A Modest Proposal 0
Daniel Ruth offers a plan for a cease-fire in the White House War on Facts. Here’s a bit:
The solution is obvious. Give the president and his team all the fake news they want.
Really now, how hard would it be for the Washington Post, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and USA Today to print a few hundred special copies every day solely to be delivered to the White House and filled with glowing, cooked-up stories and editorials extolling the brilliance, the vision and the magnificence of the Trump administration?
Imagine all of the stories in tribute to the Caesar of the West Wing. All of Trump’s favorite sports teams would always win. Every policy would be a stroke of pure genius. And everywhere the president went it would always be 80 degrees and sunny. And while you may think the Trumps are the first family to move into the White House in quite some time without a pet dog, you can’t deny that unicorn grazing on the South Lawn is a thing of beauty.
