Trump rewrites Iran war timeline, blames press - Trump said the war in Iran would last 4-6 weeks. Then he changed his story and blamed the media.

If your time is short

  • President Donald Trump said multiple times in March that the war in Iran would last four to six weeks. He did not distinguish between a timeline to get rid of the nuclear threat and the overall war.
  • Trump occasionally made vague comments about his war timeline later, saying in mid-March, for example, “It’ll be as long as it’s necessary.”

I can appreciate saying "alledged" criminal in a news article, the determination requires a judge, and is not a legal fact until the end of the appeals. I get that.

But when you are talking about a politician directly contradicting or denying statements made AND you have video as well as published statements by several independent news sources, there is a clear term for that:  it's called LYING 

FFS, call it what it is!

Why even bother. His MAGA doesn't care and the rest of us already know.
