The New York Times being the New York Times.

It is one thing to have a (mistaken) opinion and present it as fact. But that should only happen on the editorial page. It absolutely should not happen in a headline.

Somehow, the New York Times is able to prove a negative.

Hey ?Slimes, how do you know it’s a “lie”?

Did you investigate Detroit? Philly? Broward County? Chicago?

Why don’t you actually do investigative reporting for a change, and let us know what you find

Then you can opine one way or the other

AUDIT CALIFORNIA!

Form a commission. Audit the results in CA and see if illegals voted.

If they did, issue warrants for their arrest for violating federal law.

Then go state by state and purge the rolls.

Libs opened the door for Trump here. He should jump on the opportunity.

I don’t give a crap about vague language from the POS NYTimes that “various factcheckers” having found the claim false. This is the same type of “all scientists agree” and “97% of climatologists concur” and “all economists agree” horses**t the left always uses when they have scant evidence but wish to sound scholarly. There were at least 1.5 million illegal votes cast in CA.

I don’t know how anyone can dispute this claim since there is no such category for “illegals” in CA and anyone, including illegals, can obtain voter registration with literally zero confirmation or documentation just by getting a driver’s license (eg; motor voter) and there is no way to back check these names and ballots. It’s probably illegal to even try.

The big deal of course, is that Trump is a bad man for claiming this. It’s nothing, though, for 0bama to have encouraged illegals to vote, as if there is some way that isn’t election fraud.

Every other president in living memory has had a honeymoon with the press after being sworn in. That tradition has been dumped by the scum in the media.

Trump NY Slime Repeats Lie About Popular Vote in Meeting With Lawmakers

Washington Post (First report):
During a White House meeting with congressional leaders from both parties Monday, President Trump reportedly told lawmakers he would have won the popular vote against Hillary Clinton if it weren’t for voter fraud, reviving his unsubstantiated claim about illegal voting.

NY Times:
Mr. Trump asserted that between three million and five million unauthorized immigrants voted for Mrs. Clinton. That is similar to a Twitter message he posted in late November that said he would have won the popular vote “if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally.”

They are saying two different things, probably based on a sentence that sounds similar, but means two different things:
3-5 million illegal ballots
3-5 million illegal’s ballots

Most likely millions of illegal immigrants did vote, and dead people too. And then there was the ballot stuffing.

Glad Trump is still talking about this, but he will need to do more than talk about this in the next four years.

  I read the article but couldn't find any reference to the exact number of illegals who voted. Surely, the New York Times has an exact accounting of the precise number of illegals voting. How do they know that Trump is wrong? Why do they think Obama flooded the country with illegal aliens? Certainly, the New York Times wouldn't just make stuff up. It's just those bloggers who must be fact checked!

This site should have a separate section for fake news outlets like the NY Times and Washington Post.

Can anyone prove President Trump is not right? No. Therefore, not a lie.

The Old York Times is right, it was probably 3 million illegals voted.
