  1. Don't believe anything the media tells you. They have it in for every party possible.

    You can't have fake news when Fox News is legally entertainment. Reality TV is just more fake news. The simple fact is, it will always be cheaper and easier to fake something than to spot fakes, and the technology is advancing so fast its becoming cheap to make any kind of fake imaginable. Can't buy me love, and can't buy me genuine trust.

  3. Everything is fake news.
    You need to go by your own gut instinct not by some flog in the media telling you that you need to deal with some shithead.

    My gut instinct has told me since I was three years old that people are nuts, and often have no clue what the hell they're talking about.

    I'm thinking that Donald Trump will have just as much, if not even more, power out of office. His 30% are not just voters, they're groupies. He's already hinted about his 2nd Amendment followers taking revenge and he'll be calling them out if he's impeached or even loses the election fairly.

    Trump was on Fox and Friends again...................lol...........


     
  11. Yea, they said the same during the primaries when republicans wanted to cast shade on him for not being "one of them". They were all scared he wouldn't "obey" the primary results and would somehow fight for it (though nobody defined how he could possibly pull something like that off.

    Then came Hillary and the democrats, who did exactly what they're now trying to lay at Trump's feet now. They didn't like the results of the election and created havoc in protest right up to this foolish impeachment play. You don't have to be a Trump "supporter" to see that Washington has really fallen down on the job here. Trump shouldn't be there, but Americans are sick of all the shit and would have voted in a turnip if it was not part of the establishment.

    The country was overdue for this, too bad it had to be a republican ticket, but at least we're getting a good look at the kinds of shit these people will pull for the sake of politics. It's too bad we can't just replace the lot of them in a single setting.

    No you need to go by the best available facts considered in a rational manner so that valid conclusions scan be drawn.

    THIS

    If I come across a claim, I immediately look it up and try and find multiple reputable sources that support it. And if I make a claim I always preface with "I've read" or "I've heard" or "According to". It's safer than stating something as fact. Also, I'm not the brightest person in the world, but I've always thought the difference between fake news and legit news was incredibly easy to spot.

    It is kind of cyclical and happens in different away. At least members of congress are not starting brawls as happened in the early 1800s.

    One Italian province elected a popular porn star to office twice, then elected her understudy. If I had to choose between them and Donald Duck its no contest. Never forget, the televangelists love this guy...

    I did hear about that. It seems electing entertainers is not something unique to the US.
     
  18. Sorry but i’m just giving my own two cents worth.
    It’s called an opinion something everyone is entitled to.

    They say democracy ain't perfect, but the alternatives suck. If you can't get a fair deal, at least you get bread and circuses.
     
  20. If i was living in america i’d vote democrats. I look at the party’s policies.
    The media have no idea.
