"All this, finally, is why America may soon collapse. Because a POTUS who said a very reasonable thing had that thing transmogrified into contemptible disinformation by two unscrupulous far-right billionaires, and a bunch of corporate media outlets under the thumb of unscrupulous billionaires ran with what they saw as a very lucrative non-story-cum-story."
