On Sunday, NBC's Chuck Todd asked Trump if he regretted posting it and making the false accusation of "ties to ISIS.".
TRUMP: "He was playing Arabic music, he was dragging the flag along the ground, and he had internet chatter with ISIS, so I don't know if he was or not, but all we did was put out what he had on his internet -- dragging the flag, which I respect obviously more than you. And he also had chatter about ISIS . . . or with ISIS. I mean, people are looking at it very seriously now, but you have to check it before you ask the question."
TODD: "Well, we have checked it. That's my point, sir. There are no ties to ISIS for this man. And this video that you link to is a hoax."
TRUMP: "OK, well, you just . . . Look, was it a hoax that he's dragging the flag? Was that him? It looks like the same man to me. Dragging a flag, playing a certain type of music, and supposedly there was chatter about ISIS. Now, I don't know. What do I know about it? All I know is what's on the internet."
Isn't that just peachy? Donald Trump feels absolutely no obligation to fact-check anything that he says. Nor do his stupid followers.
And don't we all know way too many people who are the exact same way?
