The shameless, unprincipled propagandists on the left have been smearing President Donald Trump with a blatant lie.
The lie is that his primary concern/priority right now as president is the building of the ballroom at the White House.
The lie was conceived by Acyn Torabi, a senior digital editor at the far-left agitprop factory known as MeidasTouch. He created the lie by taking a clip of White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt speaking completely out of context:

If you were to just read Torabi’s caption, which is what most harebrained leftists did, you’d immediately think Leavitt said that the president currently only cares about building the ballroom.
Only if you were to watch the whole clip would you know the full story.
“In addition to the ballroom and the Rose Garden patio, is the president looking at any other renovations or significant kind of projects here at the White House?” the clip began with a White House reporter asking.
“Not to my knowledge, no,” it continued with Leavitt replying. “But he’s a builder at heart, clearly. And so his heart and his mind is always churning about how to improve things here on the White House grounds. But at this moment in time, of course, the ballroom is really the president’s main priority.”
And so it isn’t that the president only cares about building the ballroom — it’s that within the context of building things at the White House, his only concern at the moment is the ballroom. Big difference!
Torabi’s propaganda nevertheless managed to seemingly fool thousands of prominent leftists, from California Gov. Gavin Newsom on down to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

Honestly, you can’t make this shit up. https://t.co/GYjl09qeGT

There’s a lot more where that came from. Others who uncritically shared Torabi’s propaganda included New York Gov. Kathy Hochul; Reps. Marcy Kaptur, Diana DeGette, Jason Crow, and Adam Smith; Sens. Mark Kelly, Mazie Hirono, and Amy Klobuchar; and many, many more!
Responding to these fools, some critics blasted them for easily falling prey to leftist propaganda. Other critics accused them of having known better and purposefully/maliciously sharing the propaganda.
“The question was about Whitehouse renovations and if the President had any more renovations planned. So yes you literally just made it up,” one critic noted to Sen. Schumer.
It sure seemed like it.

The question was about other renovations and she replied the ball room was his priority. Democrats are stupid.

The way you frame this isn’t really fair. In the context of the question, it’s his main priority relative to any other White House renovations.

Did you listen to the question that was asked? She’s obviously answering the question…as far as renovations to the White House go, the ballroom is his main priority.

Well there you have it… you’re a complete moron. It’s in reference to a reporters question. The question was about other renovations in the White House. Listening is hard eh.

She was asked specifically about other White House construction projects. The ballroom that he is finding himself is his priority- meaning no other projects. He can walk and chew gum.

The question was if the President was looking at any other renovations. So tired of the lies and gaslighting. If you were so concerned you would pass a clean CR and reopen the government. Instead it’s lie and pass the buck

Out of context. Press Secretary Leavitt says the White House Ballroom is President Trump’s priority in terms of renovations at the White House.
All Democrats do is lie.

Karoline Leavitt was asked if “the president is looking at any other renovations” at the White House?
Karoline answered: “At this moment in time of course, the ballroom is really the president’s main priority.”
This is how easily Democrats lie about stupid stuff. https://t.co/qGuZkvYYPV pic.twitter.com/1fBzh8sdRN

This is one of probably a million examples of leftists maliciously distorting the truth so they can score political points against President Trump, a man they’ve had the nerve to accuse of being a chronic liar.
