Trump Claims He Invented the Term 'Fake'

Trump went on to boast about the term "fake." "I think one of the greatest of all terms I’ve come up with is 'fake,'" he said. "I guess other people have used it, perhaps, over the years, but I've never noticed it." It wasn't entirely clear whether he was taking credit for "fake" or "fake news," but he would be wrong in either case, according to CNN

Trump Claims He Invented the Term 'Fake'

Cue "He's right, the word fake did not exist before" 3...2...1

Now there is an earth shaking turn of events!
 
"He did invent the term on the internet Al Gore invented for Obama's 57 states" in 3...2...1
 
It's desperate to say he didn't invent the word fake? Facts aren't desperation.

It's desperate to even bother with bull**** like this, it's petty and trifling.
 
Who the **** cares? And why is this news?

Cuz he's the president and he says crazy things.

So our president may be crazy.

Which should concern the American people.

So its news.
 
I was really just pointing out what better issues there were to focus on here, then just TRUMP,TRUMP,TRUMP...

Which is what people who voted for Trump say every time Trump does or says something that is a bad idea or reflects poorly on his fitness for office.



I'm sure it's just a spectacular coincidence.

Next it will be that he invented school desks so that our children may learn. Trump has no limits to his madness.

Actually Bernie had more of my support till Clinton decided to gut his run all for herself. But thanks to wiki leaks we know she was planning on doing that for some time before it happened.
You can always count on someone manipulative, deceitful and malicious to be as such. Especially when your back is turned.

Then again I grew up with Trump on the TV, he says stupid things all the time. If someone is surprised by what he says or puts up on Twitter without having the intelligence to know better. I would consider them to be a triggered little child, or for them to have been under a rock for the last thirty some odd years.

Either of those two are not good in my opinion.

I like how in 2017 the President can just ridiculous things that are comically, obviously not true and the right-wing stance is that we're just supposed to nod our heads and pretend the emperor has clothes on.

He could say the sky is blue, and you'd make something out of it.

If the sky were orange you'd defend him saying the sky is blue. This is a fun game.

No, since I have clearly already disagreed with something he said...........just as I did with Bush. Democrats on the other hand kill and eat any other Democrat who strays off the reservation by even a word.

He should be embarrassed. Inventing fake pales in comparison to inventing the internet.

So? Al Gore claimed he invented the internet.

You people literally invented an acronym for right-wing politicians who aren't pure enough. Steve Bannon has just started a crusade against insufficiently right-wing Republicans.
 
So? Al Gore claimed he invented the internet.

He didn't claim that actually. The actual statement:

During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet. I took the initiative in moving forward a whole range of initiatives that have proven to be important to our country’s economic growth and environmental protection, improvements in our educational system.
 
He didn't claim that actually. The actual statement:

So, you're saying that it was fake news, like NBC saying that Trump wanted a tenfold increase in our nuclear arsenal and that Rex Tillerson called Trump a moron.

I'm not aware of Tillerson even actually denying that. Any more deflections you want to try?

And that's not a codpiece.

That's all trump.

Biggly!

Trump IS petty and trifling.

So to not bother with it we'd have to ignore him completely.

This is more fun.

You elected a clown. Don't be mad when we point and laugh. That's what clowns are for.

He's getting rid of Obama's failed legacy.

He's certainly wrecking his legacy of mature presidential behavior.

That's all the left has as proof? A legitimate news media would make sure they have real proof BEFORE running a story.
