Watching Trump flood the zone with action and mind-spinning ideas (e.g. Greenland, Panama, Canada), so his critics don't know which way to aim their fake news, is glorious.
The fake news only works when they can all obsessively report the same fake stuff. Repetition is the key variable in their brainwashing. If Trump makes them change their focus five times per day, the fake news can't cover the new stuff and also repeat the old stuff. Not enough time in the day.
Trump found a way to beat the fake news: Overwhelm it.

The Panama Canal is obviously very strategically important to the US, and of course China is involved there.
