It is no mystery that Donald Trump has a high opinion of himself.
SEE ALSO:How Trump’s four hours in Puerto Rico revealed his Achilles' heelIn May this year, for instance, he took credit for coining the famed economic phrase 'prime the pump'.

'Fake news' popped up at the end of the 19th century and is used "to describe a political story which is seen as damaging to an agency, entity, or person" though that is in no way restricted to politics and "seems to have currency in terms of general news," Merriam-Webster writes.
