LAST WEEK, KELLYANNE CONWAY USED TO THE FAKE EVENT, THE
BOWLING GREEN MASSACRE AS JUSTIFICATION FOR TRUMP'S
MUSLIM BAN.
CONWAY HAS MENTIONED THIS FAKE EVENT AT MULTIPLE MEDIA
APPEARANCES INCLUDING MOST RECENTLY HER APPEARANCE ON
CHRIS MATTHEW'S HARDBALL.
WHILE MANY TOOK TO TWITTER TO TROLL CONWAY'S MISSTEP,
OVER HALF OF TRUMP SUPPORTERS STILL THINK THAT THE MASSACRE
IS REAL AND THAT IT SHOWS WHY WE NEED DONALD TRUMP'S EXECUTIVE
ORDER ON IMMIGRATION.
I WANT TO SHOW YOU A CHART HERE.
THIS IS RESPONDENTS, ACCORDING TO THE PUBLIC POLICY POLLING.
THEY WERE ASKED DO YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE THAT THE BOWLING
GREEN MASSACRE SHOWS WHY WE NEED DONALD TRUMP'S EXECUTIVE
ORDER ON IMMIGRATION?
THE BREAKDOWN IS WHICH RESPONDENTS, WHICH
CANDIDATES EACH RESPONDENT VOTED FOR.
YOU CAN SEE, THE FIRST COLUMN IS THE SCARIEST.
23% OF PEOPLE THAT WERE POLLED AGREED THAT THIS IS
JUSTIFICATION REGARDLESS OF WHO THEY VOTED FOR.
57% DISAGREE AND 20% ARE NOT SURE.
THEN YOU JUMP INTO EACH CANDIDATE THERE.
51% OF DONALD TRUMP VOTERS AGREE THAT BOWLING GREEN
MASSACRE, AN EVENT THAT DID NOT OCCUR, A MADE UP EVENT,
IS JUSTIFICATION FOR THE MUSLIM BAND.
IT IS ALSO SCARY THAT 2% OF HILLARY CLINTON VOTERS AGREE,
6% OF GARY JOHNSON VOTERS AND 3%
JILL STEIN AND THEN JUST ANYBODY ELSE.
THERE IS STILL A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF PEOPLE WHO
THINK THAT THIS IS JUSTIFICATION FOR A MUSLIM BAN.
I LOVE THE 20%
OF PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT SURE BECAUSE THOSE ONES, YOU CAN
PICTURE THEM EATING A SANDWICH AND JUST GOING LIKE, WHAT?
YEAH, I DON'T KNOW.
COME BACK TO ME.
I DON'T KNOW WHETHER THIS WILL BE CONTROVERSIAL.
THERE'S A GREAT PIECE BY NATALIE JACKSON WHO IS A SENIOR
POLLING EDITOR FROM THE HUFFINGTON POST THAT I READ
AND RETWEETED BECAUSE I AGREED WITH IT.
THIS IS NONSENSE AND I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD BE, THIS IS
NOT THE WAY TO JUDGE TRUMP VOTERS.
YOU CAN ASK IN A POLL QUESTION, DO YOU THINK THE BOWLING GREEN
MASSACRE SHOW WHY WE NEED DONALD TRUMP'S EXECUTIVE ORDER ON
IMMIGRATION, MOST PEOPLE DON'T LIVE IN OUR WORLD AND THEY
THINK THAT QUESTION INDICATES THAT THERE WAS A BOWLING
GREEN MASSACRE.
WE NOW HAVE A POLLING AGENCY ASKING A QUESTION ABOUT A FAKE
NEWS EVENTS SO THE RESPONSE IS GOING TO BE IT WAS
REAL, RIGHT?
SO I ASSUME IT IS A TERRORIST ATTACK SO YES.
IT IS LIKE, IT MAKES FOR A GREAT HEADLINE AND IT IS A NICE GOTCHA
MOMENT BUT IT IS AN INAUTHENTIC WAY TO GET THIS MESSAGE ACROSS
AND I DON'T LIKE IT AND I DON'T WANT POLLSTERS ASKING
QUESTIONS TRICKING THE VOTERS INTO A RESPONSE.
OF COURSE PEOPLE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE BOWLING GREEN MASSACRE IS.
