The left has no interest in any of it.
"There is no truth but power."

If it doesn't gain them more power, it's not true. If it does gain them more power, it is true.

Truth isn't a left wing value. It's really not.

What do you think the differences between the Left and right consist of, exactly?

Sorry but this is just flat out wrong. I stated as much on the first page and received several reputation points for doing so.

We're never going to get along, not even well enough to find compromises, if you're not willing to understand where your opposition is coming from.

Again, I have to ask what you think the differences are between the Left and right.

I think the big picture that the left is missing here, is that the (lack of) laptop coverage is direct, tangible proof, that the media cannot be trusted. You can’t claim conspiracy theory anymore. The right does not trust the main stream media, AND THEY ARE RIGHT! All one has to do is look at the suppression of the laptop story.

The mainstream media can’t fool anyone anymore. “The news” has changed forever.

You can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube.

The entire news media sold their soul over Trump. How sad.

This^^^^

Don Jr is a slimy greaseball, just as is Hunter. I don't like either of them, but neither of them are / were President of the United States, and thus far neither have been charged with a crime, so my wish for both would be that they would dry up and blow away so I don't have to hear about them anymore.

They miss the drama queen. They sold their soul because they want Trump.
Because Trump was able to keep the peace and a 5 year goosechase proves him clean. A lot of folks miss him, along with a huge number of Ukrainians.

What most people fail to understand is a large percentage of men would behave this way if they had unchecked power and wealth. There are things about our species people don't want to admit. That said, this poll is a joke. Everyone knows how the swamp would react....they'd destroy Trump Jr (rightfully so) and Trump just like they should be destroying Hunter Biden and his father.

We need people with integrity in office....we literally have nobody, especially on the left. For them the ends seem to justify the means.

The media in this country is as dishonest and narrative driven as much as the disinformation and propaganda that’s produced in Russia.

Unfortunately, many people in this country just blindly believe what the media comes out with in this country and it’s extremely upsetting!

I did read the story.

They want Trump NOW.

At the time, they most certainly did not. It was only after he was gone that they realized their disastrous error in judgment. But at the time of the election they did everything in their power to make him look bad and Biden look good, so please don’t try to rewrite history.

Don Jr may have his problems, however he is an “alter boy” when compared to Hunter Biden
