Fair enough. My point was that many people who read what you post, dismiss it out of hand, solely on the basis that YOU are the one posting it, and that YOU have a reputation as being misleading. As I said before, of course you have to deny this, and claim to be offering an honest version of reality. But it doesn't take a curious reader very long to figure out that you are not at all balanced in your presentation.

Everyone can make their own assessment.

This isn't about me (though that is your purpose).

This is about Trump and his methods to suck people in.

As always, for Donald Trump, the bottom line is "What's in it for me?"

Trump has admitted, “I like money. I’m very greedy. I’m a greedy person. I shouldn’t tell you that, I’m a greedy – I’ve always been greedy. I love money, right?

His supporters might want to ask themselves what Trump has bestowed on them so far except for a lot of hot air.

The only things I posted in the first place were links to two other stories, with a remark that they gave a better shake to the truth than NR. You cherry picked from the wikipedia link, and I stated that fact (which anybody can easily prove to themselves).

At this point you are reduced to defending being willfully misleading. You see, a story is never just about the subject of the story, the messenger cannot avoid whatever prejudice the reader associates with the messenger. You have baggage, whether you want to admit it or not is unimportant to me. You have the same character defect that you accuse Trump of.

You have taken a lot of flack on this site for taking a stand for doing what is right and for the truth. In case I don’t get a chance to say it later, THANK YOU for doing so. I’ve been reading about Trump university and have no doubt that it was a get rich quick scam, and that it cost a lot of people, who were just wanting to better themselves, a lot of their hard-earned money. Trump is now doing the same thing to America. We are giving our country to a serial fraudster. His very slogan, “Make America Great Again” was stolen from Reagan. Reagan used it to promote the idea that the American people would make America great again. And in the 1980’s, under his leadership, we rose up and did just that. Trump uses this slogan to promote the false notion that we can only “win” if he and big government do it for us little people. It’s all about HIM winning and about what HE is going to do, or force others to do, i.e. Mexico “paying” for the wall. His road to success involves crushing everyone who gets in his way—no wise defense of his own positions, just ridicule and false accusations aimed at his adversaries. I pray with all my heart that America awakes and rejects the fraud that is Trump.
