Donald Trump’s gorilla channel dupes the media
Donald Trump watches a channel that only shows gorillas fighting. It’s true. We read it on Twitter. Pixelated Boat, the self-styled “Prince of Lies”, shared an extract from Michael’s Wolff’s book on the President, Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House:
“On some days he’ll watch the gorilla channel for 17 hours straight,’ an insider told me. ‘He kneels in front of the TV, with his face about four inches from the screen, and says encouraging things to the gorillas, like ‘the way you hit that other gorilla was good.’ I think he thinks the gorillas can hear him.’”
We know it’s true because no sooner had “Prince of Lies” tweeted it than the New York Times broadcast it as fact:
Newsweek had more.
The Atlantic’s contributing editor Shadi Hamid hooted:
“This is my favorite part of Wolff’s book so far. Amazing for what it says about this administration! (It’s worse than you think!!). So amazing, I can barely even believe it. It’s *literally* incredible.”
Even more incredible than Pixelated Boat’s previous Tweet to the Gorilla TV news:
David Burge nails it: “is that the gorilla turned out to be Trump and the stupid gorilla-obsessed Trump turned out to be the media.”
