Truly Orwellian Trump

Jonathan Weisman ‏@jonathanweisman
This is truly Orwellian. Truth is what he says it is.

What Trump is saying here is quite literally the exact opposite of what actually happened. Here's the video: https://twitter.com/braddjaffy/status/794625305151438849


(...btw, Katy Tur gave the lowdown on Trump's complaint about the cameras. There's ONE stationary pool-feed camera which records what he says at the podium. The rest of the cameras from the several news orgs. which attend his events are pointing everywhere in the crowd. It also doesn't help that he restricts the cameras to pens far from the stage and isolated from his crowds. Trump knows this and is being amazingly dishonest.)
