Not only is he a fan of Alex Jones and tunes into InfoWars, he also has connections to a CEO of several fake news tabloids. Fake news for a fake President. Sad!

Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski, the co-hosts of MSNBC's "Morning Joe," alleged Friday that the White House used an impending hit piece in the National Enquirer as a threat against them.

"This year, top White House staff members warned that the National Enquirer was planning to publish a negative article about us unless we begged the president to have the story spiked. We ignored their desperate pleas," Scarborough and Brzezinski wrote in an article for the Washington Post.

Scarborough says he has proof of White House threats earlier this year -- he replied to Dump and said "I have texts from your top aides and phone records."

Critics suggested that if Scarborough and Brzezinski's version of events is accurate, it should be investigated.

"The president's tacit admission of control over the Enquirer's punishing coverage of his adversaries suggests an abuse of power -- a shocking one," said Norm Eisen, a former White House ethics czar.

What's definitely true is this: Dump and the publisher of the National Enquirer, David Pecker, are friends and allies. Jeffrey Toobin documented the mutually beneficial relationship in this week's edition of The New Yorker.

The Enquirer, a supermarket tabloid, frequently promotes the president's agenda.

This so-called President's tweet:
Watched low rated @Morning_Joe for first time in long time. FAKE NEWS. He called me to stop a National Enquirer article. I said no! Bad show

Because the president threatening news people is grounds for impeachment?

Given Trump's railing against "fake news," his close ties to (and positive coverage from) the National Enquirer is, at the very least, funny.

To be fair, the National Enquirer is marketed as fake news.

Is it? They're often sensationalist, sure, but I don't think very many tabloids would say "yeah, we're fake."

When the fuck did National Enquirer ever pretend to be real news? Acting like it's the same thing as CNN knowingly perpetuating a false narrative to harm the presidency is the dumbest fucking thing I've heard today.

Tabloids can only be interpreted as real news if you have absolutely no concept of satire whatsoever

They're basically The Onion but (slightly) less overt with the humor.

And started serving Trump and targeting his rivals when he decided to run for office.

The status of the National Enquirer has absolutely zero to do with it. You still have the fucking President of the United States threatening members of the media in an effort to get them to be quiet.

And if it does get published? That's slander, at best. Good luck.
