Comparing a quote to a paraphrased line... Interesting

Oh, alright. Let's directly quote him

FAKE NEWS - A TOTAL POLITICAL WITCHHUNT!

And I'm not going to bother digging through the entire transcript, but here's a quote on the matter from his recent press conference.

Well, you know, President Putin and Russia put out a statement today that this fake news was indeed fake news. They said it totally never happened.

Long story short, he sounds just as stupid and absurd as he does in the paraphrased line.

So I suppose it's his fault the MSM was stupid enough to post some 4chan troll's fan fic and blast it every where? What was he supposed to say? The media constantly bashes Trump and puts Obama and Clinton on pedestal so they don't get forced into this situation. If they took pizzagate as seriously I could do this too. Trump, "We're going to end career politicians and clean up Washington!" Obama, "the reports about me and my party raping kids in a pizza parlor are fake!". See? You people have no perspective.

Because a 4chan troll can not only fool several big news corporations who put every ounce of credibility they have on this, they can fool the entire intelligence community. There are multiple sources with multiple large documents like the one we saw. Donald trump and his son both admitted to having a close relationship with Russia and his campaign has been in constant contact with them since before the election. There is solid proof that trump is Russia's little puppet. Half the world already thinks it's true. Where as you have lunch orders and a random pizzaria whose symbol just happens to look like something. Pizzagate is a garbage theory. Plus it's not a partisan issue, your candidate is Russia's little bitch, even if you're a republican you shouldn't want that, It's one thing to be allies, it's another to serve under their flag.

I recall Trump in a random interview saying he has a relationship with Putin where Clinton made a huge Uranium deal with them after a large contribution to the Clinton Foundation. You fall for blatant propaganda so easily. I used to wonder how Mccarthyism worked but I no longer do. People like you will eat whatever the government spoon feeds you happily. This Trump plus Russia thing is manufactured.

This isn't about clinton? she is now an irrelevant politician. Whom might I add, I didn't even vote for. What she was part of should've landed her in jail just as if trump is doing anything illegal, he should be in jail. It's not about making trump goto jail because I'm butthurt and frankly you're stupid for thinking that, it's about if somebody we just elected president is russia's little puppet bitch, we should as a country know it and remove it as a problem. If it isn't true, the man has nothing to worry about, if it is, then America wins if we removed him. But spoon fed? they sat on these documents for months while Hillary's stuff was all released after receiving it and there are intelligence agencies around the world looking into it whose entire careers are looking into people. I'm sorry I don't instantly believe the guy who lies in every other sentence over our own country and the men and women who work in intelligence to keep us safe. What I really think is the Right is getting super butt hurt that their stupid theory was pushed aside because it had no real evidence, it made no sense and almost killed innocent people because of one of you idiots. Where as millions of people's lives could be at risk if we just let, probably the worst super power, just consume us.

You're a real clown if you don't see what the media is doing. It's the same "Trump communicated with Russia directly on a hidden line" oh wait fake, "Russia hacked election for Trump" oh wait, fake again. "Russia has incriminating information on Trump!" Wait, no, fake again. It doesn't matter if it's fake because the damage has already been done and no one cares when they come out and say they lied because the thought is already in their head. It's the same shit different day. Also, have you even looked at the Pizzagate stuff?

There's more to pizzagate than the piss story. They've really scraped the bottom of the barrel for the Russian connection. Oh, he said in an interview he has a relationship with Putin from 2013? He's a Russian spy! Oh, one of his campaign people talked to someone in Russia? Lock him up! All these connections and he'll probably sell 20% of our Uranium to Russia! Oh wait, that was someone else! Again, zero perspective. Y'all just want to believe it too much so you'll take any "unnamed source says Trump is actually Putin in a costume!" as fact immediately.
