Oh The Shame! A "Fake News" Journalist Confesses to all the Evil things that he has done to Trump

What courage! After all no other "fake news" purveyor has come forward with such a 'heart felt apology" to our nation's "leader". Not only that, but we who follow all that perverse fake news must look inside ourselves and ask whether we have any culpability for the kind of horrible things that Chicago Tribune columnist Peter Huppke has laid bare in his August 23 column "An Apology to Donald Trump, From the 'Fake News" Media.

And I definitely shouldn't have had you say this during the rally: "I hit 'em with neo-Nazi. I hit them with everything. I got the white supremacists, the neo-Nazis. I got them all in there, Let's see. KKK, we have KKK."

That almost made it sound like condemning hate groups made you the victim. Please accept my apology for that bit. It was callous and wholly inappropriate.

While I'm apologizing for Nazi stuff, I'm sorry I entered your brain and forced you to express sympathy for Jeffrey Lord, a commentator who was recently fired from CNN for tweeting "Sieg Heil!" at the head of a liberal watchdog group.
