This is great. Not only is CNN fake news, but they are lazy. The Trump official is forced to act as her fact checker. It’s a short but entertaining video.
The E3 statement says nothing about the US and urges Iran to stay in the Nuclear agreement… the agreement that the President urged Europe to back out of.
It doesn’t look like the Fact check is all that good.
The claim: " The United States does seem to be almost completely isolated when it comes to its position on Iran at present. U.S. allies in Europe, in the Middle East where I am, and in Asia are calling for de-escalation or are virtually silent. There is almost no support for U.S. actions. Where are America’s allies at this point?"
The E3 statement did not have our allies communicating support for our actions in Iraq. In fact, it calls for de-escalation of violence by Iran.
This seems like another one of those Brietbart stories where digging into the source of information uncovers the truth that the headline and article are complete mischaracterizations. In other words, fake news.
We specifically call on Iran to refrain from further violent action or proliferation, and urge Iran to reverse all measures inconsistent with the JCPOA
The President just called for those countries to abandon that agreement.
There seems to be kind of a Gulf between agreement on this.
You haven’t demonstrated how CNN was fake in this instance. What fact was checked? I read the Brietbart article but both the article and the Trump official on CNN mischaracterized the E3 statement.
