“Fake News” a Two-Way Street — Origin Can Be Either or Both Sides

Trump Base: Loyal to the last drop

Trumpspeak: Trump spokesperson Kellyanne Conway coined an instant classic on Meet the Press two days after the inauguration. White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer, she said, wasn’t telling falsehoods when he told at least four of them during his first press briefing, as Chuck Todd insisted he had. “Don’t be so overly dramatic about it, Chuck,” said Conway. Spicer, she explained, was simply giving “alternative facts.”

Alt-right:  Trump’s people didn’t coin the term “alt-right.” That came from Richard Spencer, the white supremacist who shouted “Hail Trump! Hail our people!” to Nazi salutes at a confab last November. Trump’s top man Steve Bannon did far more than Spencer (or his hip-sounding prefix) to inject “alt-right” into mainstream discourse. When Bannon headed up the far-right Breitbart News, he boasted that the site had built “the platform for the alt-right.” Bannon is now bringing even more rabid 

Breitbart types to work in the White House.

B/L is that we haven’t see the last of this BS. As they say, stay tuned and hang on tight — we have a long, long way to go.
