There is not and has never been such a thing as factual truth. Read ten different newspapers and you get ten different opinions. Watch 5 different international news channels with different cultural backgrounds and financial supporters and you get 5 different views on a situation. 

Trump likes to fool the simple minded with that whole fake news meme. It's a simple political tactic to defame the political opponent and it works to an extend. That said just because CNN admittedly have exploited that Russia topic doesn't mean there is no truth to it. It's obvious Putin tried to influence the elections just like he tried in France recently or right here in Germany atm...there are dozens of little networks and organisations involved who mostly support right winged parties, all financed by Putin. He has hundreds if not thousands of hackers working for his cause, just like Trump does, I'm certain. All trying to destabilise certain regions on the planet. Be it the EU or the U.S. . Btw if you haven't noticed yet Trump also works on destabilising the EU And taking part in that Syria war is just one way to do that.

My point exactly. The recent leak shows CNN is spewing mostly BS to push the Russia story. They also mention they know there's some truth to not only Russia messing the the US, but also the US messing with everyone else's elections for a long time. What goes around, comes around.

Look at 100 different international leaders, all are very different in many many ways for various different reasons. Why does Trump have to be a certain way? If the news is different all over the world, and that's ok, then why not the world leaders?

What CNN reports is well known and therefore pretty much backed by facts. I mean the US is trying to put their fingers everywhere since a century at least but surely after WW2. How many wars have they started, how many regimes tried to replace?! mostly without success sadly..

Trump can be how he wants...at least a smaller part of Americans elected him...if they're ok with such behaviour ( most are not) they probably deserve such a leader. I simply couldn't respect someone as my president who can't even formulate complex sentences. Let's just hope he'll stay at least peaceful, although I kinda doubt it with his pubertal temperament.
