On Monday morning, popular vote loser Donald Trump declared that any news that reflected poorly on him was, by definition, fake. On Monday afternoon, speaking at Central Command Headquarters at MacDill Air Force base in Tampa, Florida, he accused the “very, very dishonest press” of covering up terrorist attacks. 

And in many cases the very, very dishonest press doesn't want to report it. They have their reasons and you understand that. 

Shortly after Trump delivered the shocking news that the media was in league with terrorists, White House Press Secretary Melissa McCarthy Sean Spicer explained that Trump didn’t mean to say they ignored terrorist attacks, but that they “underreported” them. And to prove it, on Monday evening the White House released a list of 78 terror attacks—apparently compiled by an intern googling “attack” and “Mooslim-sounding names”— which included the heavily covered attacks in Paris, San Bernardino and Orlando, but omitted the recent attack in Quebec, where a white Canadian national and Donald Trump fanboy massacred six Muslims. 

Also conspicuously absent from the list? The Bowling Green Massacre. Apparently the White House felt that atrocity had gotten plenty of media coverage.
