    Sure, there are a couple stooges who on Fox who support Trump, but when even his "personal" news station is beginning to turn against him, that is not a good sign.

    So what, he reads a list written by someone else at the beginning. A lot of which is not always factually correct. Then it de-evolves into his actual own words which are embarassing incoherent jibber jabber. He needs to stop using these briefings like he is at a rally. He is not doing himself any favors.

    That doesn't make him smart or his IQ any higher that he has managed to stay out of trouble. He got saved by the republican senate and his corrupt AG...its corruption not intelligence.

    I was commenting on your use of gaslighting. Its not just some fear mongering, it's reality. People are dying.

    The FDA has oked it for testing....the emergency use mechanism is part of it's way to accelerate testing. It is not completely approved...not finalized. There is still a lot of doubt as to whether it really works for Covid-19.

    Okay, I will give it a shot.
    Response to gaslighting question 1: No, I don't have a problem with words. I go by actions. This is a Trump strategy to suffocate the news cycle. He puts in the hook, the media takes the bait, everyone goes crazy and talks about it, then Trump does something entirely different. Those not suffering from TDS can see it very clearly.

    Response to gaslighting question 2: No problem at all. I've grown to accept that EVERY politician lies. And most of them lie very frequently. As I said above, I look at action over words. Glad OUR PRESIDENT's Actions are exactly the reason I voted for him.

    The press are supposed to be the arbiters of truth. To keep the politicians honest. The term #FakeNews is solely based on their attempt to control the narrative.

    False Equivalency Argument. This requires a morality response that is designed to attach misconstrued statements to a group of racist outliers.

    The country has been polarized long before Trump. I would say again.... The answer would be on the actions, not words. Until this pandemic, minority unemployment saw historical lows. The Trump administration passed many legislations that promoted the release of majority black prisoners, HUD development programs to infuse federal funds to Urban communities. There is a reason why more black and hispanic Americans approve of the President than they did in 2016.

    I think the administration, like every administration before them, should replace their administration with those loyal to the President. The Obama Administration fired almost all of the Bush Admin when coming into office and the Bush Admin did for the Clinton Admin.

    This was the biggest mistake of the Trump Administration. They left too many "hold-overs" from the previous administration. Notice once firing the White House Security Hold-overs there aren't any leaks?

    So, all your questions were moral and sensational arguments. Just FYI.

    I know exactly what kind of questions they were. Your answers, although not surprising leave me a bit concerned but right in line with the trump cult. Just be cautious of the trump kool-aid though.

    Noted... Make sure you get some help from TDS as well. Maybe we can meet in the middle.

    The press is a lot of things...it's not an individual entity...editorials are not AP news feeds...and the press has always been a vehicle for propaganda and political posturing...the truth is whatever the consumers filters agree with in most cases. One would think that government would be the keeper of truth....the media is a reflection of the nations leadership or lack thereof.....TDS is what Trump's fanbase suffer from...blind faith or in some cases....tiny dick syndrome...Trump really has one move ….insult and contradict himself....and the insults are those of a 3 year old....truly a poor example for the nations youth to soak up...and we're all weighing in here with "words" not actions.

    Doing great Hobbs! How are you and your family? From memory, did you have some health issues you had to overcome? How did that go?

    That's right! Well, I hope everything is good with your father. Did he lose his speech?

    He lost part of it, but he is a trooper.

    He completed 3 months of physical therapy.

    Nowadays we watch some western movies.

    That's what any city needs during a crisis, more criminals on the street.
