During Thursday’s press briefing, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt purposely misquoted Democratic lawmakers, claiming they were telling US service members to disregard all of Trump’s commands.
Six Democratic lawmakers made a 90 second video encouraging U.S. service members and members of the intelligence community to refrain from following illegal orders. There’s nothing controversial about that.
Remember, the Supreme Court shielded only Trump’s criminality while in office, but not the rest of the country or the military.
Trump’s response to this video was to call them traitors (That’s something he’s very familiar with) and calling for them them to be executed.
When asked about Piggy Trump’s retort, Leavitt lied.
Q: This morning, President Trump accused six Democratic lawmakers of seditious behavior punishable by death.
Just to be clear, does the president want to execute members of Congress?
LEAVITT: No.
In Trump’s TS post, Piggy unequivocally wanted them to be hanged
So, I beg to differ, Karoline. Trump would celebrate their executions and sell tickets to his pay-per-view event ” The Trump Coliseum Hanging Party.”
Leavitt then continued to gaslight….
