This is CNN: Donald Trump is 'gaslighting' all of us
The challenge will be a steep one for journalists and for all Americans, when so much of what comes from the next president has to be checked and double-checked. The first step is to establish when there is a gaslighting operation in progress.
Then comes the battle to hold on to the facts.
Ah, for the good old days of Obama Nation, when there were no battles to "hold on to the facts."

OMG that CNN article reads like parody and they are being completely serious.

We didn't hear about gas lighting with "you can keep your doctor. period", we didn't hear about gas lighting with WMD's, etc.

Only now is the "truth" under attack.

Yeah. I thought it was funny when the election started to expose the MSM for being the political hacks they are. Now it's just sad.

Yeah, we should probably just set them on fire at this point.

The old me wonders what Dan will do to avoid discussing this on his next CS.

Prob something like...I know we tend to talk about the same shiet so I figured we'd discuss carbon omission...

That trip to DC changed him.

4chan hoax theory is based on sending info to Rick Wilson, who supposedly gave the info to Evan McMullin, who gave it to...

Carl Bernstein learned of this intel in August and forwarded it to the FBI. He says it's by former MI6 investigator doing oppo research.

This is not 4chan bullshit, it's worth discussing the conclusions of the research, but the people discounting this as fake on account of 4chan are making a mistake.

It would be pretty effective to discredit any scandalous report, by claiming it came from a lunatic fringe website... :whistle:

Best strategy at this point is just to accept that we know nothing, never will, and should accept a dictator. Oh good, here comes one now. :dance:

Well at least we know why Trump's skin is that weird orange colour now.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.
