The Russian troll farms have cooked up the appropriate line of propaganda for their bots to reintroduce and echo.

And Bitebart was first in line to start the ball rolling again.
The line of propaganda is crafted to appeal to those who have no view grounded in reality, those who are easily led to believe the exact opposite of any evident reality.
Trump/Putin can tell their followers up is down and they'll all chime in that anything else is fake news.
Truly wondrous, …the extent of the indoctrination.
Trump can murder America in the street, (…and he's hard at it.), and yet his followers won't lift an eyebrow.
They're too busy listening to Sebastion Gorka, or Alex Jones or some other equally crazy loon.
