Trump tweeting this morning, ranting that "the enemy" "Fake News" makes up sources, stories




It is my opinion that many of the leaks coming out of the White House are fabricated lies made up by the #FakeNews media.





Whenever you see the words 'sources say' in the fake news media, and they don't mention names....





....it is very possible that those sources don't exist but are made up by fake news writers. #FakeNews is the enemy!

back his every dictate and kiss his backside.

In this topsy-turvy DysTrumpian world that we have now to Trump and his nutters...
"fake news" is 'real' and "real news" is 'fake'.

After all, if his base believes him, that is all that matters.

If it weren't for self pity, he'd have no pity at all!
