Trump invented fake news, he's the best fake news inventor in the history of mankind, no one invents fake news better than him.

Pinocchio himself doesn't even come in as a close second.

Trump: "I wonder where my base went.  Why aren't they defending me in this thread?  I hope they're not watching those pesky videos of me lying my #ss off."

Because you can't defend the indefensible. Snowflakes melt with the heat.

He can afford the 'good crack', but I suspect he'd be too cheap to obtain the 'good crack' if such a thing does exist.

He only goes for the best crack. It's unbelievably good. The best there ever was, and it makes for a great gift along with Trump wine and steaks. LOL.

Even his slogan Make America Great Again is not his. He stole it from Reagan.

 

That's how winners roll, you know?

"Fake News CNN is looking at big management changes now that they got caught falsely pushing their phony Russian stories," Trump tweeted June 27, before adding: "Ratings way down!"

The reality TV star-turned-president has a well-documentedfixation on television ratings that predates his time in office, and we've been checking Trump on statements about TV ratings as long ago as 2011.

Since the stakes of television viewership appear to loom large in the mind of the president, we decided to look more closely at CNN’s trendline.

The upshot: Trump is flat wrong

Trump’s claim that CNN’s ratings are down raises the question: compared to what?

Because his tweet made no mention of other cable news networks, we assume Trump is comparing CNN’s current ratings to past ratings.

Television experts we spoke to about how to gauge CNN’s trajectory suggested we compare CNN’s numbers from one year to the next, based on data from the second quarter (in 2017, second quarter ratings went from March 27 through June 25).

To get a comprehensive view, we were told to look at ratings across several benchmark metrics, broken down by audience demographics and viewing times.

Bottom line: CNN is at a five-year high in each of the categories we looked at, according to data provided by the Nielsen Company.

CNN Ratings	Primetime, Total Viewers	Primetime, 25-54	Total Day, Total Viewers	Total Day, 25-54
2017 Q2	1,055,000	371,000	788,000	263,000
2016 Q2	959,000	312,000	627,000	188,000
2015 Q2	560,000	195,000	430,000	138,000
2014 Q2	459,000	156,000	341,000	105,000
2013 Q2	666,000	228,000	475,000	161,000

 

So when it comes to comparing CNN’s current ratings to past ratings, the verdict is clear: They’ve moved up in several major categories compared to recent years.

For its part, CNN called its second-quarter figures a "ratings milestone," with the cable news network tallying a record number of total viewers, and its best second quarter since 2003 in terms of total day viewership among 25-54-year olds.

"CNN just posted its most-watched second quarter in history," a CNN public relations account tweeted in response to Trump. "Those are the facts."

Apparently not even the Polish are too happy to see him. Poor man child. All alone in the playground. 

 

This time they had to bring people in, to provide him with an audience. Oh, the winning!

Donald Trump: Crowds brought from across Poland chant president's name during Warsaw speech

 

Crowds bussed in from across Poland have cheered Donald Trump during a speech in Warsaw.

Repeatedly, throughout a speech in which the president recounted Polish history to the visitors, waiting people chanted "Donald Trump" and repeatedly interrupted him to do so.

Much of the crowd was brought in from across the country, and carried signs saying where they had come from – including "Pila" or "Gorzow" in the west. Other banners featured the right-wing, pro-government Gazeta Polska newspaper.
