CNN’s Jim Acosta tried smearing President Trump during today’s D-Day ceremony in a truly shameful way. And not only CNN, but later reporters at NBC picked up on a story that was a total fabrication and downright lie.
The story had no basis in truth, but was invented from the ground up by Acosta himself in an attempt to make Trump look bad on the world stage.
But, thankfully, it didn’t work.

Just because they don’t like Trump, the news media is taking that as an excuse to say whatever they want about him regardless of the truth.
And unsuspecting American audiences are eating it up.

Well, not this time! This time, they were caught red-handed in the act. And the result was truly cringeworthy for Acosta and the rest of the mainstream media press that picked up on his false story.

The fake news media has to daily present ugly, fake news, even during a time such as the momentous ceremonies marking the 75th anniversary of D-Day.
CNN talking head Jim Acosta tried to blame President Donald Trump for the late start of this morning’s ceremonies, in spite of clear evidence that it was host country French President Emmanuel Macron who was the one who kept everyone waiting for his arrival.
Sometimes you just have to watch for yourself to see how twisted and vile the Acostas of the media world are. Note in this short, tweeted video how, even as Acosta is complaining about Trump and Fox News, the simultaneous CNN video is showing the President and First Lady Melania waiting for Macron to get the ball rolling. Note also that after making his childish remarks, he tries to regather himself, saying you “have to put all that aside” because of the “stirring, remarkable moment for the world to witness, as politics was put aside.” …
Here’s the video:
CNN’s Jim @Acosta: “One of the reasons why he [Trump] was late getting here, he was sitting down with a Fox News personality…and so it’s possible he was dishing out a lot of that red meat while he was sitting down with Fox before giving this speech.” @IngrahamAngle #DDay75 pic.twitter.com/Jiy7I6PjO6

D-Day ceremony in Normandy starting thirty minutes late, veterans were waiting.
Trump did Fox News interview after he arrived, slowing him from reaching stage. But, from pool’s vantage point, he appeared to be done and ready before Macron arrived, at which point ceremony began

Here’s just a straight-up lie from NBC:

President Trump is late to the D Day Anniversary ceremony at the cemetery overlooking Omaha beach. Veterans of D Day & the French President waited as @realDonaldTrump failed to get here on time from his golf club in Ireland.

And people were not happy about it:
Mr. Macron didn’t get there until after Mr. Trump did. #youlie

Trump arrived before Macron. Were they supposed to start the ceremony without the French President? Journalism truly is dead.

“The President has received glowing reviews from the British Media. Here at home, not so much. MSNBC Ramps up hateful coverage and promotes conspiracy theories during Trump’s trip to Europe.” @seanhannity The good news is that @maddow is dying in the ratings, along with @CNN!

If the totally Corrupt Media was less corrupt, I would be up by 15 points in the polls based on our tremendous success with the economy, maybe Best Ever! If the Corrupt Media was actually fair, I would be up by 25 points. Nevertheless, despite the Fake News, we’re doing great!
