Former Breitbart Editor: I Don’t Care If Trump Lies

John Nolte left his years-long gig as Breitbart editor as part of the mass staff exodus in May 2016 following the Michelle Fields incident. Yesterday he wrote this for the Daily Wire:



On this particular subject, I have been very clear since the beginning, since The Donald stepped out onto the political stage. And for the hard of hearing, let me put it this way… I DO NOT CARE IF DONALD TRUMP LIES.

For eight years I watched as Obama, his supporters and his mainstream media, enjoyed victory after victory by telling lie after lie after lie after lie. Big, brash, bold, brassy, brazen, blatant, bodacious, blaring, barefaced lies about YouTube videos killing four Americans in Benghazi, about me being able to keep my health insurance and doctor, about Mitt Romney killing a woman with cancer, about there being no successful domestic terror attacks under Obama’s watch, about the Obama administration being scandal free.

And here is what I learned: dirty politics work. The Democrats are currently using lies to defeat Trump. The mainstream media is a lying propaganda machine out to destroy Trump. So out of some misguided sense of virtue we’re supposed to surrender part of the arsenal? Yeah, no.
