4. Bill O’Reilly – Put Trump In His Place About Stats
Bill O’Reilly is smart. So smart, in fact, that he knows to do some fact checking before throwing anything up on social media. It seems Donald Trump doesn’t have time for such things. He even said so to O’Reilly in an interview in November. In this interview, O’Reilly refers to a retweet which claimed that 81 percent of murdered Caucasians were killed by African-Americans. He states, “That’s totally wrong; whites killed by blacks is fifteen percent, yet you tweeted it was 81 percent.”
And what was Trump’s defense? “Bill! Bill, am I gonna check every statistic?” Um…yeah! Or use all those billions of dollars you brag about to pay someone to fact check your tweets. Bill O’Reilly knows this. America knows this. All of the other presidential candidates know this. Trump just doesn’t seem to care.
