Horror author Stephen King continued his unhinged hatred of former President Donald Trump by posting an easily refutable claim.
On Thursday, King posted an allegation from former Trump Chief of Staff John Kelly that alleges Trump didn’t want to take photos with amputee veterans.
Trump didn’t want to be photographed with amputee veterans. He said, “It doesn’t look good for me.”

The author likely posted this without doing a cursory search to see if it might be a lie, because if he had, he may have stumbled across images like the one Joey Jones shared.

Not only is Jones a veteran, but he’s also an amputee who lost both of his legs to an IED in 2010.

Debunked by people in the room. When you do research for your books, are you this careless?

You really are a lying POS.
And you accuse Trump of lying.
