In the meantime, “Reliable Sources” host Brian Stelter is getting himself all hot and bothered about whether the President is gas lighting reporters and wondering if Trump even knows what that means. “In one case there was a terror attack the press did not talk about”.
“They have their reasons and you understand that”, Trump concluded, dramatically. “Why? Reasons. It makes ideal sense”. However, there is no mention of an actual massacre in Bowling Green. And an interview with Fox News, Conway called critics of her mistake “haters”, adding, “I misspoke one word“.
When presidential adviser Kellyanne Conway referenced a terrorist “massacre” in Bowling Green that never happened, it drew national attention to the city – as well as surprise and some good-natured ribbing from locals. During an appearance on MSNBC’s Hardball with Chris Matthews on Thursday, Conway made her already infamous comment about the fictional Bowling Green Massacre, an event she neither specified as occurring in the Bowling Green of northern Manhattan, Ohio, or Kentucky. “But I think a lot of the laughter is so we don’t cry”. All you can do is say “Yeah, I screwed up”. “It was a plot to massacre and they were Bowling Green terrorists”.
“There’s no part of our job that – doing it responsibly at least – that involves shutting out people who are an important pipeline to the center of power in America”, Louis said.
Fact! Every single Corvette made in the world today is produced in Bowling Green. “And I will not rest until they don’t”.
How can this not be the moment when you realize that we’re all being conned, albeit poorly?
Last week, Conway used the attack to justify Trump’s travel ban.
A controversy soon followed, and the presidential counselor said she misspoke, using the word “massacre” when she meant to say “terrorists”.
In the past 10 years, more than 2,000 refugees resettled in Bowling Green from more than a dozen countries, including some Muslim-majority countries, said the agency’s executive director, Albert Mbanfu.
The so-called massacre never happened and when the world pointed this fact out, Conway responded to the outrage by telling yet another lie. “Like the Titanic crashing into the Hindenburg, or when Lee Harvey Oswald was shot by a unicorn”.
