LIAR: Trump backs off false Iran video claim

[spanone]

'trump admitted his error' fucking LIAR

Washington (CNN)Donald Trump backed off a false claim Friday morning, admitting he had not seen a video of a $400 million payment being unloaded from a US plane in Iran.

The Republican nominee had claimed at rallies twice this week that such a video existed, saying in Maine on Thursday that it was provided by Iranians "to embarrass our president because we have a president who's incompetent."

What Trump had actually seen in news reports was video of three American prisoners who Iran had released arriving in Geneva, Switzerland.

Trump admitted his error in an early-morning tweet Friday, without actually saying he was wrong.

1. I don't know if he's actually admitting he's wrong, or just trying to gaslight us.

The former isn't very much in his character. The latter absolutely is.

2. In Donald's defense, it's really hard for him to pay attention to any stories not about himself.

3. Bluster and braggadocio, puerile. Liar. Petty, small-minded blowhard.

Asswipe.

4. Like Fiorina, claims he saw things demonstrably not in the video

Will anyone call him out on it? Likely not.

5. Mr. Jetset should know full well that you can't load pallets onto that kind of plane

Let alone enough pallets for $400 million
