    Reasons why the Trumps should consider having pets (instead of hanging animal heads on the wall).

    Both Melania's and Ivanka's votes didn't count in New York's 2017 mayoral election.

    Malania failed to sign the envelope her absentee ballot was in, Ivanka mailed hers in too late
    Kushner didn't vote.
    The smartest man in the world, Donald Trump, put down the wrong date for his birthday..he so smart.

    BTW Eric and Ivanka failed to vote in the presidential election and the Trump dude was caught looking at his wife's ballet. I guess he thought she might vote for Hillary.

    See that's the thing. Leftists (not liberals) put people into groups. They assume people of that group should have a homogeneous common think. They often find themselves saying: But you're black, why do you think like that? But you're gay, why do you think like that? You're ___________ why do you think like that?

    How come?

    What makes an independent journalist or vlogger on Youtube any less valid than some schmuck on cable news? Much less a written opinion piece from NPR?

    What did Obama do for the black community aside from tearing racial relations completely apart in this country by the end of his tenure?

    Aren't you putting all "leftest" into a group which you have labeled people who put people in groups?

    Obama didn't do that, people that opposed him because he was black, among other things, did that.

    Here's one example:

    He did support black lives matter. A terrorist group that promotes racial division, and got plenty of young black people criminal records.

    Thats why I don't watch cable news actually, it has become far too opinionated. I would love to see a return to old fashioned reporting where the news is merely reported rather than 3 or 4 pundits discussing their own views of it

    And an NPR opinion piece is just that, an opinion piece

    There's nothing inherently wrong with watching vloggers as long as you fact check what they say. I dont think a lot of people take the time to do that

    And if you have to spend time fact checking I would rather just skip the vlog and head straight to the research without listening to someone's spin on it first. But I guess that's just personal preference.

    Vloggers can present a unique perspective that some may not consider otherwise, I'll give them that. But when arguing a point I just don't consider them a credible source without presenting other sources as well that verify what they're presenting.

    Well, that's just your opinion of Black Lives Matter.

    Terrorism and murder is an opinion?

    An independent blogger has no checks and balances. I can write a blog about anything, saying anything, and there aren't any repercussions as far as my blogging.

    Major media sources do something called "fact checking".
    They do it by checking sources, finding collaboration, checking context, consulting experts, reviewing evidence, and working to eliminate bias and build a trusted reputation.

    A "smuck" on cable news can loose his or her job, ruin their reputation, and harm the agency they're working for. In addition they have a large team working behind them that are also effected by what they say. A producer can get in a lot of trouble it they just let any old "smuck" mouth off on some news program.

    Independent bloggers can do whatever they want.

    I checked Candace's claims; they seem accurate to me. I even provided a source that backs up the failed great society programs that keep people poor. As they were designed to.

    Democratic politicians rely on a steady supply of poor people to win votes. Their whole premise is helping the poor (so they claim). 14.5% poverty rate means that more than 1 in 10 people in America live in poverty. That's high. If you dropped that number to 1 in 40, then there's fewer poor people to buy votes from with campaign promises, and fewer concerns for the poor. It's disgusting.

    What the hell are you talking about? I can cite plenty of examples where "trusted" sources have gaffed, misled, lied, and propagated to fit their agenda. Counterfiet News Network now wants to ban the term "fake news" after they were caught spreading fake news. Despite the fact that they and their clone channels coined the phrase. Ban the term 'fake news' (opinion) - CNN

    Did you really forget about all the, shootings, and murders that occurred after every BLM riot? You probably know Heather Heyer's name by heart at this point, while her death was a horrible tragedy, I bet you couldn't tell me the name of ANY of Micah Xavier Johnson's murder victims without going to Google. All of whom he killed in the name of Black Lives Matter. The Blacklivesmatter hashtag on twitter explodes with celebration every time an innocent cop gets murdered.

    Those are the people running the country. Trump and his associates should make an effort to understand the voting system first before launching a special commission to investigate conspiracy claims about 3 million votes supposedly being cast illegally in the 2016 presidential election.

    Another conspiracy theory with little merit: The Democrats are in collusion to keep people poor...that's rich.

    Every news organization gets it wrong from time to time, know why? They're made up of humans.
    The question is, do they correct their mistakes?
    If not they loose credibility.
    The major sources still have credibility with everyone but Trump's base.

    Counterfiet (sic) News Network. So funny.
    Then you cite an opinion piece.

    Micah Xavier Johnson was a lone wolf. Big deal.
    He was a member of the New Black Panthers years ago until they kicked him out for being too dangerous, not Black Lives Matter.
    He liked the Facebook pages of the New Black Panther Party, the African American Defense League, the Nation of Islam, the Black Riders Liberation Party, Black Lives Matter, Black Love Matters, the Nubian Rootz Cultural Center, and I Love Black Archaeologist.
    He was all over the board.

    So what, there are both black and white idiots in the world.

    He must be bi-polar. If he is afraid of germs, he wouldn't eat at McDonald's...would he?

    The Fox faithful have become increasingly frustrated and are now referring to Mueller as a criminal who is part of a coup.


    Trump Supporters Are Stepping Up Their Attacks On Bob Mueller And The FBI
    The attacks on the bureau and the special counsel’s office appear intended to set the stage for firing Mueller.
    By Ryan J. Reilly

    Trump Supporters Are Stepping Up Their Attacks On Bob Mueller And The FBI | HuffPost

    excerpt:

    "The attacks on Mueller and the FBI have gotten more extreme in recent days. Jeanine Pirro, a Fox News commentator who recently met with Trump, called the special counsel investigation a “criminal cabal” and the FBI a “crime family” and suggested that top ranking bureau officials should not only be fired, but taken “out in cuffs.”

    Fox News host Jesse Watters hosted a segment calling the investigation “crocked from the jump,” suggesting to viewers that “we have a coup on our hands in America.”

    And Fox News hosted a segment with White House adviser Kellyanne Conway, which featured the chyron “A COUP IN AMERICA?”"

    In addition to his germaphobia, and possibly related to it, Trump's exhibits a pathological perception of body fluids.


    Blood, Sweat and Trump
    Frank Bruni
    DEC. 23, 2015

    Opinion | Blood, Sweat and Trump

    From the article:

    "You have to hand it to him: He divines character flaws where no one else could or would. Through his warped lens, there’s shame in John McCain’s imprisonment in Vietnam, horror in Clinton’s use of a toilet, dysfunction in each bead of Marco Rubio’s sweat.

    The fluids of women in particular rattle Trump. When a lawyer who was questioning him during a 2011 deposition asked for a break so that she could leave the room and pump breast milk for her 3-month-old daughter, he was unhinged.

    “You’re disgusting,” he berated her, according to a story in The Times earlier this year by Michael Barbaro and Steve Eder. Then he stormed out of the deposition.

    More famously, he reflected on Megyn Kelly’s interrogation of him at the first Republican presidential debate by saying that “you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever.”"
