The fact that western media still hungrily gobbles up these empty-calorie "statements" from the WH where Trump literally just denies reality and act like it's credible at all is a good demo of how the capitalist press will bust their asses to warp reality around whatever the president of the united states says lol. The contradictions have been laid so bare and that's why they've moved on to clamping down on the internet; they know damn well that these mouthpieces have zero credibility left.
