Trump Confesses His Whining About Media Gives Press More Publicity, 'But I'll Complain Anyway!'
Source: Mediate

President Donald Trump started Thursday off with a bang, although not necessarily a clear one, as he accused Democrats of a death wish and complained about complaints first thing on Twitter.
Its not entirely clear what death wish is supposed to mean here, but apparently it has meaning in more ways than one, including the dumb democrat abolish ICE groaning and the midterms too. Trump pointed out that Republicans passed a bill supporting ICE on Wednesday and suggests that democrats pay the price at the ballot in November for not.

That message was followed quickly by a second on the favorite topic Fake News Media, which he said is going Crazy with a capital C, exclamation point. He said they make up stories which are total fiction, which is the escape hatch he always offers for fans and supporters who cant reconcile something like kowtowing to Russia with their image of the cowboy fighter man of the people America first boss they want to believe in. They can simply say the media makes up whatever it is they dont like and then carry forward.
