Donald Trump said the U.S. military entered California and opened a large flow of water to fight fires, but state officials denied those claims.

    So the complicit press is back to tapdancing around calling the lies he tells lies, I see.

      That’s always been the case.

      They can’t say he lied, because that would be libel and they’d have to prove that he lied.

      Which is basically impossible unless said person has it documented somewhere that they confess to lying.

        This is how we got the Iraq War.

        No one called gwb a liar when he lied.

          I mean the entire UN said they didn’t believe him.

          It had already came out before the start of the war that Colin Powell’s presentation was plagarisized by some kids school report

          That’s why Canada told US to pound sand on invading Iraq.

          No one was fooled except for the US and British people.

            I was talking in the context of the American press. More broadly than that context and I agree.
