Donald Trump has taken his obsession with crafting falsehoods about Democratic nominee Kamala Harris to the next level, penning his own fan fiction on Tuesday about the vice president.

    In case anybody hasn’t noticed, Trump has shifted away from lying in the form of “plausible deniability” or lies that have at least a kernel of reality to them so long as you dig deep enough and just don’t think too hard about it, to literally just making up events about things that other people did that simply never happened.

    Fox news called. It’s their bread and butter all day every day forever. I got so sick of having to do the research my father refused to do as Sean Hamface yelled “truth” at him over the tv. There is almost always a grain of truth that they abuse. You do 30 seconds of “research” and it verifies their claim. You need to actually learn about nuance to discover they are lying by omission on most things. It’s incredibly tiring…

      Fox news seems to have given up on it recently as well. It appears to be outright lies about Harris recently, without any deniablity.

        Hannity, Ingram, Carlson, all those fuckers should be shot out of a cannon into the sun.

        I wish I was religious so I could believe these pieces of garbage would suffer consequences for the shit they’ve caused, but they’ll grow old, stay rich and die “happy” never having to suffer as they have caused on to others.

        Disgusting.

        I’m just saying it’s not just a Trump thing but a specific right wing propaganda tactic and having to combat it is very tiring on anyone involved.
