Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Monday that he doesn't believe that most news is "fake news," a view that President Trump often tweets about.
"My view is that most news is not fake, but I do try to look at a variety of sources," McConnell said at a Chamber of Commerce event in Louisville, Kentucky. He was appearing with Treasury secretary Steven Mnuchin to talk about overhauling the nation's tax code, a top White House and Senate priority.
President Trump has tweeted about "fake news" over 100 times since January, according to the Trump Twitter Archive.

I wonder if Mo Brooks and Chris McDaniel agree with McConnell regarding the reporting of their records during their Senate primary races.

Mitch McConnell says most news "is not fake"
So now that you admit some news is
fake lies, how are we supposed to know what news IS NOT
FAKE lies?
Until we know what news is not fake lies, we'll have to assume it's all fake lies.

Thomas Jefferson authored our Declaration of Independence from oppressive government power over individuals at the age of 33.
Where are the youngish "millennials" who understand the ideas of liberty enough to step up to leadership of the United States House and Senate?
