    It literally doesn’t matter if they’re good or not. His base doesn’t care, and it really feels like nobody else does either. The press just finks out with “Trump claims” headlines that quote the lies verbatim. All they need is the principal mouthpiece and the fourth estate does the rest.

    Karoline Leavitt actually stuck around a pretty long time, by Trump Press Secretary standards. Maybe she gets a thrill out of MAGA twisting themselves into knots to make whatever she says feel true.
