Trump’s birthday party parade. It appeared to be the same coverage on every channel. Here are channel 5 and channel 9.





During the parade, several threads were started at DU claiming that no one showed up to watch or that the paraders were being rained on.

Neither of these claims was true. The streets were dry. People turned out to watch the parade. Did it look as if rain could start at any time? It sure did. Was there a huge turnout? No, and the possibility of inclement weather no doubt kept down attendance.

The outlandish claims at DU were entirely false, but people kept making them.

If I wanted to read lies, I’d go to Gateway Pundit or Project Veritas.
