A piece of news or a spoof

I read a post this morning, but I'm not sure it was a piece of news or a spoof.

This post said that Trump claimed to go back to Afghanistan because the old military base is very close to a nuclear base in China, which actually is a walnut production base. The trump team made a mistake about the base just because the Chinese words for nuclear and walnut share a character "核".

If it's a spoof, haha.

If it's a piece of news, you, my friends of learning Chinese, will have a bright future in the USA.

A piece of news or a spoof / Real News or Fake?

To me “a piece of news” doesn’t necessarily imply that the news is true or based on fact. I’d suggest “Real News or Fake?

I read a post this morning, but I'm not sure it was a piece of news or a spoof / factual or fake / a joke.

Ha, ha! I doubt even Trump’s team would be so stupid as to think the Chinese government would place a nuclear research facility near their border with Afghanistan, but I guess anything is possible these days. ;-)

You can also say "a parody" or "a piece of satire" instead of "a spoof", which is less commonly used.

Well done! It's funny because it's impossible to tell whether it's real or not, since Trump and his team have previously booked a wrong venue before. (You can read about the incident here: https://mil.sina.cn/2020-11-08/detail-iiznctke0288126.d.html)

Thank you so much!

I will add the word "parody" to my vocabulary instead of "spoof".

Have a nice day!
