LIAR DONNY DOUCHE CNN’s Don Lemon Forces Trump Surrogate To Admit a Disturbing Fact We All Suspected (VIDEO) November 18, 2016Samantha News Now That Trump Is In, The Truth Is Even LESS Important Don Lemon of CNN just wasn’t having any of Trump surrogate Paris Denard’s utter disregard for the truth. President Elect Trump has once again shown himself to be utterly detached from reality and completely disinterested in facts. And Don Lemon gracefully proved it. On Thursday, the man who will soon take up residence in the White House took time out of what should be a busy schedule to tweet out in attempt to take credit for Ford Motor Company not moving to Mexico. “I worked hard with Bill Ford to keep the Lincoln plant in Kentucky. I owed it to the great State of Kentucky for their confidence in me!” Trump tweeted. Trump first made the claim that Ford was relocating from Kentucky to Mexico back in September, during a debate. Ford quickly fact-checked Trump’s untrue statement. Ford is bound by a labor contract with their worker’s union, and a move to Mexico was simply not even a remote possibility. Bakari Sellars, who was on CNN with Don Lemon and Trump surrogate Paris Denard called Trump’s strangely victorious and unfounded tweet a “fake news story.” He then went on to say that Donald Trump himself is a fake news story. “I think that this builds into a larger narrative and the larger narrative is Donald Trump is himself a fake news story. What we’ve seen is this — it’s this cycle of fake news stories that pop up and drive the narrative. Donald Trump will flat out lie and said he did something, which we can have objective proof he did not do and it’s category categorically false.” Denard quickly tried to make the pathetic case that Trump was somehow instrumental in keeping a plant in Kentucky that never had any plans of moving. ‘The Facts Are’ That, For Trump, Facts Don’t Matter “The facts are, Mr. Trump was outspoken and talking about how he was going to make America great again. He was outspoken and talking about how he wanted to bring jobs back,” Denard claimed. “When it comes to Ford, Mr. Ford, Trump was very factual and talking about, how he was not going to allow that to happen under his watch, meaning leave the American soil and go across the border to Mexico,” Denard insisted. “But they weren’t going to,” Sellars replied, seemingly incredulous.. “It doesn’t matter,” Denard said. That’s when Don Lemon entered, asking, “Paris, are you sure it doesn’t matter?” “It’s not about the truth. It’s about raising awareness,” Paris responded.

Let’s be honest and you’re sitting here on international television and telling people the truth doesn’t matter?” But it was Sellars who finished Paris – and Trump’s ridiculous argument – off completely. “One of the things about this whole dynamic of President-Elect is you have Paris say it doesn’t matter and now we’re saying maybe it was a step too far but what we’ve created over the past 18 months, and something we’ll have to deal with is a culture of low expectation. The fact is Donald Trump told a lie. He had to be corrected by the CEO of Ford. Ford was not leaving the United States going to Mexico. They had a contract with the union that said they could not leave, something that had nothing to do with Donald Trump at all and they were never going to Mexico. Now people pick up on this story. It’s a fake news story that goes around and it’s below the office of the presidency. I mean if he can’t tell the truth in a tweet about Ford, I mean, how will we believe him about anything else.” Watch the epic take-down by Don Lemon and Bakari Sellars in the video below. And let your Republican uncle know that no, Donald Trump did not save the Ford plant. If they’re wanting to know the name of the guy who saved the auto industry, that’s Barrack Obama.
