As we've documented numerous times before, freshman Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) would like for the masses to believe that he's the smartest, most legally savvy man in the room at all times, and he's not shy about trying to prove the point within the first few minutes of any public gathering - especially one that involves a captive audience.
Absent that, he's fond of taking to the Twitter machine, where the self-styled expert in all things likes to regale followers with his tales of supposed legal expertise mixed in with stories about how President Joe Biden is allegedly fit to lead this nation for another four years, despite substantial evidence to the contrary.

But Goldman's adventures on social media sometimes backfire, as was the case on Monday when he weighed in on the press/Dem-driven "Trump/bloodbath" debate with a doozy of a claim that if fact-checked by honest fact-checkers (few though they may be) would be found to be "pants on fire" false.
It started with a tweet that pointed out how the Democrat apologists in the mainstream media were doing their thing in taking former President Donald Trump's Saturday comments from an Ohio campaign rally about the auto industry wildly out of context:
We are witnessing the invention of the "bloodbath" hoax in real-time

In response, Goldman - whose "Smartest Man in the Room" ego enters rooms well before he does - suggested that no one ever used the term "bloodbath" to describe bad economic conditions/situations. Perhaps even more hilariously, he urged people to keep their "gaslighting" to themselves:
Since when does anybody use the term “bloodbath” related to economic problems?

Especially someone who already incited a “bloodbath” after he lost the last election.
We all know what he meant. Keep the gaslighting to yourself. https://t.co/GKiE3zPpvY
Except not only is that precisely one of the definitions of "bloodbath"...:

.. but it has also been used countless times by Democrats and the media over the years to describe less-than-ideal economic situations:
Look, the journos at @politico like to incite violence in all of these headlines with “bloodbath.”

I’m not going to give you the context though, because that would be actual journalism. pic.twitter.com/xEUombHyIM
You would think CNN had never heard the term “bloodbath” used to describe something economic.

They could’ve looked at their own Twitter. https://t.co/jwOqkxsHSw pic.twitter.com/oKQ9mmEMJN
People have literally used the term bloodbath in economics and markets forever. pic.twitter.com/F9uRt3xpz9

I'm not a legal expert and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, but I know when a member of Congress has been owned, and Rep. Goldman certainly meets the criteria in this case.
