Good points.Trump shouldn't be giving it credence in the first place. He's making himself, the White House and the USA look foolish by doing so. It's him who keeps prattling on about fake news yet he still peddles it.Agree, but I also think you have to respond or everyone interprets silence as guilt. A Catch 22 really. Alleged is still the operative word, and yes it needs to be dropped by all until some difinitive evidence surfaces. All the speculation is a waste of time, my original point.I think the Trump administration should stop embellishing fake news (i.e. the GCHQ lie - and what now appears to be the Trump Tower wiretapping lie).
