Deception

President Trump is fighting a war against the most powerful people and forces in the world. As is true of all wars, this war must be fought by deception. To be effective the deception must be very convincing. As a result nothing that Trump says or does can be taken at face value. We have no idea who and what he is up against and no way of knowing what he must do to win. The forces he is at war with control the media, which means that everything in the media that is of any importance, and much that is of little importance, is a lie. This is the world we are living in.
