Revisionist History is a go to for the Trump Republicans.
It's been happening since the civil war.
At times, the speakers and prerecorded videos appeared to be describing an alternate reality:
[h=1]Nominating Trump, Republicans Rewrite His Record[/h]
Hours after Republican delegates formally nominated Mr. Trump for a second term, the president and his party made plain that they intended to engage in sweeping revisionism about Mr. Trump’s management of the coronavirus pandemic, his record on race relations and much else. And they laid out a dystopian picture of what the United States would look like under a Biden administration, warning of a “vengeful mob” that would lay waste to suburban communities and turn quiet neighborhoods into war zones.
At times, the speakers and prerecorded videos appeared to be describing an alternate reality: one in which the nation was not nearing 180,000 deaths from the coronavirus; in which Mr. Trump had not consistently ignored serious warnings about the disease; in which the president had not spent much of his term appealing openly to xenophobia and racial animus; and in which someone other than Mr. Trump had presided over an economy that began crumbling in the spring.
...
The Republicans’ message veered wildly, sometimes between consecutive speakers. State Representative Vernon Jones of Georgia, a Democrat who has endorsed Mr. Trump, trumpeted the president’s support for police reform, for instance, while other Black speakers appealed directly to minority voters. Minutes later, a St. Louis couple, Mark and Patricia McCloskey, who recently drew wide attention in the news media for brandishing firearms at peaceful Black protesters in their neighborhood, turned to barely veiled racial rhetoric.
“Your family will not be safe in the radical Democrats’ America,” said Ms. McCloskey, sitting with her husband in their home, warning that Mr. Biden, the Democratic nominee, wanted to “abolish the suburbs.”
Trump has no record to run on and America isn't better than it was four years ago. All the Republicans have to sell is fear -- just like Hitler's Nazi Party sold fear of Jews to a gullible Germany.
The fact checkers were exhausted. The lies just kept coming and coming and coming.
This is probably the most outrageous one:
TRUMP: “We protected your preexisting conditions. Very strongly protected preexisting ... and you don’t hear that.”
Trump. And the Republicans. Protected Americans preexisting conditions!!! OMG. Shameless, brazen, lying.
The alternate reality is you thinking his record has been rewritten or misrepresented....what we are hearing is the REAL reality that the leftist kook media doesn't want tell anyone.

So you believe that Republicans protected Americans from preexisting conditions?
Revisionist History is a go to for the Trump Republicans.
I don't believe its the governments job to be looking after anyone's preexisting conditions although Trump has said he thinks that requiring insurance companies to except patients with preexisting conditions is the right thing to do.
Keep believing you're not being conned, like a Trump university student. Did you know that it wasn't that Trump was conning these students put the fault was the media and the prosecutors doing something about it? Yeah, yeah, that's it.The alternate reality is you thinking his record has been rewritten or misrepresented....what we are hearing is the REAL reality that the leftist kook media doesn't want tell anyone.

Then you are one of the marks that Trump is betting will believe him.Lucky 1 said:I don't believe its the governments job to be looking after anyone's preexisting conditions although Trump has said he thinks that requiring insurance companies to except patients with preexisting conditions is the right thing to do.
In other words, his EO doesn't do anything that Obamacare already guarantees and is just parroting what the law already does. If Obamacare didn't exist, this EO would not hold any weight. A president can't mandate something without an underlying law governing it.President Donald Trump on Monday acknowledged a prospective executive order he's considering to make insurers cover pre-existing conditions amounted to political messaging — and that Obamacare already offered such protections.
"It's a signal to people ... it's a second platform," Trump said at a White House briefing. "Pre-existing conditions will be taken care of 100 percent by Republicans and the Republican party. I actually think it's a very important statement."
Trump had teased the executive order Friday night at his private club in Bedminster, N.J., while unveiling other executive actions to address the coronavirus crisis and economic crash.
Background: Trump and Republicans are vulnerable on the issue of pre-existing conditions after waging a lengthy legal battle to strike down Obamacare and its consumer protections without offering a replacement.
Trump's administration has also increased the availability of cheap, skimpier health plans that don't meet Obamacare's coverage requirements and wouldn't protect some patients with chronic conditions.
So what does this have to do with his record as president?? A big fat nothing!
His accomplishments as president have been extraordinary and are plain to see.
I don't believe its the governments job to be looking after anyone's preexisting conditions although Trump has said he thinks that requiring insurance companies to except patients with preexisting conditions is the right thing to do.
Trump claimed that he restored a failing economy.
