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 wouldnt show them, because theyre fake news.

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.
