No, I'm not going into conjecture about how an EO will play out. I'm not here to discuss these theories. Here's hoping.
It's not "arguing semantics" - you're trying to tell me that Donald Trump was calling the AP reporting "fake news" when there's a bloody statement saying **"that is not what the AP reported" in the quoted tweet (from the DoJ?)
It's pretty clear that the wider media latched onto the AP's reporting and falsely drew their own conclusions. The tweet you point to is DEFENDING THE AP.
Yes, we know it's fake news (the media spin on the AP report) but it's not specifically calling the AP's reporting fake news:
READ it and try not to extrapolate anythjng for now:
From a DOJ spokesperson: “Some media outlets have incorrectly reported that the Department has concluded its investigation of election fraud and announced an affirmative finding of no fraud in the election. That is not what the Associated Press reported nor what the Attorney General stated.
Did you read it? It said some media outlets have... referring to the media's reporting on Barr/the AP report - it doesn't say the AP. It goes on to say the AP -did not- report that the DoJ has concluded it's investigation.
Allllll of that confusion came from Barr and the media spinning the AP report. Hence why the White House put out a statement.
Yes the story is bullshit. But only because Barr gave the media soundbites to falsely report from. Trump doesn't say the AP reporting was bullshit (specifically) and the tweet he tweeted specifically says the AP article was misrepresented by other media - hence it's not calling it bullshit either.
If you still don't get it after this, you're not listening..
In fact, Trump retweeted Herridge reporting that Barr's quote was fake
Except the retweet didn't say anything about what the AP quoted. It said that the AP did not report those things and that other news media was spinning it to mean those things.
And that's not all you said:
"And here is Trump saying the AP story is bullshit"
Which Trump didn't say either? He said the fake news media wouldn't report on the clarification which INCLUDED the part saying that is not what the AP reported.
So which is it bro? Are you talking about the AP story or "Barr's quote"? Also, which specific quote? His statements have been widely spun across the media.
You need to watch your mouth as well. Chill on your own ego.

If the news is reporting something that the AG said that is in fact NOT what the AG said... that is fake news.
The tweet goes on to say "that is not what the Attorney General stated"... that is my point of the story being "bullshit".

Bro.. when did I even say the AP story was fake?
My original quote is...
So not only are you arguing semantics... you are incorrectly arguing semantics.
What you said was:
