Should Trump, and Vance be accountable for repeating the lie of immigrants eating peoples pets?

Asked by SQUEEKY2 (23362points) 4 hours ago

It was debunked by city officials, the police, even the woman who started it with a FB post said she was wrong, but that didn’t stop Trump shouting it from the rooftops long after.
Causing bomb threats, and school closures, totally disrupting peoples lives and safety.

Is this spreading FAKE news that Trump screams the left do so much?
Seems the Don Father is very guilty of fake news himself.
Oh and the woman who started this said it was about a cat, Trump added dogs,then geese later.

I guess on election day some accountability?

Roseanne Barr was on Tucker Carlson saying that immigrants are eating babies and drinking their blood.

It’s literally blood libel. Lol. At least in some cases. A lot of people think of their pets like children. Saying “they’re eating pets” is only one step removed from “they’re eating children”. Which is the entire point.

Eventually, people are going to start wondering if every middle-American grievance is as fictional as this one. ;)

Should? Yes.

But by who? The right wing media won’t keep them honest. The left wing media know it’s an impossible battle to win.

And in the US, so far, there is not a ‘media police’ (although after 2025 there might be)

So they keep getting away with the pet eating, the post birth abortion, and rampant crime, all false but if they say it enough and loud enough their idiot base will believe it?^^

Of course he should ‘t. He did’t really say that, just ask him. He just said he heard it and other people were saying it.
