David Jolly: ‘Donald Trump Is a Fictional President Who Is a Story Teller and a Pied Piper’

JOLLY: “Yeah, so part of it, what have we learned about how to fact-check it? But let’s also recognize what we’ve learned about where America is today. Donald Trump is a fictional president who’s a storyteller and a pied piper, whose followers will believe whatever he tweets out or sends out on Truth Social. And this is a perfect example, someone who simply by suggesting he wins, now the economy is better, the border is better, peace is better, all these other things. And then, Earth 1, as Nicolle likes to say, those aren’t — those simply aren’t the facts. And to the point of where credit is due, Joe Biden has a remarkable 4 years to point to. But Donald Trump is a storyteller, and he will tell a story that many Americans will follow. And I think it’s on the free press and people with conviction throughout the United States to recognize that maybe what he’s telling is not always true.”
