Sharyl Attkisson: WaPo Changed Trump's Statement to the Opposite Meaning.

Would Washington Post Lie? Attkisson catches them in the act, lying about what Trump really said.
Fact Check: The Washington Post on Donald Trump and John McCain

"Conclusion

Trump actually said the opposite of what the Post lead sentence and video caption claim. The Post might have been able to get away stating that Trump “implied” McCain was not a war hero because McCain was captured, but even that would have been a subjective interpretation since Trump had actually stated the opposite.

It’s true that Trump stated one time that McCain is not a war hero. But Trump stated four times that McCain is a war hero–and that was not accurately characterized in the article.

For interpreting and characterizing Trump’s true quote in a way that is at best questionable, and for selectively using some quotes and leaving others out, the Post receives Two Little Devils."
The Donald actually has the establishment vewy vewy worried. McCain is a RINO operative; hence his protection by WaPo. And McCain started this; The Donald just wrapped it up.
