Politifact is “independent?

Ridiculous claim.

But mostly, the article asserts that communicating directly with the voters is somehow a threat to representative government.

Time for “common sense” speech control, apparently.

"Trump's disregard for making [a] true statement is something a lot of reporters have had trouble dealing with, because we are not used to it. We are not used to politicians or press people just straight-up lying," says Rosie Gray, a journalist for The Atlantic.


Where was Rosie during the Clinton and Obama administrations???

I think it was actually the mainstream media who made him President. The media wanted Trump to be the GOP nominee because they thought Hillary could beat him. The proof is that NBC had the Access Hollywood tapes. They could have released those in the primaries. But they held them back until after Trump was nominated and released them as an October surprise. But they misjudged Hillary’s unpopularity.

Go. News gave the Never Trumpers (Kristol, Kasich. McCain, etc) plenty of airtime. Beck’s audience voted Trump despite Beck. ALL the newspapers went for Mrs. clinton or none of the above. Jimmy Carter won Hawaii and Ohio by less than Trump’s margin in Oh PA Wi. He played the electoral college, Mrs Clonton played raise money and win big in CA to be the first Clinton yo get a majority. She failed, as her husband twice failed.

Pollster Ben Tulchin is a loser’s loser. Google his name and the first thing that pops up is Bernie Sanders. Tulchin’s client list consists entirely of Democrat Party entities and Left Wing organizations. so of course he is the most qualified authority to speak about President Trump’s electoral strategy.

Clinton pollster Mark Penn has officially disembarked the Titanic, but Tulchin is still fiddling.

"Conservatives only get their news through Fox News or alternative sites like Breitbart, so that's the only news they see,"

And libs only get their news from the likes of MSLSD and the Clown News Network.

Only four percent of his statements during the campaign were true? Id sure like to see an accounting of the ninety six percent they deemed to be false.

It was difficult to get through the first paragraph and not blindly see the crying of the most fictitious article in hopes of swaying opinion. Blatantly obvious that they are grasping for anything to turn opinions. The only thing that they could have added was the fact that the Trumpster actually told one big whopper of a lie. He said we would get tired of winning but that would have been a factual truth and not follow the narrative of the intent. What the LSM doesn’t get is the mere fact that average citizens of the US are nothing but mutts with cold wet noses and enjoy winning everything. I do wish the Trumpster would apologize for his error and miscalculation of our desire to kick the opponents to the curb. It is a natural instinct of our culture.

Oh, well if “Politifact” says only 4% of Trumps statements are true, then that must be so.

As we all know, they are the final arbiters of truth.

95% of so called Journalists are self described Democrats / Liberals / Progressives / Socialists.

Of the remaining 5%, four out of five are Liars.

only four percent of Trump's statements during the 2016 campaign were true.

These kinds of statement from our political enemies bring a smile to my lips.

May they keep on keeping on.

…[Trump] took Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania by a total of 77,000 votes - three key states that carried him to victory.

I posted a similar story about Obama in 2014 when he ran the table of swing states in 2012.


So what happened in 2012?

Colorado went 51%-47% for Obama. Denver alone voted 209,759 to 69,755. In a city the size of Denver (pop. 634,265), Romney could only manage less than 70,000 votes?

9 Electoral votes for Obama from a difference of 137,948 votes.

Florida went 50%-49% for Obama. A squeaker. The vote difference was 74,309. Think about all the polling irregularities we heard from Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, with Republican poll-watchers being kicked out for two hours until the police forced Democrats to let them back in. The vote difference in those three counties alone was 574,033.

29 Electoral votes for Obama from a 74,309 vote difference.

Iowa went 52%-46% for Obama from a 91,927 vote difference. Johnson county had a difference of 26,534 votes, and Linn county had a difference of 20,601 votes. That's half of the state differential right there.

6 Electoral votes for Obama from a 91,927 vote difference.

Virginia went 51%-48% for Obama from a difference of 149,298 votes. Fairfax county had a difference of 87,049 votes. Prince William county had a difference of 28,790 votes. Newport News had a difference of 23,766 votes. Hampton county had a difference of 32,540 votes. These are the heavy blue counties, and they overwhelm the rest of the state.

13 Electoral votes for Obama from 149,298 votes.

Add Ohio's 18 electoral votes from a 166,214 vote difference that came from Cuyahoga county, and it's clear that the election was decided by 1,193,729 suspicious votes from targeted counties in targeted states.

Being dragged out from the shadow into the sunlight is destroying a lot of liberal so called think tanks, which meddle in elections in America and around the world.

Go to this link to read about, this former left wing organization that was dragged into the sunlight of truth by what we read and post on Free Republic.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCL_Group

This is another example of why we should donate to Free Republic to keep its sunlight of truth going for us.

According to Politifact, an independent fact-checking website, only four percent of Trump's statements during the 2016 campaign were true.

Funny how a poll about lying is a lie...
