I can do this all day, because the lying and the misinformation shoot out of this administration like water from a firehose.

They are unquenchably dishonest. They are also childish. When a HuffPost reporter recently asked White House officials who suggested Budapest, Hungary, as the site for an upcoming meeting between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, Leavitt responded, “Your mom did,” while White House Communications Director Steven Cheung wrote back, “Your mom.”

Our tax dollars are paying these people to lie to us and act like juvenile jackasses.

Take a seat in actual reality. Things will work out better here.

If you believe in objective reality, if you’re able to use facts to reach sound conclusions, you can clearly see what they’re doing. They’re spinning a web of fantasy that keeps their rabid base in a constant state of anger and agitation while trying to delude Americans into thinking Trump is succeeding magnificently.

He’s not. At all.

If you’re going to pick a reality to inhabit, I recommend the one that’s real because the one Trump and Co. have ginned up is a propaganda palace that will, invariably, come crashing down under the weight of its own hogwash.
