Fact checking bollocks spouted by idiots on the interwebs can only be considered a left-wing...

...conspiracy if you have an aversion to facts…oh wait.

As Trump threatens executive orders on the interwebs because they had the audacity, FOR ONCE, to do what they should have been doing for years and managing his propaganda machine account against their TOS, it is unsurprising that having been called out he is having the biggest of temper tantrums. It is as predictable as it is banal. We all know that Trump’s tweet on mail in voting was just a nonsense, materially false, outrageously misleading, shamelessly deceptive, unashamedly dishonest. There is no grey. There are facts and there is lying bullshit and the minute only one of his lies gets called out he goes all in on the silencing conservative conspiracy theory cause liberal deep state and using the power of the office of the President to do so. But then he has to. His entire Presidency is built on lies, dissembling and the big con. No lie too brazen, no policy too craven and no grift too audacious for this administration. How many lies do you want? How many versions of those lies? Trump has used social media to spout an endless stream of shite for years because, the distraction tactics of bullshit, bollocks and chaos is the point. If his propaganda machine does not work for him anymore of course he is going to try and break it, it is what all strongmen do. If his misinformation and disinformation interwebs bubble explodes, he thinks he will be screwed in November. Hopefully, he is right (for once).
