    That is a pretty broad question. Can you elaborate on exactly what you want to know. I also said/quoted, I support Republican/Conservative viewpoints and their ticket as I said above.

    And to be fair, Donald Trump doesn't hold the same viewpoints I do on certain things, so I am not sure what you're trying to accomplish here.

    I want to know what you consider conservative first principles. That is a very specific question, not a broad question.

    Well...If you don't understand what he (a distinguished journalist) was trying to elude to there, then please continue to keep getting your "news" from the MSM and have a nice day :)

    How do you decide if a journalist is "distinguished" or a "hack?"

    How do you decide if the MSM is giving you the truth or giving you what they want you to know based on agenda?

    I assume all the news is fake or biased or opinion masquerading as news.

    I listen to and read a variety of sources from across the political spectrum when it comes to opinions and analysis. When it comes to "just the facts" kinds of news, it depends. It's hard to know for sure what's "truth" anymore, but usually I think I'm pretty good at spotting when I think somebody is usually emotional appeals or whether or not they have well-researched arguments grounded in objective, verifiable facts.

    By default I'm skeptical of most claims at first glance and look for alternate accounts or narratives when I have the time or inclination.
