Funbazooka 10/14/18 4:35:38 PM #36:	Fake News NBC Issues Correction Over Trumps Robert E Lee Comments https://dailycaller.com/2018/10/14/nbc-correct-trump-robert-e-lee-tweet/ NBC News has issued a correction over its reporting on President Donald Trumps Civil War comments, acknowledging that the president did not actually describe Confederate General Robert E. Lee as incredible. The correction is in reference to the following tweet NBC sent on Friday night, when Trump held a campaign rally in Lebanon. Ohio. NBC News did not include Trumps comments in full when it claimed Trump was calling Lee incredible. When looking at his comments just a few seconds sooner, its clear that the president was calling Ulysses S. Grant, the general of the Union army, incredible not Lee. Ohio is the state that gave us a great president who hasnt been properly recognized, OK? William McKinley has not been properly recognized. What he did in terms of trade, in terms of war, but in terms of trade and I hate to say, in being smart in terms of tariffs William McKinley has not been properly recognized. But maybe someday he will, president Trump said during the Friday rally. It also gave you a general who was incredible. He drank a little bit too much. You know who Im talking about, right? So Robert E. Lee was a great general. And Abraham Lincoln Developed a phobia. He couldnt beat Robert E. Lee. They said Dont take him; hes got a drinking problem. And Lincoln said, I dont care what problem he has. You guys arent winning. And his name was Grant, General Grant, Trump explained. The comments were in clear reference to Grant, a man who was born in Ohio and was known for his battles with alcoholism. NBCs correction comes after Trump skewered the network on Sunday morning for distorting his speech. --- "Don't trade your authenticity for approval." -Kanye West <cite>Funbazooka posted [p:910522732] in Trump call...
