KoiGate


For John, BLUFIf President Trump cured cancer he would be denigrated for messing with Obamacare by reducing total payments to Oncologists.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




From Pajama Media, by Reporter Patrick Poole, on 6 November 2017.

Here is the lede plus four:

One of the contributing factors to Donald Trump's election last year was the widespread perception that the media elites were completely detached from the rest of the country.  Many see the media, with its credibility shredded, alternate between reckless mishandling of the truth and pathological lying.

Take, for instance, an entirely manufactured controversy taken from President Trump's current visit to Japan.

An otherwise uneventful photo op with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been falsely spun by the White House press corps as a massive diplomatic blunder.

During the photo op, Trump and Abe were feeding koi in a pond below the balcony with spoons.

After several spoonfuls, PM Abe dumps his box of fish food into the pond. Trump follows in kind.

What fired this off was the following tweet from the Pool Reporter, Mr Justin Sink (@justinsink):
Trump and Abe spooning fish food into a pond. (Toward the end, @potus decided to just dump the whole box in for the fish)
Well, it seems President Trump was only following suit.  Prime Minister Abe set the precedent.
