The Dotard tweets today:

The Washington Post is far more fiction than fact. Story after story is made up garbage - more like a poorly written novel than good reporting. Always quoting sources (not names), many of which don’t exist. Story on John Kelly isn’t true, just another hit job!

Yet he is a fan of InfoWars, NewsMax, and Breitbart.

In the end, people believe what they want to believe and not what makes sense. Religion is a prime example.

True, but the "alternative facts" need to be presented to them as news for them to accept them as such.

Take the recent case of Obama's presidency. Professional historians have rated his presidency as one of the most successful. IMO, the couple were a class act too.

Yet a very large percentage of Republicans believe that he was the worst president 'ever'. Mostly because of Limbaugh & Co., the same people now telling us Trump is great.

At what, conning his own supporters?

A quick review of Whell’s posts here answer that question with a resounding “YES”.

You are a Trump ignoramus. Your Dear Leader lies with every breath he takes. You believe his every lie. You are incredibly ignorant, unable to separate truth from fiction. You are as disgusting as Trump, and don't deserve to live in this great country. Shame on you for your ignorance and support of this heinous man, who stole this election with the help of odious an ignorant fools like you, Russian trolls and corruption.

History will not be kind to your idiot leader. Fucking moron.
