It's Rupert "Fucking" Murdoch, for God's sake

This hand wringing by the MAGATs that the story in the Wall Street Journal is "fake news" by the "media" to bring Trump down makes me feel like I'm either living on another planet, or they are.

Murdoch owns Fox News and is a frequent guest at the Trump White House. Almost two thirds of Trump's cabinet worked there as anchors and analysts.

OK, if it was the Washington Post, the NY Times, CNN or, God forbid, MSNBC. But Murdoch's Wall Street Journal, come on. give me a break.

Who would have ever thought that Trump would sue Murdoch for defamation to the tune of $10 Billion.

I just can't get my head around how anyone could believe Mudoch would make up a story to destroy Donald Trump.

It's all a fucking Russian Doll of distractions.

It has got to be significant and bad for Trump..

Trump posted about discovery being bad for Murdoch, but has Trump even given a thought to discovery which might be aimed at him? He doesn't care because he will delay discovery for years and then drop the suit. As president he'll argue he's too busy to answer deposition requests. He's got the headlines and his rabid followers believe that Murdoch published fake news. He has accomplished much.
