I would probably phrase it differently, and we might disagree with some of the causes and solutions, but in essence I agree with you. People are being manipulated, and encouraged to find enemies based on race, gender or even, god forbid, brexit (both side have been manipulted on that in my...

Ah,yes, a perfect example of the increasingly common mistake of assuming 'fredom of speech' = 'freedom to say what you like without any consequences'. He was free to speak out and prove himself a bellend. They were free to cancel a private contract with someone that has proven himself a...

Spot on I think. She's aiming to have her cake and eat it. Disowning Trump himself, whilst continuing to align herself with the most unsavoury aspects of his agenda, so as to be in a good position to take advantage when the next tin-pot populist comes along. Not that interesting really.

With very good reason as that article amply demonstrates. 'Trump has sold out everyone who was ever faithful to him — Jeff Sessions, Kris Kobach, Chris Christie, Milo Yiannopoulos, Gavin McInnes, the Proud Boys, Corey Lewandowski, Steve Bannon, Rudy Giuliani, and, of course, his own voters'...

"Melissa Carone...stunned the lawmakers sitting on the panel" Yes. Yes I think she did.

Indeed, it's a classic example of how the alt-right misinformation process works 1. A couple of republicans in Michigan decide to make a name for themselves by taking a token stand and refusing to certify results (meaningless as the decision will then be passed on and certified anyway, and they...

Not something that comes easily, but to defend spence there actually was a bit of a red wave I'm afraid. Bigger than expected anyway, with Trump significantly increasing his vote from 2016. Luckily the blue wave was just behind the red wave and was bigger.

God you two. Get a room ffs. The sexual tension is unbearable.

So...your're saying that Trump is a VICTIM of unfair levels of scrutiny and that nobody ever questioned Obama? F*ck me that's desperate stuff.

I wish I could give more than one thumbs up for this post. I agree that Obama was disappointing in many respects, and that can be overlooked on account of his extraordinary charisma and oratory skills. But to imply equivalence is absurd and seems to be the last bastion of defence for those...

And the penny finally drops,

Source material is not the same as 'source'. The source is the person. And if you think that any journalist worth their salt doesn't consider the integrity and potential motive of a source for any potentially sensitive story, let alone one of this nature and timing, then you know nothing about...

You genuinely think that everything that has been put out by the Trump camp on this Hunter Biden smear story is true, and that they took the time to verify it all before going public and presenting it as 'facts'? Ok...please someone else take over, I'm done for a while.

Not putting out a story which is very evidently a mash-up of truth, half truth and lies and which has been (clumsily) fed to them for very obvious political reasons is GOOD journalism. At least until the full story has been untangled and all aspects fully verified (which can take months) I...

https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/security/how-fake-persona-laid-groundwork-hunter-biden-conspiracy-deluge-n1245387 how's that?

Live by muddy waters and sowing seeds of doubt, die by muddy waters and sowing seeds of doubt. NBC have played Trump, Fox and co at ther own game and now you are wailing about it being unfair. Tough sh*t.

oh look https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/security/how-fake-persona-laid-groundwork-hunter-biden-conspiracy-deluge-n12453 I mean, it may or may not be true. Just like EVERYTHING ELSE with this story. Which is the real point. When the story is so obviously a mix of truth and fiction, and has so...

I don't doubt there's some planning and plotting going on. And I don't doubt some further dirty tricks are still to be played. The Republicans are not blind to the polling and will be considering options if things are close or slightly in their favour on the night, before the mail in/early votes...

That'll definitely make the difference. You still sticking with a wave then, even gven the polls? Not yet tempted to downgrade to the far more likely 'red ripple'?
