Why did a Fairfax story on a Sydney escort drag in Trump?
The Sydney Morning Herald peddles
more fake news to smear Donald Trump, inserting in a story about a
Sydney escort a completely gratuitous mention of ludicrous claims that
Trump hired two Russian prostitutes.
Let's not forget and ask ourselves who is the buffoon here and it's clearly Andrew Bolt now trying to be Donald Trump's hero down under. Donald Trump like Tony Abbott before him made a fool of himself and has done publicly most of his life which Andrew Bolt is today trying to hide. So it's not at all ludicrous to suggest Doldald Trump has a history of paying prostitutes for other and for himself. Even having others pay them for him. Bolt even acknowledges that probalbility
" THE question now isn’t whether Donald Trump is just a moron or an outright menace who could blow up the world. The question is why a braggart, buffoon, liar, narcissist and sexist with almost no political principles came so close to becoming president of the world’s greatest power." Andrew Bolt
So let's tackle Bolt's questions given we know Trumps self advertised reputation as a global wheeler and dealer
Fairfax pillories Trump. US public cheers him
To Sydney Morning Herald
correspondent Paul McGeough, Donald Trump is a fascist, liar and vandal
who is dividing the US and inspiring massive resistance. But to the
Rasmussen poll, Trump is a leader getting good support from the silent
majority, to judge by the latest figures.
Is Bolt really an Australian or does he just work here? It seems he's just arrived back in Australia and must work. How un-Australian is that and he immediately starts with lying. There are no half measures when it comes to Bolt or who works for News Corp doing. What he accuses Fairfax of doing to Trump is what Bolt is straight into pillorying Malcolm Turnbull. He's doing what he accuses the Left in the USA of doing not supporting their leader. Andrew Bolt spends an enormous amount of energy white-anting Malcolm Turnbull while pointing his finger at others suggesting what they are doing is wrong. Fairfax isn't however American or even in America . Bolt won't call Trump a liar because he works for Murdoch but the NYT, the Washington Post and the majority of others do. It's why Trump is waging a war on the press. The American public virtually ignored his inauguration and greater numbers demonstrated against it so much so White House Insiders Report Trump Is 'Demoralized' No One Considers Him a Real President.

3 days ago - President Donald Trump has set record for receiving the lowest initial rating . So yes Bolt's back running and lying and you can expect more of it.Japan tells Turnbull he's on his own against Trump
What the hell is the "conservative" Malcolm
Turnbull thinking, siding with China against Trump's America? No wonder
Japan has abruptly put Turnbull in his place, rejecting his idea to
have China take the US place in the now-crippled Trans-Pacific
Partnership that Trump rejects. UPDATE: McCrann unloads.
One can predict this self declared fair dinkum Aussie didn't even holiday in Australia and that's the most likely reason for his silence. He couldn't wait to get out of the country. However we are expected to believe this twat with his robotic, pedestrian and weekly job covered by others like Peter BH will snap back on Monday as Australia's public intellectual. He is still on his 5.5 week holiday and the best he can do is advertize himself in the hope his audience hasn't left him. As there aren't many 5.5 weeks should be sufficient to to realize what a bullshitter he is presenting his opinions.

Donald Trump, Sean Spicer, And The George Costanza Rule Of Lying
The News Corp defense is Bolt's defense on lying
"In a seminal episode of the sitcom Seinfeld, Jerry Seinfeld turns to his mendacious friend George Costanza for advice on how to beat a lie detector test. After first comparing the request to asking famed Italian opera star Luciano Pavarotti how to sing like him, George replies, “Jerry, just remember. It's not a lie ... if you believe it.”
Journalists have an understandable hesitance toward using the blunt word “lie” to describe the statements of politicians. But at some news outlets, this hesitance has drifted into acceptance of the George Costanza Rule of Lying: a statement cannot be termed a “lie” unless there is demonstrable evidence that the speaker truly believes it to be false. Since reporters can’t read minds, it is virtually impossible to meet this standard.
White House press secretary Sean Spicer sought to exploit this vulnerability in Monday’s press conference. After he offered a series of obviously false and easily disprovable statements on Saturday about the crowd size at President Trump’s inaugural festivities, many journalists abandoned their typical hesitance and branded his statements as “lies.”
Spicer doesn't want reporters calling him a liar because that would make it impossible to do his job. And he definitely wants to ensure that they don't use that terminology to refer to President Trump. So he used his first press briefing to claim that his statements aren’t lies if he believes them."

Report: Trump Supporters Are Trying To Manipulate French Social Media To Artificially Boost The Far-Right
BuzzFeed News Discovers An “'Agenda … To Get Far Right,
Pro-Russian Politicians Elected Worldwide'” Via “'Chaos On Social
Media'”
BuzzFeed News reported on a secretive online campaign, organized in
the “private chatrooms [of] Trump supporters,” to “create as much chaos
on social media as possible to make right-wing candidate Marine Le Pen
and her supporters in the National Front (FN) seem like the most
legitimate voice in French politics” ahead of French elections.
The manipulation of social media by trolls, shell accounts, and bots
has had a significant impact on Western elections in recent years.
Elections in the United Kingdom, the United States, Italy, and Germany have all been affected by a surge of hyper-partisan social media posts sowing confusion about basic facts to support right-wing candidates. Breitbart News, which also pushes false, misleading, hyper-partisan stories, is undertaking an expansion
into France, Germany, and Italy, compounding concerns that the site
will promulgate misleading or outright fake news to provide a boost to
far-right candidates.
The January 24 BuzzFeed report
investigates “a chatroom called The Great Liberation of France,” an
organized hub for “creating fake Facebook and Twitter accounts to
manipulate French social media users.” In a Google Doc labeled “‘MEGA
GENERAL’ — ‘Make Europe Great Again,’” group members, mainly Trump
supporters, “teach fellow right-wing trolls how to make memes that would
be believable in their country” and then direct “users to 4chan’s
politics message board, 8chan’s The Bureau of Memetic Warfare, and
Reddit’s /r/The_Europe” to “post pro-FN memes and jokes about François
Fillon,” the front-runner for the French presidency. The “Great
Liberation of France” is but one “part of a larger constellation of
private rooms” that are working together to, in the words of one
anonymous member, “pull the next revolution in France”:
