Major article in New York Times today discusses the cost of environmental damage in China and how it is RAPIDLY GROWNG! Rest of World pays.

Just got home, watching the news, and every story is bad about the U.S. Someday we will return to being great again, but we need leadership!

Remember this, the worst doctors (by far) are celebrity doctors. If you see their names, or read about them in the newspapers, stay away!

I hear a failing New York newspaper is going to publish one of my old cell phone numbers. So original - just one of many!

I truly LOVE all of the millions of people who are sticking with me despite so many media lies. There is a great SILENT MAJORITY looming!

Wow, CNN just said that Donald Trump won the DEBATE, connected best with audience. Also, Time, Drudge, Newsmax, N.Y.Times and more!

It is a shame that the biased media is able to so incorrectly define a word for the public when they know that the definition is wrong. Sad!

The failing @ nytimes has been wrong about me from the very beginning. Said I would lose the primaries, then the general election. FAKE NEWS!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jan 28, 2017

Somebody with aptitude and conviction should buy the FAKE NEWS and failing @ nytimes and either run it correctly or let it fold with dignity!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Feb 9, 2017

The failing @ nytimes does major FAKE NEWS China story saying 'Mr.Xi has not spoken to Mr. Trump since Nov.14.' We spoke at length yesterday!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Feb 16, 2017

Leaking, and even illegal classified leaking, has been a big problem in Washington for years. Failing @nytimes (and others) must apologize!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Feb 24, 2017

FAKE NEWS media knowingly doesn't tell the truth. A great danger to our country. The failing @nytimes has become a joke. Likewise @CNN. Sad!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Mar 7, 2017

Don't let the FAKE NEWS tell you that there is big infighting in the Trump Admin. We are getting along great, and getting major things done!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Mar 18, 2017

Despite what you have heard from the FAKE NEWS, I had a GREAT meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel. Nevertheless, Germany owes.....

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jun 13, 2017

The Fake News Media has never been so wrong or so dirty. Purposely incorrect stories and phony sources to meet their agenda of hate. Sad!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jun 28, 2017

The failing @nytimes writes false story after false story about me. They don't even call to verify the facts of a story. A Fake News Joke!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jul 1, 2017

My use of social media is not Presidential - it’s MODERN DAY PRESIDENTIAL. Make America Great Again!

Sean Spicer is a wonderful person who took tremendous abuse from the Fake News Media - but his future is bright!

Despite the Fake News Media in conjunction with the Dems, an amazing job is being done in Puerto Rico. Great people!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Oct 4, 2017

Wow, so many Fake News stories today. No matter what I do or say, they will not write or speak truth. The Fake News Media is out of control!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Oct 22, 2017

It is finally sinking through. 46% OF PEOPLE BELIEVE MAJOR NATIONAL NEWS ORGS FABRICATE STORIES ABOUT ME. FAKE NEWS, even worse! Lost cred.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Nov 15, 2017

It is actually hard to believe how naive (or dumb) the Failing @nytimes is when it comes to foreign policy...weak and ineffective!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jan 17, 2018

Despite some very corrupt and dishonest media coverage, there are many great reporters I respect and lots of GOOD NEWS for the American people to be proud of!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Mar 26, 2018

So much Fake News. Never been more voluminous or more inaccurate. But through it all, our country is doing great!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · May 26, 2018

Unlike what the Failing and Corrupt New York Times would like people to believe, there is ZERO disagreement within the Trump Administration as to how to deal with North Korea...and if there was, it wouldn’t matter. The @nytimes has called me wrong right from the beginning!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · May 31, 2018

Iger, where is my call of apology? You and ABC have offended millions of people, and they demand a response. How is Brian Ross doing? He tanked the market with an ABC lie, yet no apology. Double Standard!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jul 22, 2018

I had a GREAT meeting with Putin and the Fake News used every bit of their energy to try and disparage it. So bad for our country!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jul 23, 2018

The Amazon Washington Post has gone crazy against me ever since they lost the Internet Tax Case in the U.S. Supreme Court two months ago. Next up is the U.S. Post Office which they use, at a fraction of real cost, as their “delivery boy” for a BIG percentage of their packages In my opinion the Washington Post is nothing more than an expensive (the paper loses a fortune) lobbyist for Amazon. Is it used as protection against antitrust claims which many feel should be brought?

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jul 25, 2018

What kind of a lawyer would tape a client? So sad! Is this a first, never heard of it before? Why was the tape so abruptly terminated (cut) while I was presumably saying positive things? I hear there are other clients and many reporters that are taped - can this be so? Too bad!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Aug 16, 2018

THE FAKE NEWS MEDIA IS THE OPPOSITION PARTY. It is very bad for our Great Country....BUT WE ARE WINNING!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Aug 30, 2018

CNN is working frantically to find their “source.” Look hard because it doesn’t exist. Whatever was left of CNN’s credibility is now gone!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Sep 5, 2018

Does the so-called “Senior Administration Official” really exist, or is it just the Failing New York Times with another phony source? If the GUTLESS anonymous person does indeed exist, the Times must, for National Security purposes, turn him/her over to government at once!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Sep 7, 2018

The Woodward book is a scam. I don’t talk the way I am quoted. If I did I would not have been elected President. These quotes were made up. The author uses every trick in the book to demean and belittle. I wish the people could see the real facts - and our country is doing GREAT!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Nov 17, 2018

The New York Times did a phony story, as usual, about my relationship with @VP Mike Pence. They made up sources and refused to ask me, the only one that would know, for a quote I can’t imagine any President having a better or closer relationship with their Vice President then the two of us. Just more FAKE NEWS, the Enemy of the People!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Nov 21, 2018

You just can’t win with the Fake News Media. A big story today is that because I have pushed so hard and gotten Gasoline Prices so low, more people are driving and I have caused traffic jams throughout our Great Nation. Sorry everyone!

“The American Media has changed forever. News organizations that seemed like a big deal are now extinct. Those that remain have now degraded themselves beyond recognition, like the New Yorker - or they’ve been purchased by Jeff Bezos to conduct unregistered lobbying for Amazon, like the Washington Post. It’s hard to remember that not so long ago America had prestige media outlets, but not anymore.” @TuckerCarlson The Fake News Media is the true Enemy of the People!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Mar 19, 2019

The Fake News Media has NEVER been more Dishonest or Corrupt than it is right now. There has never been a time like this in American History. Very exciting but also, very sad! Fake News is the absolute Enemy of the People and our Country itself!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · May 20, 2019

The Failing New York Times (it will pass away when I leave office in 6 years), and others of the Fake News Media, keep writing phony stories about how I didn’t use many banks because they didn’t want to do business with me. WRONG! It is because I didn’t need money. Very old

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jun 3, 2019

London part of trip is going really well. The Queen and the entire Royal family have been fantastic. The relationship with the United Kingdom is very strong. Tremendous crowds of well wishers and people that love our Country. Haven’t seen any protests yet, but I’m sure the Fake News will be working hard to find them. Great love all around. Also, big Trade Deal is possible once U.K. gets rid of the shackles. Already starting to talk!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jun 13, 2019

I meet and talk to “foreign governments” every day. I just met with the Queen of England (U.K.), the Prince of Whales, the P.M. of the United Kingdom, the P.M. of Ireland, the President of France and the President of Poland. We talked about “Everything!” Should I immediately call the FBI about these calls and meetings? How ridiculous! I would never be trusted again. With that being said, my full answer is rarely played by the Fake News Media. They purposely leave out the part that matters.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jul 21, 2019

The Washington Post Story, about my speech in North Carolina and tweet, with its phony sources who do not exist, is Fake News. The only thing people were talking about is the record setting crowd and the tremendous enthusiasm, far greater than the Democrats. You’ll see in 2020!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Aug 10, 2019

Never has the press been more inaccurate, unfair or corrupt! We are not fighting the Democrats, they are easy, we are fighting the seriously dishonest and unhinged Lamestream Media. They have gone totally CRAZY. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Aug 13, 2019

ALL THE NEWS THAT’S NOT FIT TO PRINT! “The New York Times is no longer the paper we grew up with. It is no longer a news organization. It is now an agenda driven organization out to change the Country (for the worse!).” Michael Goodwin, Highly Respected New York Post Columnist.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Sep 15, 2019

Can’t believe the @washingtonpost wrote a positive front page story, “Unity Issue Has Parties Pointing To Trump. GOP Goes All In, While Democrats Clash Over Ideology & Tactics. Mr. President, We Are With You The Entire Way. REPUBLICANS Have....Coalesced Around Trump.” Then, on top of it all, Kathleen Parker, of all people, wrote “In Case You Were Wondering, Trump Won The Debate.” True, but what is going on at the @washingtonpost? NOT Fake News!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Sep 21, 2019

The LameStream Media had a very bad week. They pushed numerous phony stories and got caught, especially The Failing New York Times, which has lost more money over the last 10 years than any paper in history, and The Amazon Washington Post. They are The Enemy of the People!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Sep 27, 2019

Obama loving (wrote Obama book) Peter Baker of the Failing New York Times, married to an even bigger Trump Hater than himself, should not even be allowed to write about me. Every story is a made up disaster with sources and leakers that don’t even exist. I had a simple and very..

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Oct 6, 2019

Good job, I must say, by Bob Woodward on “Deface the Nation.” The CBS no name host(ess), and other guest, Peter Baker of The Failing New York Times, were totally biased, boring and wrong (as usual), but Woodward was cool, calm and interesting. Thank you Bob!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Oct 9, 2019

The Do Nothing Democrats are Con Artists, only looking to hurt the Republican Party and President. Their total focus is 2020, nothing more, and nothing less. The good news is that WE WILL WIN!!!!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Mar 25, 2020

I hear that Fake News CNN just reported that I am isolated in the White House, wondering out loud, “when will life return to normal?” Does anybody really believe that? There was no leak, they made it up – they are CORRUPT & FAKE NEWS I have been packed all day with meetings, I have no time for stupidity. We’re working around the clock to KEEP AMERICA SAFE!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Mar 28, 2020

