Trump Melts Down at Being Fact-Checked Right to His Face [wrongly deported dad]

Interesting article from the Daily Beast today on Trump's interview with ABC. Quoting from the introduction and conclusion of the article:
**
President Donald Trump complained that an interviewer for ABC News wasn’t “being very nice” when he refused to back up the president’s claims about a Maryland dad who was mistakenly deported.

During an interview Tuesday with Terry Moran to mark the first 100 days of his second term as president, Trump insisted that Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador’s brutal CECOT mega-prison on March 15, had “MS-13” tattooed across his knuckles.


[snip]

When Trump first shared the photo on April 19, internet sleuths argued it was misleading because Trump did not make it clear that the image had been digitally altered to include the alleged gang “context.”

The president’s online defenders countered that it was obvious the letters and numbers had been added to illustrate the president’s claims. Trump’s exchange with Moran, however, made it seem like Trump believed the letters and numbers were part of the original tattoo.

“That was Photoshopped? Terry you can’t do that,” Trump told Moran.

“Hey, they’re giving you the big break of a lifetime,” he continued. “You’re doing the interview. I picked you because—frankly I never heard of you but that’s OK. I picked you but you’re not being very nice. He had ‘MS-13’ tattooed—”

“We’ll agree to disagree. I want to move on to something else,” Moran said.

“Terry. Terry. Do you want me to show you the picture?” Trump said.

Moran said he’d seen it, and repeated again that Abrego Garcia only had tattoos that can be “interpreted” as evidence of gang membership. He tried to turn the topic of conversation to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but Trump wasn’t having it.

The administration has tried to justify deporting Abrego Garcia, a migrant from El Salvador whom an immigration judge had granted a form of legal protection called a “withholding of removal order,” by saying he’s a “terrorist” and a member of the notorious MS-13 gang.

The 29-year-old is married to a U.S. citizen and was working full-time as a sheet metal apprentice when he was suddenly detained and deported without being allowed to appear before a judge.

He doesn’t have a criminal record, and no court has found him to be a member of a gang. Instead, Trump officials have offered up tenuous evidence of Abrego Garcia’s MS-13 “membership,” including the tattoos.

“No, no. Terry. Terry,” Trump insisted. “No, no. No, no. He had ‘M-S’ as clear as you can be, not ‘interpreted.’ This is why people no longer believe the news, because—”

At that point Moran—who had responded to Trump’s earlier digs with a smile—sighed the kind of deep sigh that parents of toddlers know well.

He pointed out that the word “MS-13” doesn’t appear in any of the photos of Abrego Garcia that have been taken since he was deported to El Salvador.

“Terry!” Trump interjected.

“Ukraine, sir,” Moran practically begged.

“He’s got ‘MS-13’ on his knuckles, okay?” Trump said. “You’re just such a disservice. Why don’t you just say, ‘Yes he does’ and go on to something else?”

“It’s contested,” Moran replied. “Ukraine.”

Typical libtard drones, it's like you live in an alternative universe. Trump ripped that dweeb apart. The guy wasn't fact checking, he was spewing the talking points that you and your hive consume daily. Trump made him look like the moron he is, I enjoyed every second. The guy didn't know what he was talking about and was shocked when Trump asked him to explain how he knows what he doesn't know, LOL. I was cracking up, just like I am reading your dumbass post.

Could you show me where a court said that?
I could but I won't. You dumbasses need to leave your echo chambers and find the information yourself. You're all so lazy, in fact, almost every libtard I know is lazy. In this case you only need to use your fingers, no hard labor necessary.

Personally, I think the longer you idiot stay on the Kilmar case the better. Keep drinking the Kool-Aid, it's working just fine, maybe the democrats can go even lower in popularity, I just heard that Schumer's at 17%, LOL. The rest of the lot isn't much better. LOL Shit, I might start protesting with you libtards to help keep this thing alive.

It's certainly hard to reach people when your main focus is on insulting them.
 
If people spent less time insulting each other and more time trying to actually persuade each other, I think discussions would be a lot more productive.

There are many of us who tried civility for years, only to be constantly insulted. There is history. How many MAGA minds have you changed by your friendly persuasion?

Oh, wow, if you still haven’t bothered to sniff out the truth on this, I’m struggling to believe you’re not just trolling. What, were you chilling on the Moon or napping in a cave? My bad if you’re just now tuning in. But, come on, Democrats and their cheerleaders (yep, you) are straight-up insulting Americans with this unhinged nonsense.

Since you apparently fumble with Google, I'll start with this: Did you know that Kilmar’s own lawyer begged to keep him out of El Salvador because he’s terrified of rival gangs like Barrio-18 coming for him? Let’s start there. I’ll help you through this step by step, nicely.
 
No one is arguing that he doesn't have tatoos. The issue is that the picture of his hand that has MS 13 on it was photoshopped in.

How do you know the pics you claim aren't themselves pics with the tats photo-shopped out? See, you're pretty much lying and have no real proof, just spouting partisan crap propaganda.

Well, it's not like you left wingers ever post anything credible, just assorted idiot rants and parrots of fake news. You aren't interested in civility, never were.

Yep. Why does he fear MS-13's rival gangs unless he's a rival? Maybe those who support this illegal should start by answering that question...

Their Party loves the gangsters more than the 'regular' illegals. The tats give them woodies and lots of S&M fantasies popular with Deviants. Most Marxists are sexual fetishists of one sick type or another.

It would seem so. It's "funny" how the left thinks our constitution was written for invading illegals from every other country on the planet.
