I still had some things I didn\u2019t talk about in Sunday\u2019s Trump Derangement International<\/a>, about how the European press have found out that they, like the US MSM, can get lots of viewers and readers simply by publishing negative stories about Donald Trump. The US president is an attention magnet, as long as you only write things about him designed to make him look bad.<\/p>\n

The Guardian is only too happy to comply. They ran a whole series of articles on Sunday to do juts that: try to make Trump look bad. Note that the Guardian editorial team that okayed the articles is the same as the one that allowed the fake Assange\/Manafort one<\/a>, so their credibility is already shot to pieces. It\u2019s the magic triangle of today\u2019s media profits: spout non-stop allegations against Russia, Trump and Julian Assange, and link them when and where you can. It doesn\u2019t matter if what you say is true or not.<\/p>\n

Anyway, all the following is from the Guardian, all on December 23. First off, Adam Gabbatt in New York, who has painstakingly researched how Trump\u2019s businesses, like Trump Tower and the Trump store, don\u2019t appear to have sufficiently (as per him) switched from Happy Holidays to Merry Christmas. Sherlock Holmes would have been proud. A smash hit there Adam, bring out the handcuffs.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s \u2018Merry Christmas\u2019 Pledge Fails To Manifest <\/a><\/p>\n

During Donald Trump\u2019s presidential campaign he talked often about his determination to win one particular war. A war that had been raging for years, he said. Specifically: the war on Christmas. But despite Trump\u2019s repeated claims that \u201cpeople are saying Merry Christmas again\u201d instead of the more inclusive \u201chappy holidays\u201d, there are several places where the Christmas greeting is absent: Trump\u2019s own businesses.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
