 Let's see what's going on Twitter today Maybe I shouldn't starting the day off with Twitter usually doesn't end. Well Whatever Costa three years ago today Trump says there were quote very fine people on both sides Welcome back everyone ever since Charlottesville the media has continued to claim that during a press conference Trump called neo-nazis and white Very fine people despite there being plenty of video and transcript evidence to the contrary This claim is so thoroughly debunked that I'm gonna use the video that Jim Acosta linked in his tweet to debunk the claim We're gonna get right into this alternate reality fact check But first give me just a moment to tell you about this very special offer for my subscribers from this episode sponsor a Ryan Metal exchange how far will your US dollar go once we tally up all the debt Accumulated in the fight against coronavirus how will government mandated business shutdowns affect the economy moving forward my friends Uncertainty is the enemy investors and savers alike need to guard against now is the time to take action Protect yourself protect your financial future Did you know that it took nearly eight years for the markets to recover after the 2008 housing bubble crash?

Mr. Vice President Are you aware that you're misquoting Donald Trump and Charlottesville? He never called neo-nazis very fine people He called all those folks who walked out of that they were neo-nazis shouting hate the veins Changing history you're changing culture and you had people and I'm not talking about the neo-nazis and the white nationalist Because they should be condemned totally but he said specifically that he was condemning them I'm not talking about the neo-nazis and the white nationalist because they should be condemned totally I'm sure in that group. There were some bad ones the following day. It looked like they had some rough bad people neo-nazis White nationalist, whatever you want to call them. I thought what took place was a horrible moment for our country a horrible moment The media reported on the exchange, but get this they framed it as Biden's smacking down a right-wing propagandist So I get on Twitter this morning and it's apparently the anniversary of Charlottesville And I see Jim Acosta again repeating this lie knowing full well that he's lying Why do I say that? Because it was Jim Acosta's question that led to this entire thing and it wasn't even just Acosta It was many others in the media including some Democrats and Republicans repeating this lie over and over until it becomes true Now I know I've heard about that tactic somewhere and somebody using it famously But I can't quite remember so I'm on Twitter and I'm doing a search for very fine people We're gonna see everybody who's perpetuating this lie here We have Ethan Wolf who is the executive director of Jewish unity who says that three years ago The president claimed there were very fine people on both sides Equivocating neo-nazis with those who fought against hatred, but that's not at all what he did And it's like did you even watch the press conference? Or are you just repeating what you've heard over and over again? Then we have Doug Gordon here who says that three years ago today the president of the United States called neo-nazis who killed Some protests are very fine people then he posts this clip yet. Listen. You go to one minute of this clip and what's he say? Mark from Rock's Fine. You're changing history You're changing culture and you had people and I'm not talking about the neo-nazis and the white nationalists Because they should be condemned totally So this guy posts this and then he posts the clip that debunks his claim It's like none of these people have actually watched any of this press conference They just are told that he says it and they just take it as a complete leap of faith I mean like he can't can he not watch a minute and 12 Long video it's a minute long and he apparently has not watched it here We have Fred Wellman who's part of the Lincoln project Which if you don't know is a bunch of Republicans who opposed Trump and he says three years ago today I sat at home with my son-in-law serving with the Virginia National Guard to cure the lease statue in Charlottesville He didn't come home until almost midnight and it's the longest day of my parenting life Trump said they were very fine people How about US senator John Hickenlooper who says that Donald Trump defended white supremacists as very fine people again? I mean we've watched the clip now all of us have watched the clip doesn't type What's he talking about then we have David corn who was a Democrat Party strategist and also said that buying smartly contrasts this Day with the racist anti-semitic Charlottesville March three years ago to the day and Trump's very fine people remark Obviously misrepresenting what he said and just totally lying about it and of course no fact check on any of these posts Proving again that Twitter's fact checks are a complete joke Then we have AJ plus saying that it's been three years since the white supremacist is rally in Charlottesville and President Trump claiming that there were very fine people on both sides Then we have the buying Harris war room also saying that he called Nazis very fine people Where's the fact checks even Jake Tapper on the same network as Jim Acosta Admitted that Trump's words were being misrepresented now elsewhere in those remarks the president did condemn neo-nazis and white supremacists So he's not saying that the neo-nazis and white supremacists are very fine people In fact Trump was very specific in explaining that he and other peoples that opposed the removal of those statues We're doing so because the same logic could be used to remove Washington and Jefferson and what's happening now They're going after Washington and Jefferson But you also had people that were Very fine people on both sides you had people in that group. Excuse me. Excuse me I saw the same pictures as you did you had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of To them a very very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another day George Washington was a slave owner was George Washington a slave owner So will George Washington now lose his status? Are we going to take down? Excuse me. Are we going to take down? Are we going to take down statues to George? How about Thomas Jefferson? What do you think of Thomas Jefferson? You like him? Okay, good. Are we going to take down the statue because he was a major slave owner now. We're going to take down his statue So you know what it's fine. You're changing history. You're changing culture I want you to this clarify for our viewers briefly the distinction to be made between slave owning presidents and founding fathers and slave owners who fought to keep that that peculiar institution intact Conference and multiple times on Twitter President Trump has drawn comparisons between Confederate General Robert E. Lee and President George Washington. So here to defend himself. It's President George Washington overnight a group of people tore down the George Washington statue in Northeast Portland This was near Northeast at 57th and Sandy Boulevard about 11 last night a Fox 12 viewer sent us this video of the statue of the nation's third President as it was pulled down While Thomas Jefferson wrote all men are created equal. He also owned as many as 600 slaves in historic Virginia Churches we told you yesterday where George Washington frequently worship will remove a memorial plaque Honoring America's first president where he spent 20 years of his life the church will also take down a memorial honoring Robert E. Lee But where does this political correctness stop? So I'm sick of talking about this I'm sick of having to fact-check this claim that is undoubtedly and thoroughly debunked at this point No doubt There's gonna be more segments on CNN and the rest of the media throughout the day and the weekend that continue to make this Claim and I'll do my best to seek out all of them and expose them as the liars They are you can help me in that mission by hitting that like button sharing this video and subscribing Also, don't forget to hit that Bell notification If you want to further support this channel You can do so by supporting the sponsors that keep us going or by making a donation on one of the platforms that are listed in the Description or pin comment.
