My heads going to explode with this controlled media and it's starting to permeate the www. Tried searching the web for "minority employee of Trump" because I saw a youtube vid of a hispanic/black (I forget which) woman praising her employment at Trump. I'm sure I can find it in my browsing history but all I find via a web search is negative/opposite. Likewise, searching for "good things Trump has done" brings up the exact opposite. Trump the man and the company pages on wikipedia have no mention of anything good.
Just read something here about him helping the Marine that was imprisoned in mexico. I remember something about him paying off someone's house because they helped him when he was broken down on the side of the road. (heard it on apprentice) Another is a Veteran's Memorial? Skating rink?
This list needs to be verifiable online. Maybe we/I can even get some of it on wikipedia although from what I understand, they lean left. Still, facts are facts so the info should be able to be put up there. Every other wealthy person's wiki page has a philanthropy section and while Trump might not have any official "foundations" he supports, the small stuff counts and imho, moreso. Even if we can't get content onto wikipedia, the list here would be good reference material for all of us to use as talking points to help discredit the msm version of Trump. It should be a pretty easy thing to do really. I mean, all the pols have their "foundations" and "causes" they donate to and half or more of that money stays in politics. Trump also has his donations and I'm sure it was to buy points with someone but Trump has also helped real people and real things and I don't think he even tried to popularize the instances or capitalize one them. Just did it because he felt like it and/or it was the right thing to do AND because he doesn't consider himself as some supreme being like the pols.
For me, this is aimed at convincing the undecided and misguided folks and would be for battling in the comments section of news sites and for posting on social media for the same. There's plenty of good info here at FR but it's preaching to the choir in a way and sending people here would be that way as well. Love the site and have turned my Bother in Law onto it but he's already like minded. A lot of the undecided/misguided would come here, see Red, White and Blue and the word Republic, the mission statement, roll their eyes and leave even though they're not necessarily sold on leftist politics. They've been somewhat brainwashed by edu and msm. They've been convinced that anyone talking about the Replublic and Constitution is a "Right Wing Extremist".
As an example, my grand neice who's in the Coast Guard, "liked" some negative Trump facebook post that ended with, "This is White Supremacy". She's young, idealistic and knows not what she does but I still have hope for her. I may not be able to change her social views but maybe I can enlighten her on political issues. Now even when I find that youtube vid, the lady sounded like she was reading a script, though it may just be her regular voice but it's just one example and people will say, it's scripted or that she was paid by Trump to say how wonderful it is to work there. We need multiple examples of Trump's good to offset the overwhelming bad and preferably not from obviously right wing sources.
I don't have a lot of money but I will be buying a red hat. What I do have are some www/techie skills and rainy days that prevent me from working outside. I also was involved in the Tea Party when it first started and had a newsletter with about 2000 people on it and it was gaining subscribers. I still have that list of email addresses and want to start up the newsletter again. Most of these people would be considered like minded so my emails will not be to convince them, but to give them the ammunition they need to convince others.
This is my first post here on FR and hopefully, it's not out of line but I/we need help to make sure Hillary or equivalent does NOT get elected and I think Step 1 is to counterect the MSM's distortion of Trump. He's no angel and in fact, I personally dislike him a little but I do respect him for doing what he's doing and I do beleive he wants to fix things and that he's Pro American. I don't know if this is considered a "vanity" post or not but if so, I apologize and ask for guidance. With that in mind, I have a question. How is FR best used? Is it mostly a collection of news articles found around the web and discussed by like minded people here? Or are there features I'm missing? Is there an outline of how to use the site?
Thanks, John
How Trump helped Ben Carson through an awkward moment, behind the scenes, when debate moderators screwed up the introduction. Who’s the man?

Halted the formal Extermination Genocide of your a$$.
Final chance for your survival is unlikely though.
“Gets himself called a racist by the left.”
That’s the insult du jour.
Say you like vanilla ice cream and it’s racist.
The word has become meaningless.

Agreeing with the poster is not required for commenting.
And I’m fine with Trump, that’s not why I commented.
Made securing the southern border a campaign issue that the establishment GOP could not continue to ignore.
He’s got people who haven’t complained about Obama for the last 8 years or the 2015 congress to start speaking out for “true conservatism”. Not wrt the 2016 congress which seems to be following Obama and the 2015 congress on everything except the supreme court.
That got “true conservative voters” to realize that “true conservative elites” have been lying. They can get some credibility back if they start pounding Ryan on progress in the 2016 budget but it seems like congress and “true conservative elites” have no interest in a conservative budget (or most other conservative issues voters care about).
He’s also brought out-of-the-box ideas to the conversation. What’s wrong with talking about a 50 year old organization, NATO, and it’s relevance today and if it can be improved for the US? Or looking for conservative ways to keep the good in planned parenthood but not fund abortion? Or a number of other things he get attacked for. He’s not going be able to do any of these without advice from experts and in most cases working with congress. But there are so many issues where nobody in DC tries to find a solution or introduce a new idea. THIS is the R idea and THAT is the D idea and we only argue about which of those 2 we will go with not if there are other ideas.
KO’d Cruz and Ksick.
Making all the GOPe types get their panties in a wad.

Greta: Yes, Donald Trump helped Tahmooressi
Aug. 20, 2015 - 1:31 - ‘Off the Record,’ 8/20/15: Trump gave the US Marine who was held in Mexico money to help jumpstart his life after months of captivity. Pres. Obama didn’t even pick up a phone for him

Opened up new information possibly pertaining to the JFK assassination.
Or go to Trump’s website where you can get his ideas of self worth. I don’t think it would matter much to anyone on this forum one way or another. They have made their minds up and don’t need other viewpoints. In other words, it would be a waste of your time. But if you happen to come across any useful info on Trump, it would be appreciated.
He didn't... the story is a fabrication...a nice one, but not true...

Yeah, Snopes does tilt left, but the research seems legit...
Looks like he’s got the Emerson Bigguns vote wrapped up...
