Trump's speech was so bad that Fox News had to attach a disclaimer

After Trump repeated his lie that the 2020 election was stolen, Fox News had to attach a disclaimer that it was not.

Trump's Kamala Harris introduction was a disaster. CNN stopped covering them. MSNBC didn't pick up on Trump's words, but Trump's campaign network Fox News aired all the lies, including his lie that the 2020 election was stolen.

After Trump After he stopped speaking, Harris Faulkner came on the air and said: “At first you heard the former president talking about stolen elections. And while he may feel a certain way, the facts remain Joe Biden was declared the winner with 51% of the votes. The states certified those results, and Congress accepted those results.”

What Faulkner read was a denial intended to avoid suing Fox News again for spreading lies about the 2020 election.

Trump has reached the point where his lies are dangerous even for the right-wing media.

Donald Trump's prologue was a complete fiasco and a waste of time. It was revealing that instead of going on the campaign trail, Trump was languishing at home trying to get free TV coverage.
