‘Remember that?’ Trump again asks Americans to recall something that never happened
President Donald Trump asked Americans on Thursday if they remembered a massive television outage two years ago.
That outage didn’t happen.
As he has before, the president who is fond of telling imaginary tales was explicitly asking people to recall something he had made up.
This time, Trump’s fictional story was about wind energy. He has for years railed against it, tried to thwart it and made false claims about it – includinga phony anecdote about how, in places where wind power is used, people can’t turn on their TVs when the wind isn’t blowing.
Trump told other false tales, too
Trump’s wind story wasn’t the only fictional tale he told at the Thursday event. He also claimed California has “brownouts and blackouts every weekend,” which is simply not true; he has been making similar false claims about California for years, as in when he claimed he could ‘turn on the spigot’ to fight the LA fires, and he drained several reservoirs, which were needed for summer irrigation, but the water never made it close to LA, drying up before it got close.
