Just like he did with far-left CNN, President Trump has just forced the phony, left-wing fact check site Snopes to throw out every standard of professional journalism. In a stunning admission (of what we already knew), Snopes announced Thursday that Trump and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson are such a unique threat to world that “experts must find new ways to reach people.” Which means that — get this — Trump and Johnson must be “countered by the shared stories, experiences and emotions of real people and how they are affected by the big global issues.”
“Public austerity measures, for example, are not simply about financial facts,” Snopes mewls. “Indeed, when presented merely as economic data, many people can neither identify with nor understand them. Instead, austerity poses problems that compel us to examine how they affect people and families in their daily lives. The experiences of those individuals must be shared.”
Snopes is promising to get just as ridiculous with other left-wing causes, specifically when it comes to stopping Brexit and furthering the Global Warming Hoax:
Whether examining Brexit, public austerity measures or the effects of climate change, one limitation is that facts and data generated through quantitative social research are presented as if detached from the people they concern as well as those involved in their production. Far removed from people’s lived experiences, they risk displacing any sense of what it is to be human. As such, they are, perhaps, too easy to dismiss.
This is actually good news. The mask is now removed forever.

Feelings and emotions = truth.
Facts = facts.
They’ll do truth.
New name: Snipes (Trump)
Arkancide was investigated. Lol.
Snopes?
No cred.
Snopes has never been neutral.
Oh, "air quotes" .... nevermind!
The press tries pump up Snopes as a major organization. It is a cat lady and her ex-husband operating in their basement. The ex-husband ran off with a stripper a few years ago, but is still part of the “company”.

It will read like this:
CLAIM: That during the Trump administration, unemployment fell to it lowest level in years.
SNOPES: Brendan Couchsurfer claims that he can’t find a job. He feels that it’s Trumps fault.
Result: TRUMP’S CLAIM FALSE.
Whatever shred of credibility Snopes had left just disappeared.
LOL!
Davos?
Hallelujah! That’s the comment I’m going to use, when I post this article.
I thought this was a Babylon Bee article.
Go for it!
Amen!
I already assume PDJT is going to win 49 states. Trying to impeach means 50. The Senate will NEVER impeach PDJT.
I understood. In my opinion, it is close enough to Christmas that trees and lamp posts can be decorated.
Oy!
