misquoted

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing,” John F. Kennedy warned as he misquoted Edmund Burke.

For about two hours on Monday morning, trading in shares of about 40 stocks on the New York Stock Exchange was halted after a technical glitch led to misquoted prices, including those of Berkshire Hathaway, which showed a drop of more than 99 percent.

His claim was debunked by several fact-checkers who said he had misquoted the former prime minister.

They misquoted him to his face, misrepresented his work, and spouted cocksure inanities showing with every word that, scientifically speaking, they have no idea what they’re talking about.

But Green denied doing so, claiming that the article misquoted him.
