    A Newsmax host read a live disclaimer fact-checking Donald Trump after his rally in South Carolina on Friday 23 February.

    “The [former] president mentioned in his speech the 2020 elections. Newsmax as a network believes the results were legal and final,” Carl Higbie said, after Mr Trump had finished speaking in Rock Hill.

    Fox News also had to cut coverage of the rally to issue multiple fact-checks to his speech.

    Anchor Neil Cavuto prefaced the list of corrections - for topics including the stock market, gas prices, and the 2020 election - by saying: “Even though he’s entitled to his opinion, he’s not entitled to his own set of facts.”

    __________________________________________

    MAGA have gone so far down the rabbit hole that right-wing media covering Trump rallies are forced to make disclaimers about election lies and all sorts of other topics.

    The punitive damages Fox paid Dominion have had an impact.

    Will MAGA ever emerge from the dystopian world into which Trump has thrust them?

    President Trump did not send the U.S. down any hole, the politicians with their politics as usual did.

    Trump will NEVER be president again, and he will NEVER be convicted of this crap the current corrupt politicians of this country accuse him of.

    The citizens “should” unit and force the corrupt “leaders” to work for our country again, but this will never happen because it’s impossible to get the taxpaying citizens to agree on anything.

    As the rest of the world laughs their a—-s off at us, the taxpaying citizens of this country DESERVE EXACTLY WHAT THEY GET in the very soon for trusting the “obvious politicians that cater to everyone except the taxpayers”.

    Actually, the people should take responsibility as they are the ones that went down the rabbit hole as OP said. I don't blame Trump or politicians at all. They're simply doing what the people want. What I don't understand is those that complain about corruption and as soon as leaders start becoming accountable, they complain about that too.

    I watched that video as well - thanks for posting it. Sadly, we will see the talking points regarding gas prices continue here because the Gospel according to Trump has been disseminated amongst the following.

    Hahahahahahaha! It's amazing the extent these "legit news" outlets need to go to, to spread and counter disinformation spread by their guests and the GOP Party flagbearer. There is a level of decrepit disingenuousness that surround Agent Oranges.

    But I'm not laughing.

    To tell the truth, MAGA scares me.

    Trump glorifies violence, praises the worst dictators on this planet and wants American servicemen executed for treason.... with MAGA applause.

    When he doesn't win, elections are rigged.

    Trump is the most dangerous politician in US history.

    That disclaimer should probably just be permanently on the screen whenever the news story is showing Trump speaking or describing things he said. MAGA certainly have no standards when it comes to truth, which makes it funny when they complain about Biden's lies(which are legitimate criticisms). Do they get the irony? Do they understand how dumb and hypocritical they look? If they do, they must not care.

    Your quotes and the fact MAGA scares you is the result of you paying attention to msm.

    Simply put under President Trump life was less expensive and safer, under biden illegals whom we have no idea who they are or what they are capable of are threatening our way of life.

    It’s clear and obvious who is more dangerous to our country.

    Like I’ve said to many of my business associates around the U.S., (many of which voted for biden and have said they won’t again) who are you going to go to for help if one of these illegals attacks and possibly kills one of your loved ones? No one gives this much thought until it actually happens and only then will they look fur answers that are not there.

    So you don't want former presidents expressing their opinions. I can get on board with that.

    I don't want to silence Trump.

    I just don't want him elected again.

    Trump has gone so far in his demagoguery that the right-wing media fact-check him live in his speeches.

    I don't need any media to decode what Trump is saying.

    He's a criminal and a demagogue.

    The right-wing media fact-checks him live.

    What planet do you live on?

    The homicide rate rose under Trump and plunged as soon as Biden was elected.

    Crime on the Decline

    You have millions to convince.

    I believe they'll be happy to vote for a convicted felon to lower the country's crime rate....

    Notice how this factual thread gets totally ignored by the "faithful" army? Quite coordinated and unsurprising.

    I don't want him elected again either, or Biden either. I'm amazed at how good Americans are at punishing themselves. Our form of democracy isn't working very well.

    Biden doesn't hurt anyone, he's a great POTUS.

    Biden is a figurehead. Presidents don't manage the economy. The economy manages presidents. He is the worst POTUS in my lifetime. That you think otherwise is a little scary for me. I worry when partisanship replaces obvious common sense. Sorry I disagree.

    That appears to have worked??!! Regardless, I agree, the presidency is about decision making and not entertainment and The Big Show. Joe makes wise decisions for the country in total and from what I can tell, not really making it about himself.
