 130 people and injured 368.
- The horrific Bastille Day truck attack in Nice, France that killed 86 people and injured 434.
- The three coordinated suicide bombings in Brussels, Belgium, that killed 32 and injured 300.
- And the San Bernardino attack, where 14 were killed and 22 were injured.
CNN’s Jim Acosta has more:
I did a quick Google search for each attack, and found the following results:
None of those attacks were under-reported by the media. I stayed up all night watching the Nice coverage, and we spent days watching the response to the Paris attacks on every media outlet (remember all the coverage of the beautiful flower memorials everyone left behind, including the adorable young French boy who asked his dad if the bad men were going to kill his family too?). Each attack got wall-to-wall coverage because they’re newsworthy. There is no way any media outlet would skip a news story that big.
Which again raises the question of what is wrong with Donald Trump? Only into the 3rd week of his presidency, he seems even crazier than he was during the campaign. It was bad enough that yesterday he called the US military a bunch of “killers,” but now he’s claiming that Paris, Nice, Brussels and San Bernardino weren’t covered by the media? When all of us watched the coverage live for days.
Trump is not well. And he control our nuclear weapons, among other things.
Trump’s unfitness for office is beginning to become a serious crisis.
