Trump Finally calls CNN fake news

[Sirk]

another first step to a dictatorship is having a media that will collaborate with the ruling party to deceive the public.

and dude is the poster child for that deception! Lol

1. If you're trying to be philosophical:
fake news has been around forever, and I think you'll find it back in the book of Genesis.

2. If you're trying to be a presidential historian:
I think there will be plenty of discussion about a mysterious birth certificate in the future, when Obama's own cronies can no longer cover for him at the Justice Department.

3. If you're trying to be political:
Nice attempt to deflect from the current debacle... but trying to change the subject does nothing to change reality.

If I had to choose one of the three scenarios that are described above,I would say number three would be closest to being correct.

I think it might be worth noting that one of the first steps to establishing a dictatorship is to discredit the media reporting you

Not exactly.

If you're a real dictator, you don't have to discredit the media... you just kill a bunch of them, and any who are left stop saying bad things.

That's what really happens in a dictatorship.
So, if you want to use words like "dictatorship"... let's use those words accurately.
