Note: I’ve been had. I saw it so many places, I thought it was real. Insert blushing emoticon. I don’t usually fall for this kind of stuff, but the outrageousness of Trump is playing with my head and ability to discern truth from satire! Apparently, I’m not the first to mistake one of Andy Borowitz’s satirical articles for real news:

My original post follows:
This may be old news, but I missed it. I think most of us had come across the story of Chris Christie angrily throwing down a dry cleaning ticket on Donald Trump’s desk, saying “Pick up your own damn dry cleaning!”
But this next part from a New Yorker article, my husband and I thought it must be from The Onion, like even with all the surreal stuff coming out of the Trump mouth and campaign, this can’t be real.

Trump’s press secretary, Hope Hicks, warned the media against making too much of the apparent rift between the billionaire and Christie. “In the long hours of a campaign, emotions can sometimes get a little raw,” she said. “We are confident that Governor Christie will pick up Mr. Trump’s dry cleaning going forward.”
She is being incredibly snarky, isn’t she? Isn’t she?
