The media, Democrat Party, and Hillary! campaign (but I repeat myself) are in a blind panic and are doing everything they can, including outright lying, to demoralize Trump supporters.
So far, they’ve managed to scare the pants off the GOP-e. The Trump faithful are made of sterner stuff, and all this manufactured “controversy” further steels our resolve.
I don't think so, I think the GOPe is in on the act. IOW, the GOPe know the press is lying like a rug, but is playing along as though the reports are accurate - and this is done to improve the illusion that the reports are accurate.
No rational and honest person would believe some of the whoppers the press is getting the GOPe to "go along with."
