All kinds of lies and other garbage today:
It's sort of remarkable that we treat as normal the president's sharing false memes on Twitter, but, in this case, that it's false information about *government programs* kicks it up a notch. https://t.co/H0afwDoIpg

Trump retweeted a claim this morning that "Illegals can get up to $3,874 a month under Federal Assistance program[s]." Not only is this based on a document about a refugee family (not illegal immigrants), but the case was in Canada, not in the U.S. pic.twitter.com/LZ6E6k3qDb

– Retweeted a fake Mike Pence

– Retweeted dishonest criticism of a Hillary Clinton joke— Daniel Dale (@ddale8) November 28, 2018
"Donald Trump is a president who acts like an Internet troll. He finds nuggets, shapes them to his liking and then shares them. Facts, context and fairness are secondary concerns — if they are concerns at all."https://t.co/k4vbEAIgpU

Last 24 hours, Trump has:
-Suggested Clinton campaign emails may not have actually been stolen (a nod to Seth Rich conspiracy)
-Cited Jerome Corsi as a “major player” whose word can be trusted over Mueler
-Accused his own deputy AG of treason— Kyle Cheney (@kyledcheney) November 28, 2018
Sad!
