You don’t need to trust facts.
That’s what makes them facts.
Additionally, facts don’t tell you anything about anything, outside the fact itself. The sun rose yesterday. It rose today. It doesn’t automatically follow the sun will rise again tomorrow. That’s speculation, based on interpretative pattern recognition. Or to put it another way: “That’s just, like, your opinion man.”

You’re absolutely right, but as long as there are people who DON’T trust facts, it’s probably still worth mentioning now and then.
But have you considered these alternative “facts”?
There are no alternative facts. Only additional facts.
Alternatively there are lies.
