"Didn't you see what they refused to show?" . . . Please come CAPTION Donald Trump!!!



Donald ("What's wrong with your eyes, anyway?" )Trump is saying: “There were people in that rally — and I looked the night before. I saw them clearly on t.v. . . . If you look, there were people protesting very quietly the taking down of the statue of Robert E. Lee. . . . But the cameras wouldn’t show them, because they’re fake news.”

so I embellished what he actually said. But this is pretty close. Here's the actual quote:

“There were people in that rally — and I looked the night before. If you look, there were people protesting very quietly the taking down of the statue of Robert E. Lee.”

I exaggerated the fact that he couldn't have seen peaceful marchers the night before because, although there were a few women (and no children), all I saw were carrying torches and chanting their verbal spew.

(Usually CAPTIONs are much more free-form, but I thought this point worth noting. It ranks with the invisible Muslims he saw on 9/11 dancing in the streets of Jersey City.

rolling and eating this booger, five more good alt-righters will be required to clean up the mess they've left in their mothers' basements or they'll be made to cut the crust off of their own peanut butter and jelly sandwiches."
