Media Loses Mind Over Trump and Koi-Gate Scandal

The media has hit its latest low now blasting headlines about how President Trump disrespected his Japanese hosts and threaten to kill precious Japanese koi by dumping his box of fish food into the pond at Akasaka Palace:

It was a story that seemed to reinforce stereotypes of President Donald Trump: On a visit to Japan, he was handed a box of food for a ritual feeding of carp, and after doling out a few spoons’ worth, he got impatient and dumped the rest of the box all at once.

Initial reports of the food dump — like this early video from CNN — suggested that Trump acted on his own. This pushed the late-night Twitterverse and blogosphere into a tizzy. The website Jezebel posted a story headlined, “Big Stupid Baby Dumps Load Of Fish Food On Japanese Koi Pond.”

One problem: Trump didn’t just decide to dump his food on his own. Video shows he was following the lead of his host at the koi pond event, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.  [Politifact]

You can read more at the link, but it is reports like this that just validate everything the Trump administration says about the media.  So we can now add Koi-gate to the endless list of examples of fake news.

Here is video of the koi-gate fake news event:

I am watching in morbid fascination as all of Trump’s enemies eat themselves… from Hollywood to the DNC… even the NFL.

Is he not the luckiest guy ever?

Could he have possibly engineered this… or was he at the right place at the right time to push normal productive society to call bullshít on the unrealistic yapping idealists, manipulative leftists, and hypocritical busybodies?

Whatever the case, it is a pleasure to watch… with no sign of slowing down.

Too bad They think assasination is the best option. That doesn’t really work out for them… or anybody, really.

But don’t take the word of my crystal ball. Just wait and see.
