Trump quotes, “Nothing can be believed which is seen in a newspaper. Truth itself becomes suspicious by being put into that polluted vehicle.”

Jefferson also went on to say,

“Perhaps an editor might begin a reformation in some such way as this. Divide his paper into 4 chapters, heading the 1st, Truths.
2d, Probabilities.
3d, Possibilities.
4th, Lies.

The first chapter would be very short, as it would contain little more than authentic papers, and information from such sources as the editor would be willing to risk his own reputation for their truth.

The 2d would contain what, from a mature consideration of all circumstances, his judgment should conclude to be probably true. This, however, should rather contain too little than too much.

The 3d & 4th should be professedly for those readers who would rather have lies for their money than the blank paper they would occupy.”

No wonder Democrats are attracted to the profession. They’ve been dishonest for a very long time.

Q: How is it that the President of the United States can make the very serious charge that specific media outlets are enemies of the American people?

A: Because he has solid proof.

Nothing but love for TJ - He was at one time the author of my tagline ~ (”Resistance to tyrants is obedience to GOD!”)
