apparently kellyann did NOT "misspeak" about the fake bowling green masacre. she's told the story before, in greater detail. do these people live in some alternate world, with their alternate facts and their alternate gods? where does this shit come from?

It's why they keep attacking the "failing New York Times" and CNN. If they undermine people's confidence in the press (which was shaky anyway) and get people to get all their news from Trump's twitter, Facebook memes and Fox & Friends they can say whatever they want and their supporters and some of the uninterested parties will believe it. I'm just amazed that they're lying about such easily disprovable things. I really do think they're trying to see how far they can push that sort of thing before they get some backlash.

well, it seems like some of the backlash has started. the press is beginning to fact check them daily and point out that they're full of shit.
and the courts aren't taking their shit either.

Here, in Canuckistan, I have been blocked from linking (and sometimes even watching) SNL clips so many times that often I don't even try any more.

They're trying to sway public opinion through alternative means, they don't care how much the Washington Post calls them out on their bullshit. If they discredit the media in the minds of enough people their fact checking is irrelevant. At least I think that's what I think they're doing, whether it works or not is up in the air.

T minus 56 minutes and counting down to full shut down of the muslim ban by the 9th C.C. of Appeals. dumpster has until 3 pm to show justification (the legal kind, not the fake news kind or the kellyann imagined event kind).

here is how stupid the American people are.
Since 9/11, here are the biggest terrorist attacks in the US.
1. Anthrax Mailings - Bruce Edwards Ivins born in Ohio
2. Beltway Sniper - Lee Boyd Malvo, John Allen Muhammad born in Jamaica, raised in the US, born in Louisiana.
3. Ft Hood Shootings - Nidal Hasan born in Virginia
4. San Bernadino Shooting - Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik born in Chicago and Pakistan.
5. Orlando Night Club - Omar Mateen - Born in NY.
6. Boston Marathon bombers were born in Russia but were American citizens.

What do all of those people have in common? None were born in a country that is banned, all but 2 were born in the US. So even if it was to keep us safe, they need to ban people born in the US from being in the US.

if the press keeps doing their job, as they have been in the last week or so, the only ones believing them will be the drooling sychophants of theirs.

i think more and more of mainstream america are starting too see (especially with dumpster's constant twitter rants), that the entire admin. is fake, and it was all a ruse to put a bunch of billionaires directly in charge of the government.
hoping more folks open their eyes and call bullshit.
 
If the GOP had any respectability, they would have started impeachment hearings. But they are too worried they might not get reelected if they kick him out. I wonder how far he has to go before they try.

Eh, I don't think it's moved the needle too much. He's still popular where he was popular and unpopular where he was unpopular. I don't see too many people changing their stance on him yet. The main thing he's done is dial up the absolute hatred from people that were already opposed to him. The question in my mind is if someone does dig up proof that he's done something undeniably impeachable will the Republicans have the balls to actually go through with it.

It's only been 2 weeks. They're going to give him as much rope as he needs to hang himself on his own.

As much as I hate Trump, that quote has been debunked a million times.

I'm sure he completely believes that, but they said the quote was 1998. Fox News didn't really start to gain traction until 9/11, so I'm sure he thought it a few years later :grin:
 
McCarthy as Spicer on SNL was fucking hilarious.


the best (and worst) part about all of this is that you know the negativity is driving trump nuts. he cant let anything go. he gets so mad about everything.

McConnell has broken with him over the ban and so has McCain, and a few others. maybe it will spread.
