Or is it the White House spokesmen plus Trump lying as their standard operating procedure to glorify Trump's many wonderful, yet unreal, "achievements"?
Second,
I don't think there is a Trump story. It's the Washington elite's immune system against any outsider. It would have been identical if it had been Bernie Sanders.
This sort of thing has been going on since at least the 60s. Kennedy, and Kennedy supporters even more so. Then the other Kennedys, RFK, JFK jr. And now Trump wants RFK jr.
But anyone who isn't a part of the machine is going to be attacked by it. Doesn't matter if Trump is a financial genius or a baboon, the result will be the same.

G, with SIG it is trolling. Her constant lying and posting of fabricated stories from many different non-trustworthy sources, manipulated to narrate a falsehood, leaves little doubt of that.
But others like Jack, Rappy, jewelstatefan and the many more here who strike out at perceived liberals, do so according to Andrew Sullivan as pay back. Read a quote from an article called the mole published in the New York. He speaks a bit in the article about Stephen Miller a White House lawyer and spokesperson.
"I feel like I know Stephen Miller, the youthful Montgomery Burns who lectured the lügenpresse last Sunday morning in his charm-free Stakhanovite baritone. I feel like I know him because I used to be a little like him. He’s a classic type: a rather dour right-of-center kid whose conservatism was radicalized by lefties in the educational system. No, I’m not blaming liberals for Miller’s grim fanaticism. I am noting merely that right-of-center students are often mocked, isolated, and anathematized on campus, and their response is often, sadly, a doubling down on whatever it is that progressives hate. Before too long, they start adopting brattish and obnoxious positions — just to tick off their SJW peers and teachers. After a while, you’re not so much arguing for conservatism as against leftism, and eventually the issues fade and only the hate remains."
G, time and time again I see and address posts here that make no sense. They are nothing more than attacks against the truth due to a last man standing mentality. Andrew Sullivan's narrative helps explain that.

yeah, she pulled a stupid. I doubt she meant to say that. It's like Kelly Anne Conway and Bowling Green. But see above.
Oh, I'm sure she didn't mean to say that. There was no taking that out of context though. She backed herself into a corner with that one.
She basically summed up with that little slip what I think about the MSM on both sides of the aisle. It can hardly be called news anymore. It's 95% opinion and 5% fact, if we're lucky. That's why depending on where you're getting quotes you can get two very different stories out of the exact same event.
Jack: Think it through instead of just reacting. SIGNYM obviously gets some clip of a 2nd banana on a 3rd rate tv morning show on an almost unwatched cable news channel that someone chopped up for effect. The clip is without any context. Was there laughing afterwards? Did someone ask her to clarify? Did some say "I think you meant.." and she agreed? Did she just misspeak? SIGNYM can't wait to post it here to prove... what? *Even if she meant it exactly as you think* that the MSM believe they are telling greater truths and Trump is lying? If you have been watching, that is the score - tell me how that's wrong. I love it when any news outlet points out the lies the president of the United States tells and then someone cries that it's biased for doing so. Huh? You don't think that's newsworthy? You don't want to know those things? Or are you just covering for him?
What she says she meant to say:
"Today I said it's the media's job to keep President Trump from making up his own facts, NOT that it's our job to control what people think."
Step back, think it through. It's the weakest of tea, dude. Funny thing, this will increase their ratings.

I think you have it all wrong about Trump. He is as naturally obnoxious as Milo Yiannopoulos and both get away with it, but with some loud protests from a few sensitive people who are offended.
Eventually, just like Milo, Trump will cross a line that even Republicans will be angry about. It is not that Trump is a microbe being attacked by Washington DC’s immune system. It is more like Trump is trying very hard to destroy his own reputation, but he can’t figure out how to do it. If he keeps trying long enough, Mr Trump will succeed in his kamikaze mission.
I wish on Trump the same success on his suicide mission as Milo Yiannopoulos has achieved:

This Obscure News Story, Which Should Be Huge, Shows How Trump Gets Away With Corruption
http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2017/02/this-obscure-news-story-s
hows-how-trump-gets-away-with-it.html
One of the flaws in the design of the federal government is that, while the founders envisioned competing branches of government, unified party control of government can turn those branches into partners who do not check each other’s abuses. A second flaw is that Congress has a diffuse and often-confusing decision-making process that can make public accountability extremely difficult. Both problems come together in a new story that ought to be huge news but will instead be relegated to legislative arcana.
Here is the story. The House of Representatives has refused to investigate either one of the two massive ongoing legal and ethical violations involving the Trump administration: President Trump’s opaque ties (financial and otherwise) to Russia, and his ongoing self-enrichment in office and violations of the Constitution’s Emoluments Clause.
If the House won’t investigate, what happens next? Well, the next-best course of action would be some form of public debate on the matter. This is not nearly as good as a real investigation, since the absence of subpoena power means Republicans can simply deny Trump has done anything wrong while blocking any efforts to acquire the evidence that would prove the case. But at least it’s something.

Does Trump have "ties" to Russia? Its doubtful. In any case there are already three ongoing investigations into "Russia" - including into the presumed "ties" that Trump's close advisors have with Russia - if any -
As far as the "emoluments" clause .... even our former State Attorney General and now Senator Kamala Harris, a staunch Democrat and one who knows a thing or two about the law, says that refers to bribes, not businesses interests (which Trump may not even have in Russia). If there's nothing illegal about it, why investigate? I agree that it looks stinky, but it's legal.

Doesn't mean there's nothing behind the deep state idea.

Hey, maybe all this Milo business will let you guys take a break from throwing the word Nazi around a bit. This will be good. It will give the Jews a break from all of that trivializing what their people went through in your hate speech.

Quote:Trump's tough stance on China wasn't aimed at improving the U.S. bargaining position with China but rather advancing his private business interests. Specifically, the President was fully aware that attacking the One China Policy, a highly emotional issue for the Chinese, would force them to finally grant his trademark license. On February 9, 2016 following a phone conversation with the Chinese President, the White House announced that President Trump would now abide by the One China Policy as have previous Presidents. This abrupt change in course threw off even his most ardent fans. Shortly thereafter the Chinese reciprocated, granting the elusive trademark license. This is a classic case of an Emoluments Clause violation which the media is yet to pounce on. Specifically the President received a gift (trademark) from a foreign government in return for a favorable policy.