One of the reasons that Fake News has become so prevalent & far reaching is the fact that corrupt “journalists” base their stories on SOURCES that they make up in order to totally distort a narrative or story. When you see, “five sources say”, don’t believe the story, it is very often FAKE NEWS. Lamestream Media should be forced to reveal sources, very much as they did in the long ago past. If they did that, the media would be trusted again, and Fake News would largely be a thing if the past!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Apr 11, 2020

When the Failing @nytimes or Amazon @washingtonpost writes a story saying “unnamed sources said”, or any such phrase where a person’s name is not used, don’t believe them. Most of these unnamed sources don’t exist. They are made up to defame & disparage. They have no “source” Does anyone ever notice how few quotes from an actual person are given nowadays by the Lamestream Media. Very seldom. The unnamed or anonymous sources are almost always FAKE NEWS.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · May 22, 2020

.@deanbaquet is to be seriously respected. He has long been considered one of the dumbest men in the world of journalism, and he became Executive Editor of the Failing New York Times. Not easy to do. He has given up on “figuring Trump out”. Called it all wrong from the....

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jun 7, 2020

Colin Powell was a pathetic interview today on Fake News CNN. In his time, he was weak & gave away everything to everybody - so bad for the USA. Also got the “weapons of mass destruction” totally wrong, and you know what that mistake cost us? Sad! Only negative questions asked.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Aug 1, 2020

Peggy Noonan, a “Concast” MSDNC @WSJ puppet, doesn’t have a clue, and hasn’t for many years. Never got the “Trump thing”. She plays right into the hands of the stupid people!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Oct 6, 2020

Did anyone get to see that absolute “Joke” of a Town Hall interview that Joe Biden did with Concast @NBCNews , hosted by Lester Holt? What a disgrace to our Country that FREE public airwaves can be used that way. All SOFTBALLS. A big FIX. Time should be paid by the corrupt DNC!

@realDonaldTrump · Twitter · Jan 3, 2021

Something how Dr. Fauci is revered by the LameStream Media as such a great professional, having done, they say, such an incredible job, yet he works for me and the Trump Administration, and I am in no way given any credit for my work. Gee, could this just be more Fake News?

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Truth Social · Oct 10, 2024

A giant Fake News Scam by CBS & 60 Minutes. Her REAL ANSWER WAS CRAZY, OR DUMB, so they actually REPLACED it with another answer in order to save her or, at least, make her look better. A FAKE NEWS SCAM, which is totally illegal. TAKE AWAY THE CBS LICENSE. Election Interference.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Truth Social · Oct 14, 2024

Even 60 Minutes and CBS, in order to protect Lyin' Kamala, illegally and unscrupulously replaced an answer she had given, which was totally "bonkers," with another answer that had nothing to do with the question asked.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Truth Social · Oct 16, 2024

Great job by Bret Baier in his Interview with Lyin' Kamala Harris. She has a massive and irredeemable case of TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME - So bad, in fact, that she is barely able to talk about any subject other than the man who had the best economy ever, the strongest border in history, and who just got the UNANIMOUS ENDORSEMENT OF THE U.S. Border Patrol, ME!

Donald J. Trump

We brought the price of Eggs back to what they were supposed to be. When I took over on January 20th, the Fake News was screaming that, “Egg prices have gone through the roof, quadrupled,” they said. Now they’re plentiful, and inexpensive. “Thank you President Trump!”

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Truth Social · Jul 22, 2025

We had the Greatest Six Months of any President in the History of our Country, and all the Fake News wants to talk about is the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Truth Social · Jul 26, 2025

Wow, “Concast’s” NBC is down in viewership almost 28% this year. Their programming is terrible, their management even worse. They are an arm of the Democrat Party, and should be held accountable for that. Likewise, Fake News ABC!!! MAGA

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Truth Social · Jul 28, 2025

The Fake News is reporting that I am SEEKING a “Summit” with President Xi of China. This is not correct, I am not SEEKING anything! I may go to China, but it would only be at the invitation of President Xi, which has been extended. Otherwise, no interest! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Truth Social · Aug 7, 2025

Should be number ONE. New York Times RIGGED IT??? Selena is great!

Donald J. Trump

The Fake News will say that it is a big loss for President Trump to host so many great European Leaders at our beautiful White House. Actually, it is a great honor for America!!!

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Truth Social · Aug 17, 2025

If I got Russia to give up Moscow as part of the Deal, the Fake News, and their PARTNER, the Radical Left Democrats, would say I made a terrible mistake and a very bad deal. That’s why they are the FAKE NEWS! Also, they should talk about the 6 WARS, etc., I JUST STOPPED!!! MAGA

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump · Truth Social · Aug 24, 2025

Except what is written and broadcast in the Fake News, I now have the highest poll numbers I’ve ever had, some in the 60’s and even 70’s. Thank you. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!

I am rescuing the American Spirit by making America the “HOTTEST” Country in the World. Today Bret Baier has a GREAT Book out about another strong President, Teddy Roosevelt. Go out and get, “To Rescue the American Spirit: Teddy Roosevelt and the Birth of a Superpower.” It is really good!
