Nice - and deeply disturbing - overview.


Trump’s USA Today op-ed: The real point was to threaten his enemies with violence
A national newspaper publishes an astonishing litany of lies from the president — and that’s not the scary part

By Chauncey DeVega

He is a professional liar of the grandest kind -- the Washington Post estimates Trump has publicly lied at least 5,000 times since he entered the 2016 campaign...
After Trump's election some members of the fourth estate have finally realized that Donald Trump, the Republican Party and their voters are an existential threat to American democracy. It may be too little too late.
Donald Trump has his own state sponsored media in the form of Fox News and other agents of the right-wing echo chamber, playing much the same role that Pravda once played in the Soviet Union.

Meh. Lies = the left doesn't like it when he doesn't repeat their idiotic Marxist interpretation of everything hence any failure to do so is a "lie".

LOL. They estimated the number of times he "lied". And then they accuse Trump of some conspiracy that they basically just made up. Well, they aren't called fake news for nothing.

The president's piece was so dishonest that the paper provided fact check links at the time of original publication, alongside and within.


In addition, on the following day, USA Today then published a lengthy debunking of Trump's op-ed “Medicare for All.”


As usual many of the assertions he made, in “Medicare for All”, were misleading and it was a wildly inaccurate rant.

Can you really blame them for not consuming leftist propaganda media ? Raise the bar.

Neither does the right even though they are just as hypocritical.
