Isn't it amazing how many on the left love to cite Trump's approval rating (from mostly left polling sites) when the media has a LOWER rating then he does and they want to constantly "impress" s with those numbers.

Well, it was a pretty stupid mistake.

Trump : 632
Media: 1

When Trump and his administration stop lying every time they open their mouths you people can claim some sort of high ground. We're still waiting for him to retract his fake Obama birth story.

Let's see...

They're trying SO hard to discredit:

1. The FBI and other law enforcement

2. Robert Mueller

3. The free press

4. The Constitution

All of which goes to confirm that Russiagate is getting closer and closer to toppling their little Trumpling fantasies.

Go on, Pubs. Keep it up, RW media.

Keep supporting this guy and pretending like America doesn't notice.

"It's entertaining to see the full blown right wing deflector shields deployed and failing."

Failing. Really?

Those you cite have done a very good job all by themselves discrediting themselves.

I don't know what you mean by "The Constitution" and how it fits into your narrative.

Pleas explain.

Retractions are usual honet errors.

NOT so in tis case.

"This idea that the media is singling out poor, honest President Trump is childish"

The idea that the media is NOT singling out poor, honest President Trump is childish!

I can explain it to you, but I can't comprehend it for you.

You can start here.

But I predict you'll just dismiss it.

That's what tRump's followers do.

Stay tuned and carry on.

They did the SAME thing with the inauguration picture.

The one they used was taken BEFORE the parade had even finished.

The ones taken DURING the inauguration show a big crowd.

"Not when I was growing up"

It WAS happening.

Back then we only had 3 networks talking the same way and no Internet and we had no way of knowing it.

Example: JFK was KNOWN by the media to be cheating on his wife a LOT and yet, NEVER reported on it.

Walter Cronkite, "The most trusted name in new" flat out LIED when he was in Saigon and reported that we had lost the war, when in FACT we WON every battle and the VC admitted later that TET was their last push and that we had won, were surprised when we didn't push forward.
