This whole 'fake news' thing is really funny isn't it? They've latched onto it to desperately explain and cover up their own propaganda. They fail to realise that one of the biggest reasons they lost the election and no one trusts them is because they're liars and no one likes them.
It's almost like when everybody at a school realises the popular kids are total cunts and stop hanging out with them and the kids that used to be popular try to place blame on anything else except their personalities because it can't enter into their heads that maybe they're just awful people.
The best part is, you know they're still going to get pranked by people like 4chan, because they have no fucking idea how the internet works and simply don't bother to do investigative journalism anymore.
