Who cares? Literally EVERYTHING that comes out of this administration is a lie. If they release bad news, it’s only because the true facts were so much worse that even this bad news looks good. It only looks bad to us, because we don’t know how bad it really is.
It’s not even the lies that bother me, I expect that from MAGA, you can’t be mad at a tiger for having stripes. I’m mad at the media, who covers the lies as if they deserve the cover of legitimacy. When Trump declares that we are on the verge of a peace plan with Iran that will settle the whole thing, open the Strait, drop gas prices to 50 cents a gallon, and every American will get a free puppy or kitten of their choice, the media covers it as if it is true, and not just the 40th Iran Peace Plan Pump & Dump in a row. They don’t even bother to investigate if the Negotiation Dream Team of Kushner and Witner were even over there. They just cover it as if they haven’t been lied to a million previous times.
And then we go on Lemmy, and discuss it as if it was ever a real thing, which it never was.
Then we bomb Iran for another fictitious reason, and the pump & dump cycle starts all over again, and the media covers it like this is normal geopolitics, and not at all about Trump manipulating the markets.
