Of course, he lied. It’s Ed Schultz. It’s MSNBC.
Here’s how Ed Schultz opened his show on October 4, the Monday following the One Nation rally in Washington, DC:
“This is the story that has me fired up tonight. And really, it’s something that I’m gonna remember for the rest of my life. Ask yourself the question, ‘What do you think it would be like to stand on the Lincoln Memorial and give a speech off the top of your head?’ I don’t know if you can prepare for that. I did my best.”
Which one was it, Ed? Was the speech “off the top of you head” or did you “do your best to prepare it?” Those two options are contradictory.
And then there’s this video clip of the world’s largest Teleprompter being used by another speaker at the One Nation rally.
Now, admittedly, we have no proof that Ed used the Teleprompter, but he did seem to be looking off to his left frequently during the speech and it did seem a lot more coherent than most of the things he says.
We’re just sayin’…