NOBODY FOLLOWED THAT STORY, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, THERE WERE
EIGHT MORE IMPORTANT STORIES THAT HAPPENED WITHIN THE NEXT
20 MINUTES AFTER KELLYANNE CONWAY SAID IT AND I'M NOT
MINIMIZING ITS IMPORTANCE I'M JUST SAYING IT IS IN AN
AVALANCHE OF NONSENSE COMING OUT OF ADMINISTRATION.
YES AND NO.
I DO AGREE WITH YOU THAT HAVING THIS MASSACRE BE IN
THE POLLING IS A PERPETUATION OF FAKE NEWS AND ISN'T FAIR BUT ON
THE OTHER HAND, THESE ARE THE SAME PEOPLE WHO PROBABLY DID
THAT POLL LAST YEAR WHO WOULD CARPET BOMB THE FICTIONAL
CITY OF AGRABAH.
IF YOU ARE NOT SURE, DON'T SAY YOU WANT TO BOMB A CITY OR THAT
A MASSACRE IS A REASON FOR BLOCKING PEOPLE FROM SEVEN
COUNTRIES WHO WERE FLEEING HARDSHIP AND TORTURE FROM
COMING INTO OUR COUNTRY.
NOT FOR EITHER.
I WOULD GO BACK AND SAY A CLEAR WAY TO DO THAT POLL
IS DID THE BOWLING GREEN MASSACRE OCCURRED?
THAT'S THE ONLY WAY TO REALLY COME TO THE CONCLUSION.
THE OTHER ONE IS LIKE, THERE IS A WAY YOU COULD AGREE WITH
THIS STATEMENT IF YOU READ IT AND YOU STILL KNOW WHAT
THEY ARE REFERRING TO IN THE BOWLING GREEN MASSACRE.
THERE'S ONE WAY THAT IS LIKE I UNDERSTAND, IN MY OPINION,
KELLYANNE CONWAY MISSPOKE AND WHAT SHE WAS TALKING
ABOUT WAS THE FOILED PLOT TO DO NEFARIOUS ACT AND THE
FACT THAT THERE IS PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY THAT ARE
TRYING TO DO THAT IS SOMETHING I DON'T AGREE WITH AND THINGS LIKE
THAT MAKE ME, THAT'S THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT
THERE.
PEOPLE OUT THERE COULD DO THAT.
THERE OTHER FOLKS ARE
JUST HEAR POLLS AND I BELIEVE THIS TO BE TRUE AND I'VE SEEN IT
IN VARIOUS STUDIES SINCE I WAS IN COLLEGE THAT PEOPLE ANSWER
POLLS BASED ON WHAT THEY THINK YOU ARE TRYING TO DO TO THEM.
THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE DO THAT.
I AGREE WITH YOU, I THINK WE ARE PUTTING THE ACCOUNTABILITY
OF THIS WRONG INFORMATION ON PEOPLE WHO DON'T HAVE THE
INFORMATION INSTEAD OF BLAMING KELLYANNE CONWAY FOR PUTTING OUT
WRONG INFORMATION BUT THERE'S THIS AGENDA THAT CONTINUOUSLY
TRYING TO MAKE ALL OF TRUMP SUPPORTERS SEEM LIKE THEY
ARE DUMB AND EVERYBODY WHO VOTED FOR DONALD TRUMP IS NOT A DUMMY.
OR A PERSON WHO IS UNEDUCATED OR IS NOT CULTURED.
THEY ARE ALL NOT HILLBILLY KKK MEMBERS THAT ARE OUT THERE
TRYING TO YELL AT EVERYBODY.
THIS IS THE KIND OF STUFF THAT IS CONTINUOUSLY TRYING TO PUSH
THAT AND AS A PERSON WHO IS ON THE OTHER END OF THE
DISCRIMINATION THAT CONTINUOUSLY COMES FROM THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE
IN FACT BIGOTS AND STUFF, THIS MAKES IT HARDER TO BRIDGE THE
GRAB BETWEEN PEOPLE AND I THINK THAT FOR ME, I AM SO TIRED OF
READING ABOUT DONALD TRUMP AND HOW STUPID HIS SUPPORTERS ARE
AND HOW EVIL THEY ARE, IT'S DEPRESSING TO READ THAT.
THERE'S THE SNARK THAT IS ALWAYS UPON US ABOUT HOW DUMB THEY
ARE AND I THINK AT SOME POINT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO
FIGURE OUT SOMETHING BECAUSE WE HAVE TO LIVE WITH THESE PEOPLE.
