Beware of Fake News, People

Don't get me wrong -- as a full-fledged, red-capped Trump supporter, I love fake news because it helped Donald get elected.  But it saddens me when our own people take it too far.

In our quest to destroy the facts, we Trumpites must never get too caught up in fake news ourselves because if we over-react to it, we'll call too much attention to the fact that the news really is fake (plus, we end up looking too idiotic). 

One of us actually did this over the weekend

There was a very scary scene in Washington, D.C., yesterday, when a North Carolina man, armed with an assault rifle, walked into a popular pizza place and pulled the trigger. Incredibly, no one was killed, but what makes this story especially notable is the gunman's motivation.

The Washington Post reported that the man told police officers he had come to the restaurant, Comet Ping Pong, in order to "'self-investigate' a false election-related conspiracy theory involving Hillary Clinton that spread online during her presidential campaign."

You see, this fine patriotic man actually believed that Hillary Clinton and her campaign chief were operating a child sex ring from a pizzeria; and by running in there half-cocked, he has helped to debunk this story.

Here is another good example. A lot of Trump Supporters got all excited after seeing this Federal N***er Hunting License:

Well, I called my nearest sporting goods store to get pricing on this, and the lady who answered got very upset.  She was yelling a lot and was hard to understand, so I assumed she was angry because they couldn't keep them in stock.  But then I talked to a friend who knows someone on the Trump Transition Team, and he says that these licenses don't exist -- at least not yet. 

So stay tuned on that one, but for God's Sake, if I can fall into this trap, then anyone can.  So be careful out there and follow this simple rule: Believe everything you read (unless it's anti-Trump, of course), but at the same time, don't believe everything you read.
