Trump's spin is irrelevant to the facts. People who understand the truth should be screaming at the top of their lungs that Trump is a lying sack of shit and explain the truth. People scream about the Democrats not fighting back, and then some of these same people then just roll over and accept that Trump has won a dispute because he spins it that way. This needs to stop. Never accept Trump's explanation or spin on anything. Fight back on everything.