THE OTHER THING THAT I WANT TO SAY ABOUT THIS IS THAT
THERE ARE A LOT OF POLLS THAT ARE GENERATING BAD
INFORMATION THAT ARE NOT JUST TO SUPPORT THESE ALTERNATIVE
FACTS THAT ARE COMING FROM THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION AND
THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE BELIEVE AND I THINK IT IS SAD, BECAUSE
THAT IS WHAT THE INTERNET DOES.
IT PUSHES OUT STUFF FOR CONSUMPTION AND UNFORTUNATELY,
THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW A LOT OF THIS STUFF.
I DON'T NECESSARILY AT LEAST FROM MY STANDPOINT, I LOOK
AT THESE NUMBERS, AND I WANTED TO BRING ATTENTION TO THAT
FIRST CONFERENCE BECAUSE 23% REGARDLESS OF WHO THEY VOTED FOR.
IT'S NOT NECESSARILY ABOUT SAYING TRUMP SUPPORTERS ARE DUMMIES,
IT'S MORE OF A COMMENTARY ON THE INFORMATION AND HOW IT SPREAD.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
AND HOW IF SHE SAYS THE BOWLING GREEN MASSACRE AND THAT IS
TRENDING ON TWITTER HOW THAT CAN JUST SEEP INTO A CURSORY
LANDS AT TWITTER, A CONCEALMENT OF PEOPLE'S MINDS AND HAVE
THEM BELIEVE SOMETHING THAT IS SO ROOTED IN FALSITIES.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
LET'S GO BACK TO THE GRAPHIC OF THE RESULTS.
LOOK AT THE REST OF THE CATEGORIES.
THE 51%, YOU SAY THAT 23%
GENERALLY AGREED BUT THE OTHER CATEGORIES ARE 2,6,3,
AND TWO.
IT IS THE 51% THAT IS BRINGING AVERAGE UP TO 23%.
AND THAT IS THE HEADLINE.
HALF OF TRUMP SUPPORTERS BELIEVE THE BOWLING GREEN MASSACRE
IS REAL.
THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT THAT YOU HAVE TO BE VERY
SPECIFIC IN THE WAY YOU INTERPRET POLLS BUT IT IS
TRUE, I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU THAT THERE ARE A BUNCH OF
PEOPLE WHO ARE LIKE, THE SAME ONES WHO SAY THE ACCRA BALL
POLE AND THE SAME ONES WHO SAY IT IS COOL FOR TRUMP TO
HAVE HIS OWN PRIVATE EMAIL SERVER EVEN THOUGH HILLARY
CLINTON HAD HERS AND THAT IS WHY THEY ARE UPSET WITH HER.
THERE ARE PEOPLE OUT THERE, IT'S JUST THAT WHEN I WANT TO GO
AFTER THE PROBLEMS WITH SOMEONE'S ARGUMENT ON THE OTHER
SIDE, I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I DON'T DO ANYTHING THAT KIND OF
UNDERCUTS MY CREDIBILITY AND REVEALS ME TO SEEM LIKE, I'M
FRUSTRATED FOR SURE AND THERE IS A PART OF ME THAT REALLY WANTS
TO GO AND SAY YOU GUYS THINK THE BOWLING GREEN MASSACRE HAPPEN,
YOU IDIOTS, DO SOME RESEARCH BUT THEN THERE'S A PART OF ME THAT
IS LIKE IF I DO THAT THEY ARE JUST GOING TO CALL ME SOME
RAGING LIP HARD AND IT DOESN'T REALLY BOTHER ME WHAT THEY THINK
OF ME, BUT IT BOTHERS ME HOW I AM PRESENTING MYSELF AND MY OWN
CODE OF HOW I WANT TO BEHAVE
I AGREE, THE ONE THING I HAVE NOTICED BECAUSE I FOLLOW
THE PEOPLE WHO REGRET VOTING FOR TRUMP AND YOU SEE A LOT OF
PEOPLE WHO ARE SAYING THAT THEN THEMSELVES ARE LIKE PLEASE
TURN KELLYANNE CONWAY'S MICROPHONE OFF.
WHY IS SHE STILL SAYING ANYTHING FROM THE ALTERNATIVE FACTS TO
THIS OR TWO PROMOTING OF AUGUST PRODUCTS, PEOPLE ARE TIRED
OF HER, THE PEOPLE WHO WANTED RESULTS THAT VOTED FOR
TRUMP FOR WHAT THEY THOUGHT HE WAS REALLY GOING TO DO FOR
THEM AREN'T INTERESTED IN THIS KIND OF STUFF.
