The #Resistance recently latched onto a photo, showing migrant kids separated from their parents.
Liberals have been all, “OOOOOOOOOOOMG! Look what President Trump has done! HEARTLESS RACIST!”
Just one minor issue. That photo is from 2014. As in, Donald Trump was not President of the United States. Obama was. So I guess he’s actually the “heartless racist”? HAHAHA. Yeah right.
Deleted previous tweet because gave impression of recent photos (they’re from 2014)

Correction: this link, which was going around this morning, is from 2014. Still disturbing, of course, but only indirectly related to current situation. My bad (and a good reminder not to RT things while distracted w family on the weekend). https://t.co/zbM4I0woUF

Awkward.
We call the press liars because they lie.

Wow let’s set record straight. You “said” it- not “gave impression” they were now- not 2014 under Obama. This is why you and others in media are fake biased news!!

Not only did she lie but one can only wonder why she didn’t tweet this in 2014

If you are a actual journalist you would repost the picture with the date and who was president. Just awful.

PS– this is also from Obama’s era too.

Graphic reality check on US immigration policy. But important piece of context in the link. This precedes Trump. Photo taken when Obama was president. https://t.co/7iaUJUMi4k

So I see we’re on day two of media blaming Trump for things that happened in 2016 before Trump was in office. https://t.co/wy01WJ6q54

So-called journalists: OMG LOOK AT THESE IMAGES OF KIDS IN CAGES. TRUMP IS A MONSTER.
Anyone who can read: Those images are from 2014. Obama was president
So-called journalists: Oh, never mind then. There’s no story here. Move along. Delete delete delete.

Funny how that works.
