when that was not the case.
Eventually they brought someone into custody and that person was not the right person.
So the FBI, it wasn't just one time thus far.
Trump said they had someone in custody when the shooter was on the loose and the shooter's still out there.
Then they brought someone into custody who they said was the suspect, who actually wasn't, based on information that came from the FBI that they gave to Providence.
They gave him the wrong person.
So first, let me show you what Donald Trump said in the Oval Office.
Then I'll show you what he said at the Christmas party.
Then I'll show you what the mayor of Providence said.
But first, Trump in the Oval Office.
In addition to the fact that that's the most disgusting form of fake leadership, to say that we're not involved at all, he actually inserted himself into the shooting.
by providing false information while it was taking place in the middle of it.
And then also the FBI were the ones who gave the wrong information, the false information to Providence.
to the mayor there in Rhode Island.
And I also want to specify too, so there were a lot of Trump people supporting, you know, coming to Donald Trump's defense after he wrote that the suspect was in custody and saying all that.
And they were saying that, oh, he is actually just repeating like what the university said and what all these people said.
They had already announced that that was not true by the time Donald Trump had posted it.
And Donald Trump
said that he got a briefing and that this came from his briefing, but what it really appeared that he was doing was reading Twitter and parroting things that he saw on social media, no different than these right-wing influencers who just make things up.
When you're the president of the United States, you should be held to a much bigger standard than a random person on the internet.
