Saturday morning for Donald Trump and not a thing in the world to do but attack the New York Times.
Trump dashed off three tweets out of nowhere earlier this morning. Be sure and check the spelling on the second one:
The failing @nytimes has been wrong about me from the very beginning. Said I would lose the primaries, then the general election. FAKE NEWS!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 28, 2017
Thr coverage about me in the @nytimes and the @washingtonpost gas been so false and angry that the times actually apologized to its…..
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 28, 2017
What is up with the word “gas” in that tweet, Donald? Oh, and just in case this massive windbag who calls himself the head of state decides to delete the tweet with the misspelling, we managed to get a screenshot for posterity:
Here’s the last one Trump sent out, and it contains lots of fake news on his part:
…dwindling subscribers and readers.They got me wrong right from the beginning and still have not changed course, and never will. DISHONEST

Dwindling subscribers? Really? Consider this:

That is indeed a verified fact, and it completely undercuts what Trump just tried to use as the logic for how the Times has harmed itself by not treating him fairly. Oh, and the Washington Post is also doing just fine, thank you very much. They added 60 new jobs in their newsroom, so that means the Cheeto-faced alleged president was not wrong just once in that single tweet, but twice. Fake news much, Donnie?
As for the “apology” from the Times to its readers, that’s also complete nonsense. In mid-November, publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr. and executive editor Dean Baquet did post a letter which read in part:
“As we reflect on the momentous result, and the months of reporting and polling that preceded it, we aim to rededicate ourselves to the fundamental mission of Times journalism.”
That’s only an apology in the fervid, disturbed mind of a 70-year-old idiot with the self-control of a toddler.
Thankfully, others on social media also got up early to let the Orange Menace have it:
@realDonaldTrump @nytimes reporting on how you're a dangerous madman isn't fake news- it's the terrifying reality right now

@realDonaldTrump is this just a random raving or is there an article you don't like? You're sounding a little cracked.

@realDonaldTrump @nytimes @washingtonpost seriously? You're attacking journalism in a tweet with TYPOS

@Impeach_D_Trump @realDonaldTrump And just so you know, the NYTIMES did not apologize to their readers over you. That is FAKE News

Trump will be calling his good friend Vladimir Putin later today. The mind reels thinking about what idiocy will be farted all over us on Twitter when that conversation is over with.
