To wonder at Trump spokesman’s ignorance of history?

[KimberleyClark]

He just described the sinking of an Iranian warship as the first time a warship has been sunk by torpedo since World War II. Um no it isn’t.

I thought the same when I read it.

Thing is with the Yanks, if they didn’t do it, it never happened.

Yep…spot on

The man is abhorrent.

I'm not at all surprised - but they know most of their audience won't know any better so they can pretty much make shit up.

Even if he did know Trump and his cohorts just blatantly lie , distort facts and basically just make shit up . Morons on the world stage . I despair.

I imagine this far out few Americans will know anything about the Falklands.

• They weren't involved in the action
• They insisted it could never be don
• Mrs Thatcher tore Reagan a new one that left him standing for a week.

Trump once said "Smart people don't like me" and he got rid of everyone who didn't like him.🤷‍♀️

Every person in this administration has risen to the level of their incompetence.

It was uncomfortable viewing. He seemed almost gleeful.

I would say ignorance is more or less a pre-requisite to become part of the Trump administration.
