President Donald Trump has called for ABC News’s broadcasting license to be revoked over the moderators’ bias during the network’s presidential debate on Tuesday night.
On Wednesday, Trump responded to the bias toward Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris by ABC moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis during the presidential debate.
Trump told the co-hosts of “Fox & Friends” that Muir and Davis were “dishonest” for not correcting Harris’s false statements about the Charlottesville riot in 2017.
They also gave Harris a free pass for false claims about his support for in vitro fertilization (IVF) and The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025.
Meanwhile, the leftist moderators repeatedly “fact-checked” Trump throughout the debate.
They didn’t “fact-check” Harris once, despite the fact that she made several false claims that have been widely debunked.
The 45th president said the ABC moderators unfairly “fact-checked” him while allowing Harris to state false and misleading claims.
“They’re dishonest and because I think ABC took a big hit last night,” Trump said.
“I mean, to be honest, as a news organization, they have to be licensed to do it.
“They ought to take away their license for the way they did that.
“Bloodbath was referred for the economy,” he accurately noted.
“Everybody loved that term because as soon as they heard that word, it is kind of a vicious word.
“But, referring to the economy, they have created an economy, bloodbath is the word I used, and it was fine in that context.
“They were trying to make it sound like it was a riot or something.”
“IVF, I was a leader on IVF,” Trump said.
“The IVF, which is in vitro fertilization, I was a leader on that.
“When I first heard about it, from the very beginning, I was one of the leaders on it and the Republican Party has been a leader on it.
“[Harris] was trying to say it was the opposite,” Trump continued.
“The whole thing about abortion, [Muir] said, it was incredible.
“I think he corrected me about six times, and each time I was right.”
The ABC moderators repeatedly “fact-checked” Trump while allowing Harris to get away with making false claims.
Davis immediately pushed back against Trump as he said some Democrat states allow for late-term abortions
Harris also falsely said that Trump plans to sign a national abortion ban if it reached his desk.
However, Trump has repeatedly spoken in opposition to such legislation.
Muir and Davis did not correct the vice president.
The moderators allowed Harris to falsely claim that Trump stated there were “very fine people” on both sides at the riot in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017.
The hoax has been repeatedly debunked.
Snopes rated the claim that Trump called Neo-Nazis and white supremacists false most recently in June.
The “fact-checker” noted that Trump said those groups of people should be “condemned totally.”
“She was using Charlottesville, and everybody, you take a look at [Fox News host] Laura Ingraham, she did it incredibly,” Trump told “Fox & Friends.”
“She had it totally debunked, in fact, she gets angry when people hear about Charlottesville when they use that.
“Because what they did is they stopped and they didn’t put the following sentence in, and when they put the last sentence in when it’s all put together, what I said was absolutely perfect.
“And ABC knew that, everybody knew that, frankly.
“I think they lost a lot of credibility.”
WATCH:
The moderators did not fact-check Harris when she alleged that Trump “intends on implementing” The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, a conservative policy outline and a personnel list to help serve the next Republican president.
The Trump campaign has publicly disassociated itself from the initiative.
Muir and Davis further fact-checked Trump when he claimed that Haitian migrants are eating pet cats and ducks in Springfield, Ohio.
The moderators claimed that the local police have not received any credible reports on the matter.
However, this claim is false as multiple reports have been made to police and city officials that pet cats and wildlife are being killed and eaten.
