When I first found FR in the Fall of 1997, there were more than several solid researchers who posted facts and sources for their research. As far as I can tell, none of those members still post here, and I’m not sure any of them are still members. I am willing to be corrected, though, if someone posts FACTS and SOURCES to correct me.
FR is supposed to be a CONSERVATIVE website. These days it appears to be not much more than a shadow of what it used to be, with many members behaving a lot like Democrats and alinskyites. I am hoping it will recover after the November elections.
Trump is a master of misdirection keeping everyone chasing side issues because of his inconsistencies and lack of substance on the real issues.
