Ari Melber of MSNBC says: “Trump was his own biggest prop: a large white bandage on his injured right ear, a spectacle.”

MSNBC Host Locks X Account After Humiliating Exchange With Corey Lewandowski.

“…MSNBC host Ari Melber has locked his account on X (formerly Twitter) after threatening to sue Corey Lewandowski, a top team member on the Donald Trump campaign, for defamation during an interview. Lewandowski said Melber had previously stated Trump “had a bandage on his ear” at the Republican National Convention (RNC) after being shot “just for a spectacle.”

Melber, discussing a New York Times article saying Trump had acted as a “prop” at the RNC, had agreed Trump’s bandage was a “placard for delegates to fill in, an image for political mobilization, a spectacle for this candidate who we know is, by his own admission, obsessed with assorted spectacles.”…

‘I’M PUTTING YOU ON NOTICE!’

…“What you have is a false quote… I’m putting you on notice, if you continue to repeat falsely that I said that, you will be potentially in a defamation situation because I didn’t say that,” Melber threatened, declining Lewandowski’s offer to apologize to former President Trump for his remarks.

The far-left Daily BeastMediaite, and Huffington Post covered the exchange in tones suggesting Melber was in the right. However, their reports show that Lewandowski’s characterization of Melber’s statement about Trump and his bandage is correct.

Users on X began quoting Melber’s words back to him after clips of the exchange went viral, criticizing him as both a bully and a wimp for threatening a lawsuit. Melber responded by locking his account…”

MSNBC’s Ari Melber Caught Lying After Threatening Corey Lewandowski with ‘Defamation’; Locks Xwitter Account

“…When Normal People make mistakes, we admit the mistake and apologize. That doesn’t make us special. It makes us normal. Normal People know that if you want any kind of peace of mind, it’s much easier to admit, apologize, and move on than to stubbornly stand by what you know is wrong.

People in the corporate media are not Normal. They are lying sociopaths who have still not retracted nor apologized for any of this:

On national TV, Ari Melber threatened an adviser to the Republican nominee for president with “defamation” for … telling the truth.

It was Melber who was lying, who was threatening defamation to cover up his own defamation of a man who had been shot in the face a few days earlier…”
