His researchers probably check facts, but he may prefer to listen to his spin doctors telling him which conspiracies could win him votes.He's a government minister.

Only when it suits him, because he's a government minister!Don't his researchers do fact checking? Or only when it suits him.

No, he's got cancer.

apologies to him if he ever read this
