      This is the funniest thing I've ever read.

      So his own staff is planting stories in the media so Trump has good news to read about himself …

      "If there was not enough favorable coverage available, Trump’s aides would plant favorable stories in conservative media."

      "And so Trump’s staff essentially outsources the job of circulating pro-Trump alternative facts to the right-wing media in order to dissuade the president from doing it himself and thereby tarnishing his brand. The president is therefore not only the subject but also the object of his own staff’s propaganda campaign."
