we should say "Con News" when he lies about the facts. E.g., "More Con News" from the White House aka the Rat Trap

"Con News" that his promise that "America will get tired of so much winning"
has instead only driven increased losses across the board since his
"election"?
After the last 2 1/2 years of no growth, increased taxes (for everyone not in the
10% tax bracket) and the unabated cost increases (especially those on fixed incomes)
I was so looking forward to finally winning after 60 years of loosing at every turn to ass*holes.

Hang in there. We won big time in mid-terms and the GOP will end up looking like the Chinese swimmers, in that video, of the wave pool tsunami. They too will get hit with BLUE WAVE in 2020!

Nothing they say is ever related to actual "news" so we shouldn't call it that.

they should tell him that is a lie or call him a liar.
