Byron Donalds is finally being called a “liar” on TV

Democratic strategist Keith Boykin refused to accept Rep. Byron Donald’s repeated lies in defense of Trump after the Florida congressman claimed the former did not call for a day of violence and that crime was skyrocketing in the country.

CNN anchor Abby Phillips played a clip of Trump advocating violence during a rally and asked, “Why isn’t this violent rhetoric?”

Donalds refused to answer the question and tried to change the subject. He then claimed that crime had “massively increased” in the country, which was another lie. Enter Keith Boykin.

DONALDS: We need to acknowledge the reality of what’s going on in every city in America.

BOYKIN: I’m not answering the question. I’m not answering the question.

DONALDS: That’s the answer to the question because the reality in America. Wait, Keith. The reality in America is that crime is on the rise.

BOYKIN: Crime has not increased massively! That’s a lie!

You’re lying, Congressman.

You lie.

DONALDS: We already know that there are cities…

BOYKIN: Crime The FBI just released data this week that crime is going down. You know… you know that…

Oh my god, why…

Abby, why are you letting this man lie like this on your national television?

DONALDS: I’m not lying. I’m telling you the exact truth. You may not want to… You may not want to…

No, I don’t, because you are now lying to the American people. That’s why I want to be respectful of what you want to say.

PHILLIPS: Congressman, wait a minute.

BOYKIN: If you would just let me talk, I would tell you exactly what you want me to say. We have the data.

The FBI literally released data today showing that crime was down in the first six months of the year this year.

Boykin’s tactics must be observed and then repeated by television hosts and guests whenever a Republican surrogate is on the air spouting MAGAt talking points based on lies and conspiracy theories.

Trump said we needed a “day of violence” by police and imitated the movie “The Purge” to kill and maim all criminals or those suspected of being criminals.

The closer we get to November 5th, the more crazy and unhinged Trump becomes.

The country doesn’t need liars like Rep. Byron Donald paraphrasing and defending Trump’s madness.
