I can see that whatever Trump says today then follows the "echo" of "media around world" (those that have U.S. sources) that last weeks. It's a total disaster of false information, and a lot could be traced directly to Trump or the U.S. in general (there are other "sources" that are establishment but produce falsehoods, it's not that he's alone). But enough people remain confused believing it is true, including people very close to me.
