He relies on Alternate Facts to support his crazy ideas and his crazy supporters don't question it.

Like the "they eat cats and dogs." This came to an abrupt end when he and Vance tried to repeat it during a debate. They were fact checked and Trump or Vance lamely explained that they heard it somewhere.

No question they are getting "Alternate Facts" from people who want them to spearhead their overreaches around the world. If our media can't expose them, then the countries that are being targeted need to know that they have to get their point of view across on legacy American news to reach their supporters.

Trump and Elon Musk are going to try to control the world waging a war of misinformation. Don't count on their supporters to fact check them.
