“Fake News” Media Use Fake News to Slam Trump
A sampling of news articles:
Item: Writing in the Washington Post on July 27, former CIA Deputy Director John McLaughlin compared President Donald Trump’s exposure of the establishment media at the Boy Scout Jamboree with speeches of authoritarian leaders. Claiming Trump’s speech was “full of derision toward others, self-obsession, political spin, and incoherent rambling,” McLaughlin speculated that the Scouts were only cheering because of “the excitement of the occasion.” “Still, it evoked the sort of cheering for obvious nonsense — or worse — that we’ve witnessed in dictatorships around the world,” he continued. “The kids were being used. If my child had been there, I’d be mad as hell.”
McLaughlin, a member, along with key members of the media, of the Council on Foreign Relations globalist swamp, suggested that presidents should “reinforce the tenets of effective democracy” when speaking to youngsters. Instead, “the Scouts were subjected to Trump’s familiar rant on ‘fake news’,” he said. Like much of the press, McLaughlin seemed especially outraged at Trump’s relentless discrediting of the establishment’s propaganda organs. “Implicit in Trump’s ‘fake news’ message is that only he can be trusted to tell the truth,” the insider claimed, without acknowledging the incredible dishonesty of the national press.
