Donald Trump's Fact Free Universe
Over and over President Trump makes outlandish claims that are easily proven false. This happens so often it is safer to assume that anything he says is false until it is proven true.
Why does he continue to make outlandish statements?
My guess is that Donald Trump has lived most of his life in a universe where people never question what he says. When you live that long in a world where every word you speak is treated like gold, you no longer question whatever comes out of your mouth.
But alternative facts are only facts in Donald Trump's Universe (DTU).
Much like adding "[SIC]" in a quote to identify an original misspelling, we should add "[DTU]" after quoting a Trump alternative fact.
