Donald Trump began his first full week as US president firmly on the defensive, after millions of Americans took to the streets to protest against his election and the White House came under fire for brazenly lying to the public.

Rattled by the nation’s biggest political demonstrations since the Vietnam war, Trump and his aides spent an extraordinary first weekend in office falsely claiming that record numbers of people had attended his swearing-in on Friday.

Trump’s press secretary, Sean Spicer, used his first White House briefing to shout at journalists about what he incorrectly termed “deliberately false reporting” on Trump’s inauguration, declaring: “We’re going to hold the press accountable.”

1. This is going to be a lot of fun, so I've changed my avatar accordingly

We all know how far "are you going to believe me or your lying eyes?" gets a faithless husband caught in bed with a floozy. It's going to be exactly the same with this bunch.

The "news" media created this piece of shit and it's going to be interesting to see how long they can continue to prop him up as they, themselves, become objects of common derision, the way Pravda was in the USSR in their waning days.
