(99,710 posts)He received eight percent of the vote. That is less than any major party candidate in history when his opponent was white. He can't handle inconvenient facts.

(4,407 posts)It is obviously a reaction to the NYT article saying he didn't understand the implications of placing Bannon on the NSC. What they say is true... although he attacks the Times regularly, he still craves their approval like a NY socialite looking for a picture of himself.
The WaPo helped save us from Nixon, its up to the NYT to keep exposing Trump for who he really is. Their role is significant.

(5,271 posts)If he thinks he saw thousands of Musims cheering 9/11, thinks he saw 1.5 million in DC in the sparse mall and in the empty bleachers along the parade route, or believes millions of undocumented immigrants are on voter registration rolls, we must respect those pronouncements as HIS truth and not lies.
Media should have asked if that logic doesn't imply Trump is delusional

getting him away from the tv.
He watches Bill O'Reilly and Joe Scarborough, and who
know what else.
Thus, the whole world for him is made up of hate and alternative
facts.
