    Why do you allow the lies?

    Ira Fusfeld explained that if the press called Trump a liar every time Trump lied, the public would tune it out.

    So the 4th estate tries to mix it up a little:
    - the president stated an inaccuracy
    - the president was found to be in error this afternoon

    They try not to call it a lie, unless it's blatant, and demands voter attention.

    Anyone that say MTP today knows there's a whole lot of it going on. Our president didn't have a very good week.
    "It should be obvious to anyone why conservatives and libertarians should be against Trump. He has no grounding in belief. No core philosophy. No morals. No loyalty. No curiosity. No empathy and no understanding. He demands personal loyalty and not loyalty to the nation. His only core belief is in his own superiority to everyone else. His only want is exercise more and more personal power." smb / purveyor of fact 18/03/18

    So what is your solution?
    SEDITION: incitement of resistance to or insurrection against lawful authority.

    But why would I, go over the speed limit; but if I did, then it's my fault.

    You aren't a liberal, though.

    And yes - Obama bears blame too. No American should tolerate this policy. This is something we expect of 3rd world countries & dictatorships. We stand for something better, or used to.
    So how would you handle this?

    I've also asked server liberals, who are complaining about this, and not one of them has been able to give specifics; then have posted vague references to this and that, but nothing of substance.

    More's the pity.

    Where was the liberal "care" when Obama was apprehending 68,541 unaccompanied children at the border in fiscal 2014?
    Were children being separated from their families by the US government, brother?

    Why aren't they seeking asylum in Mexico, seeing as how that's how it's laid out??
