A lie travels halfway around the world before the truth puts its pants on.
In a now-deleted tweet, Bremmer falsely claimed that President Trump said “Kim Jong Un is smarter and would make a better President than Sleepy Joe Biden,” during his recent trip to Japan.
@ianbremmer has now admitted that he fabricated this viral Trump quote. And yet it is being shared by journalists and congressmen as if it is real. pic.twitter.com/QgNd9DnN8g
He’s now saying he purposefully made up the quote to prove how easy it to spread fake info on twitter or some such nonsense. Very irresponsible given the size and composition of his audience.

The left will now include this in their asinine arsenal against Trump.
After all, Palin can see Russia from her porch, amirite?
If it wasn’t for lies and distortions, the totalitarians would have NOTHING!
izlamo delenda est …
I’ll bet most of the Left who heard this fake quote still believe it’s true.
Lies have a way of hanging around disguised as truth on the Left.
Must be my dyslexia, I thought the quote said;
“Kim Jong Un said he is smarter and would make a better President than Sleepy Joe Biden,”
I totally bought that !
Fake quote or not, I believe it just might be the truth.
Sorta like the bank robber claiming he wuz only testing the security…
We’ll lie and spread fake news all we want and there isn’t sh’t you can do about it.
2 things that immediately struck me; Why the uncharacteristic candor, his sudden misplaced pangs of guilt at something he routinely indulges in, and the fact that his reach around butt buddies in the media would question him in the first place.
Lies like this are like flies on a dog; pervasive and routine to the point that nobody notices anymore, and certainly not worth going all prim and proper and actually fact check a fellow prevaricator.
If it’s from the media, there’s always a 95% probability it’s a lie. And they all screech about a free press.
Journalist?🤔
So if this guy is a journalist who admitted starting an incendiary lie about the President (although it could be any high ranking public figure) why does he still have an active twitter account? Strikes me that not deleting his account will just encourage others to do the same. Doesn’t Twitter care about it’s reputation? Maybe GAB is a better way.
CNN had a comment about “how easily manipulated the president is” when it should be how easily the liberal press can be manipulated !! Do they check any sources before running with a story ?
Even though the statement is TRUE – Our President never said such a thing.
This country desperately needs a civil war to spill the blood of a lot of democrat whores working in the so-called “journalism” industry.
A perfect “fake news” example for President Trump to use during the upcoming campaign.
Thanks!
ps- I LOVE typing “President Trump”!
TIME TO SECEDE
You can’t live side by side with these evil people trying to tear us down every minute of the day. Let them survive on their own.
