let's remember that "fake news" last year meant totally fabricated news only to gain clicks and therefore ad revenue
Trump and his gang have successfully diluted the term so that now the general population believes that a professional journalistic medium has the same informational value as some idiot in his basement with one domain and a wordpress blog. If not less.
Examples for this brainwashing can be seen on GFY on a daily basis - also right in this thread.
According to at least one member of the republican party there is only one solution: listen to Trump cause he is the only source for the truth
Now Trump has an unprecedented list of lies within the shortest timeframe - just like mentioned above the thing "that happened last night in Sweden". Nothing happened last night in Sweden but how many of the people in that room will go home and check if really something happened last night in Sweden. And even if they do and find nothing, in their minds it will be because the "evil media" is hiding it from them.
But Trump will protect them from what happend in Sweden and the Bowling Green Massacre and all will be good - just don't question him in his decisions, how absurd they may be.
This is exactly what happened in 1933.
And please note that in no way I am implying that Trump will round up all Muslims and Mexicans next week and start gassing them.
But if there ever was a time to read 1984 or V for Vendetta, then it is now
