The entire Trump administration is nothing but a propaganda machine. Nothing they say can be trusted. Nothing.

No, he wasn't brainwashed. He chose to listen to obviously fallacious propaganda.

The current administration is nothing but a bunch of fear merchants. Everything they do is presented in terms of that, if they can't proceed with a given program, the entire country will collapse. It's all total nonsense.

I’m serious. This REALLY infuriates me. @nbcnews.com @cbsnews.com @cnn.com Do your job. You failed to lift this up in 2024. If farmers are hurting, explain why and who is to blame. And remind Americans that we paid BILLIONS for Trump’s first tariff blunder. It’s so irresponsible to ignore this.
