    They were deceived? When the oulet said she lied, they were claiming to know the future. They lied.

      Eh, dislike this because outlets make claims about the future all the time based on what they think is most probable. I don’t think that’s lying in general. I would be more swayed that this is lying if they actually thought it was plausible that Trump would do this, and denied it.

        Outlets shouldnt be making predictions about the future with phrases that imply certainty. Especially when accusing someone.
