Because today ends in a “Y”, Donald Trump lashed out at the media, specifically CNN, then called for a contest between networks, with the exception of Fox News to see who will be the recipient of the “FAKE NEWS TROPHY!” The former reality show star then went on to claim that he is our ‘favorite president’ even though he’s the least popular president in the history of polling. But none of this is weird, k?
“We should have a contest as to which of the Networks, plus CNN and not including Fox, is the most dishonest, corrupt and/or distorted in its political coverage of your favorite President (me),” President Parenthesis tweeted. “They are all bad. Winner to receive the FAKE NEWS TROPHY!”

You can have a Fake President trophy right now if you’d like. No contest needed.

At what point does it become clear to Americans that something is seriously and horribly wrong with their president mentally and collectively work towards institutionalising him? This is a disgrace! Sad!

You’re really delusional if you think you are our favorite president. Laughable! Your approval rating is at an historic low! #unfit #Russia

You don’t like the coverage when it doesn’t bolster you. But that doesn’t make it fake. Try doing honorable actions. Then you’ll like the news. pic.twitter.com/YA7aGDidrj

You’re just looking to walk into CNN’s dressing room during the “contest.”

Speaking of fake news, Fox News’ Insider reported that former President Jimmy Carter is dead even though he’s very much alive.
Sean Hannity, etc, at Fox ‘News’ repeatedly suck up to Trump so he’s found a safe place with the propagandist network. However, some key figures at Fox are finally catching on that Trump is insane.
