In a new interview, President Trump praised his use of the term fake," saying he thinks its one of the greatest terms hes used.
I think one of the greatest of all terms Ive come up with is fake, Trump said in an interview with TBN host and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R). I guess other people have used it, perhaps over the years, but Ive never noticed it.
Trump has often used the term in reference to the media and news coverage throughout his campaign and presidency.
Trumps remarks came as he defended his administration from criticism following the response to the crisis in Puerto Rico. He said the media coverage of the trip was unfair. Pointing to a specific example, he defended tossing paper towels into a crowd at a church during the visit.

That said I know people who believe they don't need to inform themselves on a subject to be an expert.

(25,251 posts)any negative criticism towards him he calls it fake and any of the lies he makes up he calls facts. Believe me!!!!
That's been working for him with his base and it is further supported by Faux News.
Why wouldn't he like it?

(15,805 posts)For a man that lives in a fake gilded fantasy world where women adore him and men are numb with envy, "fake" is his whole lifestyle. Trump thinks he really is the bombastic scripted character he portrayed in his fake TV realty show, so he is an expert on the subject.
