Donald Trump is doubling down on his claim that he was the target of an assassination attempt.
Donald Trump is now looping his baseless conspiracies into his fundraising emails.
On Monday, the presumptive GOP presidential nominee escalated his claims that President Joe Biden authorized the FBI to shoot and kill him during its 2022 raid on Mar-a-Lago, this time promising to punish his two-time opponent for the alleged assassination attempt.
“Biden’s day of reckoning is coming,” the Trump campaign wrote in a fundraising email distributed Monday. “He tried to publicly torture and humiliate me … but he failed. He tried to raid my home and take me out with deadly force … but he failed.”
It would be great if media wasn’t allowed to repeat such obvious lies. Media should be free to say what they want, but there should be consequences. If you spread lies then there should be consequences to it. And it shouldn’t require a hugely expensive court case that’ll get dragged on for at least a decade.
This maybe? (just lightly skimmed though)
