please show me where i said i don't think it hurt his credibility...

What I said wasn't disproven, he held up an article which contained a photo.

If you don't think this hurt his credibility that's fine, we don't have to agree on matters of opinion.

I didn't say you didn't think, I said "If you don't think".
In other words I stated my opinion, you don't have to agree.

Where was I wrong? You asked me to show you where you said something I never said you said.

He was talking about the alleged genocide in South Africa and held up a photo of Congo. He may not have said "this photo is from South Africa" but it is implied.

If I said I went mountain climbing and held up a photo of Mt. Fuji it would imply I was saying I climbed Mt. Fuji even if I didn't say the words.

If you are just pointing out that Trump didn't say "This is a photo of the genocide in South Africa" then I concede that point.

Wow, you really refuse to read what Mac originally posted to help you understand.  Instead of admitting you were wrong, now there's more post that isn't needed.

Or it does seem you have trouble understanding photos, like your issue with the "MS13" photo.

it's not implied

he said "look at these articles"
he held up a series of ARTICLES
the picture was of the Congo, but the ARTICLE was about the Congo AND South Africa

At least youre generous enough to re-post info that you already addressed. Lets wait to see what he will try to argue with next.

I am not disputing that. I am saying it hurts his credibility to show an image of Congo while talking about South Africa.

What was at the top of the article? A PHOTO of Congo.

What is the point of this argument, we are going in circles over a technical aspect which doesn't change anything.

So, you think it hurts Trump's credibility to be speaking about an issue in Africa while showing an article that happens to contain a photo of Africa?

This says more about your credibility than Trump's.  Why would we trust someone who makes up a scandal out of nothing just because he's biased against the President?

A distinction without a difference. If I hold up my phone and on the phone is displayed a photo, do you point out that I showed you a phone with a photo and not a photo?
