History already being re-written only a month after his win. He may well prove to be a snake oil salesman, but to imply that fake news played a big part in him winning is just lol. MSM bias and collusion desperately tried to get Hilary over the line and failed miserably.
Look at the crap posted on Big Footy. Talk to people who think Clinton is 'worse' than Trump. There's a shedload of BS people think is true about Clinton. As I said before, I don't think it's 'fake news' as much as ridiculous spin.
The difference between the two is fake news is the Pedophile claims, or murder claims, or crime claims, or 'she's actually dead/really, really sick' claims, etc. But spin can be 'She took money from Saudis. Saudis also did 9/11.' or 'She voted for the Iraq War. She has Iraqi blood on her hands'. You can justify those statements as factual and of course people spin far worse than that to say '9/11 was an inside job' and 'Clinton is a war criminal'. It becomes non-factual, but when challenged they will reach for those initial facts while calling you a lefty corporate media war-monger elitist shill. Spin spin spin.
As for re-writing history, you may recall the softball interviews Trump got on talk shows which were criticised for not holding him to account for his extreme comments or impractical policies. You can also look at the fact the media rarely discussed just how impractical his policies were. They obviously thought he'd make a bad President. That was obvious to everyone and he directly went against Democratic principles which people had spent decades saying they believed in so consistency suggested they should be against his comments.
The actual 're-writing' going on is the claim that the election was all about the rust-belt. There's been far less comment about how Republicans still voted for Trump despite him being 'socialist' in his protectionism, or despite Republican leaders saying he wasn't fit to be Pres. Immediately they wanted to ignore the fact anti-immigration was the likely major cause, and instead they reached for an explanation friendlier to their narrative - that the poor had been left behind and were just playing up by voting for an outsider. That's much nicer spin than thinking 'maybe a lot of white people want to make America whiter'.
