Chelsea Clinton is always looking to take a cheap shot at Donald Trump.
Once again, she leapt at the opportunity.
But this time it backfired in a major way.
Political reporters were buzzing over second hand comments made by anonymous sources.
Sports Illustrated reported that people who had played golf with Trump claimed he said the White House was “real dump.”

Chelsea Clinton immediately jumped into the fray and attacked Trump by claiming he was putting down the efforts of the White House staff.
Thank you to all the White House ushers, butlers, maids, chefs, florists, gardeners, plumbers, engineers & curators for all you do every day https://t.co/rjQS9HeALG

But this was fake news.
The White House denied the comments.
And even CNN’s Brian Stelter, a rabid Trump hating, left wing ideologue, cautioned against taking the comments at face value.
He wrote in his daily newsletter:
“Then there was this Sports Illustrated story about Trump’s “relationship with golf.” It quoted multiple golf buddies, sometimes anonymously, and one of the derogatory quotes is getting a ton of attention on social media. Is it newsworthy? I think so, but news outlets are wise to tread carefully with secondhand quotes attributed to the president provided by anonymous sources…”
This is the second time this week Chelsea Clinton was caught red handed sharing fake news.
She had earlier retweeted a tweet by Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling spreading the fake news that Trump had refused to shake hands with a boy in a wheel chair.
But the video was edited to leave out Trump acknowledging the child.
Clinton never bothered to check if the claim was accurate before retweeting it to her 1.8 million followers.
But she was the one who ended up with egg on her face.
Sadly, her massive mistake will not stop her from spreading more unfounded claims about Trump.
If BO, Hillary and Bill are grooming Chelsea to be president, they are doing a bang-up job. Maybe she could be elected dog catcher. I’m not putting down dog catchers, but that is the old saying for losers. She is pathetic, like her parents.
Amen!!
goggle eyed freak, one look at her and all dogs run! Smart dogs!!! Says more about them than the libtards that follow her around!!
If Chelsea would put on some makeup, she would look halfway decent. That would say a lot more than the gray matter that is absent from the skull she totes around.
shut your mouth and fix your face……
Nothing would make her look half way decent. The bigger problem to democrats and good news for those who despise democrats, is her toxicity she represents . The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. She is a product of Bill? and Hillary and that discounts anything she spews about Trump. The question mark on Bill being : Is he really the father?
Chelsea should stay out of the public eye and fade into anonymity.
She won’t, of course. She loves her proclamations and the sound of her own voice far too much, and mama is pushing her into the limelight — literally holding the microphone for her. Just think what a politician she’d make, having two of the world’s most corrupt liars as role models…!
