25 million Trump supporters get their news from FOX. in short you are wrong waldo. and yes waldo the REAL numbers do speak for themselves even as they completely contradict you..
However, nothing that you presented proves that those people are making their voting decisions based on what they see on Fox News.

I'm not saying such proof doesn't exist, only that you didn't present it.

I'm pro choice.

Let's say someone I'll name 'Person A' is not pro choice, and that that is the overriding issue for Person A.

Let's also say that Person A won't vote for a candidate outside of the two major parties because they view that as 'throwing away their vote'.

Given the above, Person A would not have voted for Hillary. It wouldn't matter if Person A had never viewed Fox News for even one second, or if Person A watched Fox News sixteen hours a day/seven days a week, Person A would still vote for Trump rather than Hillary.

He has created an environment that is so toxic and dysfunctional that it threatens us on so many levels.

Everything Steyer said was absolutely correct. The inmates are running the asylum.

However, Steyer isn't telling us anything about Trump, that we don't already know. Is the fact that he's a billionaire, going to add enough weight to his plea to have him impeached, that congress or enough cabinet members will take action? Don't hold your breath.

Where has anyone said NO Trump supporters watch Fox? Nowhere outside of your own mind.
Yet Pew Research says its 40%. So not just inside my own mind.

Obstruction of justice is a dicey issue, and most law experts say what trump did was not really enough to win the case in Congress. Being unhinged is also dicey, has trump been official declared mentally incompetent by an accredited doctor that has talked with him one on one, so unless he does something overtly crazy then it is doubtful this would lead to anything. The man sounded scared and in part I do not blame him, but this in my opinion is the Wrong way to go about attempting to remove trump. I believe that this must be done through the legal ways and that means one has to be able to prove corruption and crimes and that is why we have a Special Prosecutor to get to the bottom of the entire mess. Personally all I want is the truth, and yes I think the truth will be trumps undoing, but If he is shown to have not done anything wrong then I have to accept it and live with it, simple as that. To circumvent the legal system and just impeach him because he makes us nervous or because he is not competent in our opinion is the wrong way it would lead to the demise of the Nation most likely through open warfare.
As for FOX, they support the President and it is their business and can decide what they will allow to be run in their air time. Let me ask, should CNN be required to run an ad for Neo-Nazis or KKK? We both know that they should not be, same rule applies for FOX or any other news station.
If any "news" station is supporting any politician they shouldn't call themselves news.

Steyer is heavily invested in the stalled carbon-credit scam (CCX) that, if successful, would have emptied all of our 401k's, depositing the money we all spent decades accumulating into an inflation-driven bubble that, unlike the housing market collapse, would impact everything we touch.


Having failed to win back the Senate doing Obama's second term (key to passing Cap and Trade), he has obviously gone off the rails.

Yes. And the converse is true as well. If one is true, then the other has to be true.

If any “news” station is opposing any politician they shouldn’t call themselves news.

None of the big three are truly “news”.

However i was not trying to prove anything beyond that Waldo made up some rubbish and it needed to be corrected.

i did that rather well and completely refuted Waldo's nonsensical premise.
