And then there was the video on Facebook showing UPS airplane supposedly full of Syrian refugees landing at HIA and a shot of the rear of the bus supposedly taking said refugees to Indiantown Gap for resettlement. What is wrong with people who post such garbage to be the truth? And our Republican presidential candidates who read similar trash in tweets as the gospel truth? Sometimes I wish these social media had never been invented because of the terrible damage being done thru them.

SHEESH . . . When even Breitbart (the esteemed purveyor of wacko bird, extreme right wing conspiracy theories and perpetual rumor mongering) stands up and shoots down (let's hear it for second amendment rights) Trump's unfounded statements about thousands and thousands of New Jersey Muslims celebrating the downing of the twin towers, you must know that people aren't buying your snake oil.
Here's a quote from Breitbart on Trump's claim:
"However it is likely the celebrations never happened, at least on that scale. Trump may be confusing rumors about Jersey City with actual, televised Palestinian celebrations abroad."
Or, as per my theory, he had a bad brown acid flashback.

Researchers are calling it "false memory." He may have seen Palestinians dancing in the aisles on tv but remembers it as people in NJ!

The guy is a serial confabulator.
Trump may not even realize that he is lying anymore.
Although, it seems so calculated to appeal to ignorant, bigotted voters that it is probably intentional.
The mystery is why anybody would vote for him.

Trump is rapidly devolving into the 21st century's Barry Goldwater.
