This is literally 8 minutes about the electoral college comment and #RUSSIA!

Can you truly not understand why this isn't going to create the kind of uprising you're looking for?

Fact: Trump exaggerates in an uninformed manner on his electoral victory margin.

Conclusion: Therefor, every word Trump says is a lie.


That's not how this works. Average citizens do not have the same level of inherent hatred for Trump that's necessary to make this leap in logic.


Not really. The teacher/journalist turned radio host I was listening to was a never-Trumper, and the entire topic setup was him being concerned that Trump was coming off as a loon and doing more harm than good. He basically seeded the audience with a "call in and agree with me that this isn't going to end well" and the actual response was the total opposite.

There are more of "them" than there are of you, so you should pay attention to how the normies respond to these things.

2p2 is undoubtedly a bubble and you must surely know that, but I don't consider my peers any more or less real than the lot of you. However, I do genuinely believe that "my side" handles being the unwilling passenger on the Hype! train better than yours, and casual participants in politics don't like to throw their hat in with such an off-putting crowd.

amazing

No I think he meant that Kal's character in the movie -- Kumar -- or the Harold character, would be better as POTUS than Trump. Which I wholeheartedly agree with.

Vox has the memo that Spicer said didn't exist:

.

I don't think that's the leap most people are making. It's within a context of him berating the media for supposedly lying about pretty much everything (that he doesn't like) when many of the reports are factually correct, combined with the many lies he has already been caught in. In that context, him flat out lying about something like his electoral vote count (trivially verifiable) in front of the entire world on a live broadcast is more of a confirmation that he lies A LOT. It shows he is willing to lie about something so obvious, even in that situation. It's not a leap to think he's willing to lie whenever it suits him.


edit: now that I see what video you are referring to, I have to say that you misrepresented it.

Dude, don't expect Inso to give an honest assessment of what liberals are actually arguing.

I'm going in deep denial mode now.

This might work on some of the higher-functioning Trumpkins:

Would you hire a doctor, lawyer or accountant who tweeted something like this?



If not, why is it acceptable for the POTUS?

"Average citizens" (by which I guess you mean REAL Americans who don't trust fake-news rags like the NY Times) know Trump lies all the time. They just don't care.

There may be some Trumpkins out there who think he doesn't lie, but those people are so uninformed and dumb that their opinions are irrelevant.

cant wait for his tweet stating fake news

When Trump repeats his great electoral victory line tomorrow, is his number still 306?

I really hate these reports--it's a trap, he gets to not do it then blast the media for reporting it b/c it's fake news. Make him do it. May God help us if 100k nat guard troops instantly start rounding up people no questions asked.

wow @ fox news actually posting that poll. Thought they were gonna go with rasmussen's.

Yes spending half a press conference complaining about the media and crowing about winning an election and half a press conference just flat out lying... it was quite the performance.

"I won thousands of electoral votes. Thousands. A thousand or so."

"I was rounding off."

lol Inso0

November 2016:

And later:

We're 1 month into chaos. If things get worse, I am quite, quite confident the specter of indicting Clinton herself will be raised. Bannon/Trump knows nothing more would get the base into fits of titillated joy than that.

Watch.

Most interesting thing here is that the second poll ("HAPPENING NOW" chyron) is from 11/8/16! Trump has lost Fox News.

Huh?

And Trump trying to use the military or National Guard for immigration roundups would not be the tiniest bit surprising.

Yeah that's pretty gross without any context. Probably not any better with.

It's hard to tweet 20 times a day without putting out some real cringe.

I have no doubt he'd do it, but they love nothing more than denying when all his supporters will only see he hasn't done it and liberals are whining over nothing again.

Though maybe we're past the point of no return already and **** it.

I said the day after the election clinton should've hopped on a plane and never came back. He's saving that card.

Mark Cuban has been going in on Trump for a solid 20 min now on CNBC. Been debating with Kevin O'Leary for at least 10 minutes and they just went to the second commercial break during this segment with promises to come back to the two of them. I recommend tuning in. My favorite parts so far are the ones where Cuban uses O'Leary's Shark Tank phrases to refute his points.

I also liked when O'Leary said he might be negotiating with Trump someday and Cuban said "God help us all"

C'mon bro. No real grown up should ever tweet anything like that. I have almost 40k posts on an anonymous board where I am often trying to be insulting and I've never said anything like that. More or less that's true of almost every reg on the forum.

When arguing with someone about sports on Twitter, I believe I once supported my argument with "Because I'm smarter than you."

At least half his supporters will be mad if he doesn't send the military to round up illegals and "restore order" in Chicago.
