Someone Edited Trump's Axios Interview So That Trump Is Arguing With Himself About Testing, and the Internet Has a New Hero

Someone Edited Trump's Axios Interview So That Trump Is Arguing With Himself About Testing, and the Internet Has a New Hero
Axios

President Donald Trump's interview with Jonathan Swan of Axios has gone viral for all the wrong reasons.

Trump's critics say the 30 minute interview made plain Trump's most damaging shortcomings, particularly in regards to understanding the data surrounding the pandemic that's killed over 150 thousand Americans.


One particularly tense clip, in which Swan presses Trump on the misrepresentation of death rate data, has dominated screens across the country.

Watch below.

 

Swan pointed out that the President was touting the death rate in terms of the number of cases, not deaths in proportion to population.

Trump responded:

"You can't do that."

What happened next was an awkward shuffle of papers and a brandishing of graphs.

Now, one clever editor Justin T. Brown recreated the video to make it appear as though Trump is arguing with himself. The video has since been shared by the prominent anti-Trump Republican group, The Lincoln Project.

The results are eerily comical.

 

Suddenly, Trump was in a dialogue with himself:

"You're last."
"No, but you're not reporting it correctly."

The two Trumps had the internet cackling.

 


 


 


 


 


 

The interview has now seen several edited iterations online.

Alyssa Milano Shares Poignant Tribute To 'TV Husband' Julian McMahon After His Death At 56

Actor Julian McMahon lost his battle with cancer at the age of 56 earlier this week, and to say that the Charmed, Nip/Tuck, and Fantastic Four actor touched many lives would be an understatement.

When the news of McMahon's passing went public, his Charmed costar and "TV wife" Alyssa Milano came forward and expressed her sadness and condolences on Instagram. The pair were a favorite couple on Charmed, and it was clear from her post that their care for each other extended beyond the screen.
