What does it add to the of conversation to have all these Freepers going on and on about how awful the Democrats are, when any true MAGA supporter with half a brain can see that the GOP are every bit as much a part of the destruction of the American dream and American freedoms? And that our two party system is a complete and total fake wrestling Kabuki farce.

It’s every bit as pointless, clueless, and redundant. I was one of the many fools who used to believe that the GOP was genuinely better than the Democrats. I stuck up for Bush and thought McCain would’ve been so much better than Obama.

I’m now embarrassed by it. But plenty of people here are just as shameless as the NY Times in their devotion to stale old irrelevant narratives that they can’t seem to let go of.

To equate individuals from expressing their personal opinions about democrats to an “news” organization propagandizing and lying makes no sense to me. In the one case, individuals are releasing steam in one of the few ways they can against against a party that hates the country and would love to see it destroyed. In fact, the democrats have pretty much destroyed everything they have touiched from the law, to education to politics to entertainment, you name it. On the other hand, you hae a business that lies the the American people, spins or ignores the news depending on what it is and basically pushes the Lefts agenda. So, to me there is a huge difference. The one part of your comment I agree with is that the Republicans have lied to us too and I as you don’t believe or support Republicans but do support individual Republican politicians. One thing Trump had done well and that is to expose the uniParty.

Wow. The NYT is working overtime putting out the Trump hate. I guess we can expect a whole lot more of this for the next two weeks.

“If Musk bought the NYT would he keep ANYONE?”

If Musk bought it, he should just implode it like we do old worn out resorts in Vegas.

Looks like the completely bogus “fraud” verdict is going to be thrown out - completely made up - no one filed any complaints or made any suggestion of fraud. The New York AG just started subpoenaing documents and pieced together a case she crafted out of nothing - zero fraud was found - loans were entered into by two willing parties and paid according to the loan’s terms agreed upon.

Invented case over Stormy Daniels - supposedly a criminal conspiracy because a legal payment was entered as a legal payment on an accounting ledger and not a campaign expense, event though the agreement had personal benefit to Trump regardless of any political campaign - but created a phony case alleging it was criminal because it could have also had a political benefit. Absolute nonsense...how many transactions do you engage in that could also be construed as a political benefit if you happened to be running for office at the same time?

The Federal Election Commission even said it was properly recorded.

Wow, each day they continue the drum beat of accusation after accusation and propaganda to influence they readers who are having second thoughts about voting for Trump.

I hope that Trump wins in a landslide (despite Democratic cheating) and carries the House and Senate on his coattails

Yes indeed. And testimony to that effect not allowed.

And testimony from Hope Hicks which verified he did so for personal benefit - to avoid having the story upset his family.

Trump has been a huge presence in NYC for a long time. I would love to dig up some NYTimes articles about him in the past and see if they demeaned him like they try to do now.

I think there’s only one party pretending to be two parties. And the amount of GOP politicians I would trust, I could count on one hand.
