    Well then, it looks like nobody could find anything but references to fake news, and nothing about the media as a whole.

    trump doesn't get to define what is or isn't fake news. Especially since we all know "fake news" to him is any that doesn't kiss his big fat orange* hiney.

    *Orange or white. I don't really want to know.

    Just because you keep repeating doesn't make it so, Frank. You do realize that, don't you?
    Just saying....
    And repeating that news trump doesn't like is "fake news" doesn't make it so, either.

    Trump calls any and every news outlet that is not Fox "the fake news".

    The irony is, of course, that the only really fake news is Fox, who present and defend Daffy, falsely, as a respectable person.

    Trump is a liar, a racist and a coward. Evmetro is a white supremacist, racist swine, so he feels he also must defend a fellow racist swine.
    We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
    Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
    Ergo, religion.

    rac·ist
    rāsəst/noun
    a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
    Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
    If the answer is yes, you are a racist.

    He is a moron...and a danger to our nation and its institutions. ANYONE still supporting him is a TRAITOR to our nation and its institutions.

    So...ahhh...what were you saying about Trump?
    Since I support a few of our president's policies, are you suggesting I'm a traitor and should be hung for treason?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    RB...ANYONE STILL SUPPORTING DONALD TRUMP, AFTER SEEING WHAT HE IS DOING AND HOW HE IS DOING IT...

    ...IS A FUCKING TRAITOR TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA...AND A CONSPIRATOR AGAINST HUMANITY.


    Anyone in this category, should be treated with scorn and contempt at the very least. If you or they are ever convicted of any charges...you should be subject to the penalty the law provides for that offense.

    You need not scream, just answer my question. Should I be hung for treason because I support a few of our president's policies?

    No...a simple "yes" or "no" will NOT suffice.

    i suggest the rule of law should apply.

    If you are guilty of treason...you should be tried by a jury of your peers...and if convicted subjected to the penalty that applies.

    If you are guilty of treason...and tried...and not found guilty...you should be released. (Probably to continue treasonous activity and perhaps charged and tried again, perhaps with a better result.

    I look forward to your acknowledgement that I made a valid point and that you were wrong for asserting that a simple yes or not would suffice.

    Yes, a simple yes or no will suffice. Am I a traitor or not?
