Trump holds seemingly pointless press conference filled with false claims - eviltoast

      He makes good points. I think his error is calling the people at the “press” conference journalist. They are not. They are content creators.

      Their job isn’t to get to the truth, it’s to drive clicks and comments. It’s to enrich them and their employer.

      There are good journalist still out there but since they don’t play to the almighty ALGORITHM they get drowned out.
