12. I'm unclear, who is JKB accusing of lying?

IOW, who falsely claimed that Trump was the FIRST one to call the cops, and that his call somehow instigated the investigation? Who/what outlet(s) promulgated that lie by framing it in those terms?

I mean it sounds like a really silly lie, given that Reitner said Trump said things like "I'm glad you guys are doing this", which *clearly* indicates a reactive rather than proactive position in the situation.

Seems ludicrous anyone would frame this 2019 claim from Reitner as indicative of Trump being any kind of instigator, but we know how Fox, et al report shit about Trump
