I bet Trump lies when he is sleeping, and I am not referring to reclining.

I felt bad for the woman handling the mic at the White House. I watched it live with a few people on CNN and we saw what we saw, and what Acosta did was totally inappropriate by blocking her arm and turning the mic away. It was crazy. He should have just gave the mic and sat down like everyone else when asked to. I dont know if CNN wants him to act this stupid all the time to get ratings, or he has gone insane.

I do watch CNN because I like to see the butthurt up front, and since I know they are nothing but a bunch of lying TDSers..then I know what the truth really is

You know how to lookup ratings, Im not doing your homework for you.

Gee, I'm confused. You stated CNN has NO viewership, and then you say that even YOU watch it. The math there simply does not add up. Please explain.

You have to remember, words don't actually have meaning anymore.

You confuse easily, as a lefty--this isnt surprising.


relative basis compared to an absolute basis.
CNN has NO viewership comparatively speaking to the CNN of the past--they are in a steady downtrend, apparently just like your reasoning and analytical abilities


fake news is on the way out--this is great news for the American people.

CNN can find someone else to ask questions, instead of making a political statement.

https://www.npr.org/2018/10/09/65582...d-consequences

Basically, there is a very serious, conscious effort by various totalitarian nations and terrorist organizations to derail democratic countries by turning the power of free speech into a weapon. (Not to mention the home-grown kooks like the one referenced in the previous link.) We've always had deep political divisions, but these latest social-media manipulations constitute a whole new magnitude of threat to civil democratic societies. The link about weaponization includes a discussion of the use of artificial intelligence to ramp up the levels of linguistic/conceptual warfare aimed, ultimately, at destroying any nation that allows freedom of speech.

As for the Acosta video, even the doctored version portrays a minimal amount of aggression. Conservatives complain about liberal PC patrols going overboard and blowing everything out of proportion (and I agree: some PC stuff does get out of hand)...well, this Acosta episode is just Trump trying to play the same game to his own advantage.
I’ll agree to,some extent but I don’t think we’re there yet our so called loving government is working towards that. I mentioned the Acosta video because it’s the latest craze so to speak.

It’s getting worse your right and out of hand if as Americans we don’t stand up to our government. Yet I don’t see it happening at least not in my life time. Too many Americans are being brainwashed too take notice.

Maybe Acosta was just taking from his leader's example.
