Who you gonna believe?
There's an actual word for it. It's called "Zombie Facts".

"Zombie Facts"
No matter how many times you kill it, it keeps coming back.

Flooding the media with Zombies is an actual alt right strategy. As it is with the russians.
No matter how many you kill, there's more until you run out of bullets and then the Zombie fact that Clinton hand delivered plutonium to Russian Terrorists in exchange for underage pizza prostitutes becomes accepted fact.

"Let's flood the media with Zombie Facts" is a political strategy and for D. Trump it has worked.

Nope. Even Clapper said there is no evidence of a Russian connection. Or were you referring to Hillary selling the Uranium? That's not false either.

You lose on both counts.

I suppose re-invigorating the dead is the only strategy they have, after all, it's a bankrupt dead-end ideology. Impotent too, unless they've developed some way to get around that problem. That's bloody unlikely as well, let's face it, these guys are not problem solvers, they consider themselves fortunate if they're able to create inertia.

Even better it seems, Trump supporter suckers are continuing to repeat these falsehoods in still more blind following style...

I am forever reminded of this quote, almost daily, when I read through some of these threads:

"For the great enemy of truth is very often not the lie--deliberate, contrived and dishonest--but the myth--persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic. Too often we hold fast to the cliches of our forebears. We subject all facts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought." -- JFK

Right. Let's talk about that "total lack of evidence." Funny, but don't know whether to laugh or cry...
It wasn't Trump that broke this story. What makes you think it isn't true? This is the first I've heard anyone dispute it.

Here's one story from April, 2015: Cash flowed to Clinton Foundation as Russians gained U.S. uranium assets | The Seattle Times

And here:

"Hardcore Trump supporters" is an oxymoron, it's political puffery at best.

What LearnMe is going to be crushed about the most is, they are not just looking into Russian Trump connections. They are looking at both campaigns for collusion and monetary gain not reported.

Does this mean So-called President will be forced to stop whining & stringing the American people along by revealing his tax returns? Or is this too much to ask of him? As it is, we're already paying a premium for his half-a$$ed attempts at competency, it's ridiculous.
