I'm confused.  Anyway, I personally don't rely on "unnamed sources" for anything more than a slight maybe, and if the assertion is contradicted by named sources, I tend to discount it.

I think many folks believe what they want to believe and then just pay little attention to the remainder, or something like that.

I don't care if you like him (which would be weird), hate him, or indifferent to him, you have to admit that he was NEVER going to get a fair shake in the media or in DC, in general. He's an outsider.

He was not the chosen one by the media, and was also not the chosen one in his own party*. 

Add those up and you get what we have today.


* The POTUS is a Republican = Bernie is a Democrat.


I notice if you take the "TU" out of POTUS, you get POS. That has fit very well, since January 2013. Very sad.

POS's agenda aligns with mine more the the other viable choice. It is what it is.

Peace deals are really good. I want to see more of them, and I want to see and end to our relationship with China. With "friends" like them, who needs enemies?

I said it a minute ago its alleged that Biden knows the press questions in advance and puts the answers on his teleprompter 

if true this is eye opening and very very scary

why would the media try to hide this mans mental condition from the American public

Maybe the allegations would have more credibility if they were from unnamed sources ....

Syracuse plays at UNC in 4 minutes, that's the only game I see worth any of my time.

... or any sources.  It's the same old thing - a report from various unnamed sources can't compete with just general internet conspiracy theories.  Then we wonder why "the media" doesn't spend more time sourcing their stuff.

"If this ain't a mess, it'll do until the mess gets here."...

When I was a kid up and perhaps as long as to around Y2k, the differences between left and right hinged on a few key issues.  Folks felt strongly about what they believed, but it didn't sever relationships or turn into fights.  The sentiment seemed "well, let's just see what everyone else thinks come time to vote."....

I miss those days.  Badly.

As a direct point about the current, uh, contest?  I can't wrap my brain around how badly Trump is hated by the left and then the left presents Biden as the answer?  Or better said, Harris, as the response... its one thing to criticize actions and positions when the group complaining has a better plan... its an altogether 'nother thing to complain when no better solution is offered. 

Granddaddy said "boy, if someone is trying to get an emotional reaction from you then you're being manipulated."  For over four years now the system has tried to make me hate Trump, and who is a man far from lovable anyway.... why?  When it comes down to it, the only differences I see with his policy and others is that he actually moves on them.... what i see of the others on both sides of the aisles is posturing and promises that are never fulfilled.... or, rarely so.  The same old emotionally tickling topics are massaged to gain support and topics that have never been resolved in my lifetime...

But that is just arguing to a predestined conclusion, I fear. 

The ONE thing I can't get past is Hillary stating in message to DNC heads "if that ****** wins, we're all going to hang from nooses.".... That exposed comment tells all.  I'll hold my nose and vote for whomever runs against that machine.

I still dont think the dems will let Biden debate

I'm not sure why anyone would blame "the media" for people hating Trump when a lot of the hate is sourced from things Trump does and says directly.

I dont blame the media for hating Trump I mean considering the Media is in large part an extension of the DNC its very understandable 

Most of the hate Trump issues is towards anyone that has already taken a shot at him and that includes the media and politicians

Trump is a fighter and refuses to be pushed around and the media has never learned this

if you swing at Trump he will return the favor very quickly and the media just has never learned this

they cant take him down and its driving them mad
