Fake News



I just saw a news clip on CNN in which a Trump supporter who was protesting against the stay at home orders shouted at a CNN reporter, "You stopped airing the Trump coronavirus briefings and started airing Cuomo's! You're fake news!"

Apparently she doesn't understand that the Trump administration stopped giving briefings after Trump suggested that people ingest bleach to combat the virus.

And that pretty much sums it up, doesn't it?

I really don't like thinking that people who support Trump are either (1) wealthy folks who have profited enormously from Trump's policies, and who couldn't give one gram of shit less about anything else or (2) people who are so fucking stupid that they couldn't find their ass with a gps tracker...but it's starting to look like that might be pretty much the whole shebang.
