Hoax: Donald Trump, Fox News, and the Dangerous Distortion of Truth

[Stalin]

...great book..got it from the local library and read it in a day

even if you adore the malignant narcissus, have a read..your brain will fry

HOAX is a well-written expose detailing the life and adventures of our 45th president, beginning with the day he rode down the escalator. Brian Stelter, the chief media correspondent for CNN Worldwide, shows us all his flamboyance and his penchant for hyperbole and lies. Sean Hannity figures prominently in this story, and in the life of Donald Trump. He is also prominent in the Fox News network, which he often watches for up to 6 hours a day. In 350 pages of revelations and some of Trump's more notable lies, the author points out that Trump's love affair with Fox News has no historical precedent. The TV Network "effectively" produces the president's intelligence briefing, and he goes to the Fox News hosts for advice. Because Donald Trump is hampered by his narcissistic self-absorption, he needs daily affirmations of his fabulous intelligence and his wonderful leadership. Fox News provides it for him.

The author points out that Trump's TV-watching time is coded in his internal schedules as "Executive Time." He adds that some of Trump's most damaging decisions can, arguably, be traced to his TV habits, watching Fox News. He observes, "Trump's hatred for Ukraine seems to have originated with Sean Hannity's show telling him that Clinton had colluded with that country in 2016." The end result of that was his impeachment.

There are numerous examples of the excessive influence that Fox News has over Donald Trump, but one that reveals much is Stelter's observation that "Trump failed to muster a forceful federal investigation government response to Covid-19 because he was too preoccupied with the impeachment trial that he and Hannity both called a "hoax." And then, they used the same word when Democrats raised alarms about the virus! Stelter defines "hoax" as a potent word, because it's an angry and a mean one (as defined by linguist John McWhorter). McWhorter observed to the author, "It's the quintessence of Trumpian self-expression.

So you gave up on your bullshit thread about how Trump's grandfather was an illegal immigrant?

The truth really gets in the way of you horrible people. Guy comes here as a minor and goes through the normal port of entry legally. But brain stem starts a thread screaming from the highest mountain top that his grandfather was illegal!

Have you given up on your claim that I called your wife a nazi?

You did call her a Nazi. We already talked about this and another poster TAT explained it for you more than once. Keep lying.

Of course you insist that Trump must hate Jews even though his own daughter married one and converted to that faith? So typical of a Nazi to have children marrying and then converting to the Jewish faith and then raising their children Jewish. Right retard?

Didn't Joseph and Magda Goebbels encourage their children to be Jewish? And certainly they would have wanted their daughters to marry Jewish men. In your little idiotic world?

Didn't Trump's dad basically finance a new synagogue for a Rabbi friend of his? More typical Nazi behavior!

Another fact that was posted by me on a thread that you obviously did not read.

How many times did you repeat the good people lie? How many times did you repeat the "Jews will not replace us" line even though Trump had nothing to do with it? Lie then repeat the lie over and over again.

A draft dodger at age 16? Why do you care of he did not serve the fucking Bavarian army?

You can call Trump a himself draft dodger. Biden also. But that is not the subject of the thread.

You said he was an illegal immigrant and he was not.

 

[Starcastle]

I have never opined on trump hating Jews.

So why did you use the "Jews will not replace us" quote 50 times in posts? What was the point of that?

To associate that with Trump and all Trump supporters and voters.

Then you said it does not matter if he has Jewish grand children.

Everything you have stood for in dozens of posts suddenly did not happen? Is somebody else using your identity in this forum?

Then you could have made THAT point. But are a mentally unstable person so you outright accused me of saying trump was a nazi and in the ptôses you made an asshole of yourself.

I used the quote because the “good people said it. And I will mention as many times as I desire. And if that lands you in a mental institution, even better for you and also for us.

The “point” of that was to show trump thinks people who say Jews will not replace us are good people.

To associate that with Trump and all Trump supporters and voters.

Not really. Here slowly for the mentally disturbed:

- they were nazis
- trump called them good people
- supporters like you are giddy about the whole thing

Then you said it does not matter if he has Jewish grand children.

Not quite. I said I never said trump is anti semite. I also opined that in general having Jewish grandchildren does not necessarily absolve people of the charge of anti semitism. You are not that bright if you could not figure that out by yourself or perhaps you did not want to.

Everything you have stood for in dozens of posts suddenly did not happen? Is somebody else using your identity in this forum?

You keep making these uncubtantiated claims. If you want to do this correctly first quote me and then opine about me. As of now you have lied several time about what I have said and did not have the character to prove your claims.

Different countries have different laws. You have already been told this.

Trump is a coward and a draft dogger. I seriously do not know how Biden dodged the draft. Care to inform me? Thanks.

You said he was an illegal immigrant and he was not.
