Horse shit.
Nobody lies like trump.
He literally spews a steady stream of non-stop lies every time he opens his mouth.
You cultists all think it's so clever the way he does that then cries victim while all his little loyal subjects stick up for him, but it never occurred to you or him when he first came on the scene, that people wouldn't sit still for that trash.
He thought he'd be able to lie with impunity and the media would have to just let him get away with it out of fear that they'd have their impartiality called into question.
Now you're all mad because the little game isn't working out the way trump planned it.
You say this precedent has started only since trump.... have you ever asked yourself WHY that is?
Has it not occurred to you that it's because trump is the worst and biggest and most habitual LIAR in the history of American politics???
Or do you stupidly and childishly believe that it's just because they don't like him and are trying to be unfair to him?
You trumpers are all such gullible droolers and rubes.
Stop expecting the rest of us to be also.
