So you think it's wrong.. but a reaction to something wrong is purely political gaming? Illogical.

  Intent matters. I don't think they were intending to mislead people. I've worked enough in politics and the marketing side of things to know that the conversation about this gimmick went something like: "We can 'fact check' during the debates as a way to increase engagement on Twitter, etc." not like "We can change our Twitter handle to trick people into thinking our falsehoods are facts." And if you believe their goal was nefarious, then congrats: you're playing the gross political game.

    An official party social media account changing it's branding to masquarade as a fact checking service during a televised debate? The intent to mislead is clear.
