You had to see this coming, now that Russiagate is petering out. Didn't Team Hillary use big data? And look at the source of the article.

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.

Delusional. Are these people that dumb, or are they that deluded by their crazy ideology? It’s way past time that as a nation we allow reporters to be sued - by ANYONE they don’t tell the truth about.

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.

Liberals and Muslims always angling to criminalize and oppress conservative speech.

Every Muslim is a violent totalitarian thug.

Every liberal is a violent totalitarian thug.

No wonder they are in love.
