Wow... from the WaPo... I won't click on the link which makes money for WaPo... that trash is worthless... A reason I am boycotting Amazon... WaPo is complete trash, it doesn't even get to the level of tabloid... 99.9% of its opinions are lies and deceit...

I wonder if one of the Russians main tools for spreading fake news was Fox News. That might help explain things. One has to also wonder how many Russians trolls have been posting on this site in support of the Kremlin's favored candidate, Donald J Trump.

Hahaha.
  • OP talks creates topic about Fake News
  • Then posts link to the Washington Post
This says it all.


WaPo was 100% wrong about the election & Trump.

In the spirit of the thread:

Muslims donated real funds to help elect their candidate Clinton.

Apparently on some miniscule level, the John Birch Society is alive and well; it has merely re-invented itself and switched sides.

I hope all three of them were lucid enough to have had a Happy Turkey Day!

Cryogenics is a perfect solution for all of you folks that don't approve of President Trump. You have the crying part down already and just to think you could wake up in 100 years and never have to work again due to complete mechanization.
