I'm not sure if Fox News makes up the majority of MSM. Fox News can say whatever they wish and their reach will still be somewhat limited outside the republican base.

It's made up

Trump would be a lot of hot water if he was disclosing that stuff in rallies. And you can bet that even Republicans would rip him a new one over that.

Thank you for proving my point of him not saying that it was top secret. He said the same thing that the news had been saying.

No biggie--it is just Trump lying yet again. He literally made it up. It's Trump again, telling it like it is not.

"...I'll never forget the scene this morning,” Trump told the crowd in Daytona Beach, Florida, recalling the video he said he had watched. “Iran ― I don’t think you’ve heard this anywhere but here ― Iran provided all of that footage, the tape, of taking that money off that airplane.

...The video was “merely the b-roll footage included in every broadcast” of the prisoner release, spokeswoman Hope Hicks confirmed..."

Since most of you probably watch CNN (whom completely ignored this story yesterday) you probably did not see that this was on the news all day yesterday.

I provide it because you Democrats are getting dangerously stupid. Didn't any of you notice the money transfer to Iran was all over the news last night.

Last night!

Trump's talking about old news and you folks are acting like this is the first time you heard it.

Well Said ----

Read the article ...“Iran released that tape, which is of quality like these guys have,” he continued, pointing to the media in the back of the room. “Iran released that tape so that we will be embarrassed.

Trump is a straight shooter and tells it like it is - that is one a his quality's his supporters like. Much more than Four-Pinocchio Hillary lies...

...

This is probably why you hear so many people making comments about holding their nose to vote.
This is definitely not a campaign about issues, thats for sure.

Trump tries to make it one, and then he "gaffs".. and no one cares about anything else..

the gov't gave him a TV pre-tuned to ABC and told him that it was their secret spy channel communications network and Trump made like he was privy to top secret info when in fact he was just watching the evening news.
