I know nothing about John Wayne, but the MAGA kids thing was basically a hoax. It's the definition of "fake news", a term I hate, but it applies there. It's a perfect example, and the fact that you still believe the completely baseless narrative highlights why.

That's not their narrative, that's people watching the video for themselves. It's not even worth debating at this point, because if you don't see two grown men barging into a group of kids that they have nothing to do with and getting in the face of one of them while the other shouts actual racist things at them (watch with sound), then no amount of factual information is going to change your point of view.

The students from Covington Catholic didn't "surround" anyone, Nathan Phillips approached them.
