Warning: RT lies by omission. Handle with care.

- "Team, we have a problem: Trump considers arms-deals with Saudi-Arabia more important than the brutal murder of a journalist. How can we make him look good?"
- "Ehhh... That makes him a diplomat?"
- "What? No! This article must be good forTrump but bad for the US-ally Saudi-Arabia."
- "So... what if... I got it! I got it! Okay, hear me out:
The US is evil and therefore Saudi-Arabia is evil, BUT Trump is honest. The US is evil and does business with evil people, BUT Trump should be praised for his honesty of admitting up-front that the US is evil."
