On Monday and Tuesday, the left went wild attacking Nebraska Senator Deb Fischer’s husband and accused him of refusing to shake Kamala Harris’ hand during his wife’s swearing in ceremony. But, once again, we see that the left is filled with liars because the video evidence proves their attacks are baseless.
In the video widely cited by the lunatic left, VP Harris swears in Sen. Fischer, then shakes her hand. Harris then moves to shake Bruce Fischer’s hand, but the man does not extend his hand. Harris then sheepishly withdraws, steps back, a gives a humorous little nod acknowledging that her handshake was refused.
The left called this an outrage and accused Bruce Fischer of snubbing the VP in a brutal act of hatred right there in an official setting.
The husband of a Republican senator just refused to shake hands or make eye contact with Vice President Harris.
The level of class you can expect from MAGA. pic.twitter.com/hTarflIqlw

Many others on the left also blasted Fischer, and called him every name in the book.
But video and still shots of that very moment tell a different story. It does not show a man stubbornly refusing to shake the vice president’s hand. It does not show a hateful partisan who is disrespecting an elected official.
No indeed.
Instead, it shows Mr. Fischer holding the Bible his wife was sworn in on in his left hand, and holding himself up with a cane in his right hand.
I other words, idiot Kamala Harris tried to shake hands with a man who was standing right in front of her with both hands already full and one of those hands holding a cane because of his health!
Lots of folks commenting (positively or negatively) on Sen. Deb Fischer's husband not shaking Kamala's hand. The clipped video does not show that the hand the VP tried to shake was holding on to a cane. https://t.co/blA1RIVsmI pic.twitter.com/gYBT3FWdYC

So, what we have here is the entirety of the left-wing rising up to attack a disabled man for using a cane.
That’s a good look for them, isn’t it?
