Did you know? Hitlery started "Fake News" - Not Drumpf

News that might tend to refute or otherwise denigrate Democrats are "fake" to Democrats.....since they cannot possibly ever be wrong....

News this might tend to refute or otherwise denigrate Republicans are "fake" to Republicans.....since they cannot possibly ever be wrong....

 

If you....any of you..... assume that a politician is "good" then you are a fool

Didn’t come up with the birth certificate stuff either. That was Hillary’s camp.

Mmm looks like the same team.

No, it wasn't either Hillary or Trump (who claims he coined the term)

It was Craig Silverman:

Trump Claims He Invented the Term “Fake News”—Here’ s an Interview With the Guy Who Actually Helped Popularize It

During a press conference alongside Finnish President Sauli Niinistö Wednesday, President Trump took credit for inventing the term “fake news”: “I don’t even use fake anymore,” he said. “I call the fake news now corrupt news because fake isn’t tough enough. And I’m the one that came up with the term—I’m very proud of it, but I think I’m gonna switch it to corrupt news.”

That’s…what’s a good term for news that isn’t real…well, anyway, BuzzFeed News media editor Craig Silverman was in fact the person who popularized the term “fake news” before Trump got his greasy paws on it. Silverman first started using it in 2014 while he was running a research project at Columbia University’s Tow Center for Digital Journalism and later made it a big part of his beat when he moved to BuzzFeed in 2015.

Trump just bought into it hook line and sinker. He sent his best people to Hawaii to get to the bottom of it

So ironic the nickname for her used here when the guy that defeated her wants to impose a dictatorship in this country, 

In a sane world we’d be living right now in the 8th year of Hillary’s presidency and all of lives would be better by any measure possible.

I think selling yourself on these premises is not entirely useful, we know none of that trite nonsense is true....

I think its time we stopped sensationalizing.....allowing ourselves to be manipulated (on both sides as well) and simply stuck to policy and outcomes.

Lets not pretend there is any more threat to our Republic.......not "Democracy" from any one side more than the other.....you are simply allowing yourself to become a puppet for the power hungry....lets instead call BS on them, all of them, every time....

Only last night Trump promised to federalize the local police of this country. Once again he referred to undocumented immigrants as animals and vermin. He has called for abrogating the Constitution. He continually threatens political violence:

So I don’t think any of this is an exaggeration. And I absolutely believe that Trump wants a dictatorship. And there is no equivalence on the Democratic side.

If you don't believe Biden is already doing what you THINK Trump would do, then you're nothing but a pawn.  Calling Trump a "dictator" but conveniently leaving Biden out of that same accusation is simply because you're unwilling to face the truth.

If a Democrat accuses you of something, then it's 100% that they are already doing it themselves.

No. Biden is not federalizing police. He does not call opponents vermin. He has not abrogated the Constitution. He is not a dictator by any rational definition. Sorry.

I give Obama credit on that one. He could have put it to rest immediately but he let it play out and kept it as a wedge issue. Like he did with abortion.

Here’s a hint. Only morons bought into the Kenyan stuff.

Of course Trump was one of them. He went on about it for 8 years

You can read into his statements and absolutely feed your pre-conceived notions, I do not discount that.   But I think it might not serve your interests to do so.  He will not be some dictator, he will simply restore the policies that were working well before COVID arose; though I think he needs to be more thoughtful this time as there is considerable damage to unwind.

I would take a long look in the mirror and the sources to which you think you're getting accurate information from.  At some point, you have to stop believing the propaganda coming from the left.

Might want to Google yellow journalism.

 

And no, it's not a Japanese newspaper.
