It must be Tuesday: Trump complains about, shares fake news
President Trump attends a Greek Independence Day celebration in the East Room of the White House on Monday. By Philip Bump Philip Bump National correspondent focused largely on the numbers behind politics Email Bio Follow March 19 at 10:13 AM It may not be new, but it’s still remarkable that one of President Trump’s regular tweets complaining about the media sitting atop a clip of Fox News’s Sean Hannity.
Let’s instead focus on the tweet above, the claim that the “Fake News Media” has never been more “Dishonest” or “Corrupt.” That purveyors of what Trump calls “fake news” are enemies of the people and the country.pic.twitter.com/QxJBMTAZqG “Those are fair points. If you can’t prove something is true you shouldn’t claim that it is. If you don’t like the president’s policies, argue you against them. Offer a better alternative. Don’t claim that he isn’t really the president. That doesn’t help the country.”
“Somehow, though, Democrats learned the opposite lesson. And so for three years they have pushed their own far more harmful conspiracy theory of Russian collusion. This was all invented, as you know, by the Clinton campaign for short term political gain during the race." “Instead, Fusion pitched its lies to government officials. Fusion founder Glenn Simpson met with Bruce Ohr at the Department of Justice. Christopher Steele met with Jonathan Winer at the State Department. Weiner spread the information to his colleagues. Eventually even President Obama and Jim Comey were briefed on the dossier. Never has unverified opposition research in a presidential campaign reached higher levels of government.
After a brief interlude in which he disparages those who published the dossier, Carlson returned to the theme of the damage it did. Page had been on the FBI’s radar for years, after he was identified by a suspected Russian spy as a possible mark. Early in 2016, the FBI interviewed Page, not for the first time, though it’s not clear why.
