  • This is really interesting:
    Now that Donnie claims (via Twitter) that Putin/Russia want the Democrats to win in the coming elections, the White House has edited out (from their published transcripts and videos) the part of the Helsinki press conference where Putin said that he wanted Donald to win the presidential elections

    Who was the propaganda/fake news medium again?

    I hope noone is opposed that, from this point on, I will only use the term "Ministry of Propaganda" when the White House is mentioned with regards to spreading "news" (like in official WH press conferences and the like)

    • Why not call the White House 'Obama House'? I don't see how anyone would find that objectionable...
      There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

            Sounds fitting ... especially considering what Trump said during his rally in Missouri, yesterday:

                Well, we know for sure that lots of Trumpists prefer Trumps alternative reality over the real one.
                If Trump or someone from his Ministry for Newspeak told them that the colour green is actually red, they surely would immediately believe it

                  • The fact that he asked you if you were just making his point, just shows how much he has been suckered in. Just like in the book.
                    It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple
