A recent letter claims the so-called “anti-Trump media” are acting as a propaganda tool (“Anti-Trump media does grave disservice to all,” Star-Advertiser, May 14). Anyone who does a little checking recognizes the reality: the media are reporting correct facts. However, there are people so ensnared by the Donald Trump cult that they are unable or unwilling to challenge his lies.
Like the whoppers that the 2020 presidential election was stolen, or that he wants to help working-class people. The first was shown false by 62 election lawsuits that found no evidence of fraud. The second? Just read the papers and see the huge cuts Trump wants to make to Medicaid and Social Security and other programs for working-class people.
The important issues before us include providing health care to people who desperately need it, and defending the U.S. against malevolent foreign adversaries. Living on a diet of lies is not going to help achieve these goals.
