      Another things about fake news I've noticed is that some people keep on swearing by it even after the truth comes out.

          Very amusing to see the NYT WAPO and the Guardian ALL allegedly buying clicks from Chinese botfarms according to ALEXA stats. They are hurting bad, I'm glad the White House went on the offensive from the get go, they've definitely got more stamina to outlast the media.

            Might want to use a source though that doesn't copy that trumpist agitprop squawkbox Zero Hedge. Also, might want to look up how Alexa collects statistics on traffic. Because it doesn't. Hint: There's a reason Alexa never uses absolute numbers. Because those would show that its "statistics" are effectively fake.

                  AP FACT CHECK: Trump aide pushes false story of vote fraud

                  Feb 13, 2017
                  By CALVIN WOODWARD, Associated Press

                  "WASHINGTON (AP) — Presidential adviser Stephen Miller peddled discredited theories about voter fraud during a round of TV appearances Sunday that won praise from his boss but brought no new evidence to light.

                  Miller mischaracterized research about wrongly registered voters and spread a debunked claim that busloads of Democrats came into New Hampshire and voted improperly in the November election. His Sunday morning performance on news shows earned him a "Good job!" on Twitter from President Donald Trump, who alleged days earlier that he lost New Hampshire in November only because "thousands" of people came by bus to vote against him."


                  Meanwhile, in the real world,

                  "Fergus Cullen, chairman of the New Hampshire Republican Party for the 2008 election, lashed out.

                  'Miller makes false #magicbus claim, offers no proof,' he tweeted. 'Delusional. There are no bused-in voters.' He also tweeted: 'I will pay $1000 to 1st person proving even 1 out-of-state person took bus from MA 2 any NH polling place last Election Day.'"

                    Cruz’s Obamacare Whopper

                    February 10, 2017
                    Sen. Ted Cruz claimed that “Obamacare is discouraging people from going to medical school.” Actually, medical school applicants and enrollees are at an all-time high.

                      • Deleted on Twitter, not fake though. That's how far the google cache goes: "@GeorgeTakei a bunch of trump fanatics retweeted it to their "...

                        Not really embarassing for him. More showing that where Trumpists walk no other voice shall prevail.

                            See, that is where this pesky 22nd amendment kicks in. Orangeboy, at the very worst, will stay till 2024. I will bet that "media" will last longer than that. As for stamina? Orangeboy did not last three weeks before he had to go on a campaign rally to get recharged. Are we saying we will have 2020 campaign rallies every 3 weeks now?
