Now you know that I love challenges, so since you seemed to have rejected my original response to this "challenge" I'll make a go of it one more time! In exchange you have to respond to my challenge fair enough?

Here's your challenge:


"i have put this challenge out before but it gets ignored . sit down , get a piece of paper out , go through nbc cbs abc , cnbc msnbc npr cnn HL and mark down positive to negative stories about trump . you will see the truth . sty ebb shark and others wont take the challenge . they fear the results."

I'll admit that there's an overwhelming number of, shall we say, not very flattering stories about Trump on a lot of these networks. So, you're right about that! Now in as much as why they are there, I'd say that he's earned every one of these reports. In fact, my challenge to you might prove why he's earned them so here it is...

List the positive stories that has earned this dude praise that he himself hasn't stepped on! I'll bet that you can't list more than 20 instances over the 2 1/2 years that he's been in office.



Sty your challenge would require people to be honest with what they consider negative coverage vs whats accurate coverage that is just unflattering to the President. After all, some of his actions that you or I might consider as negative are according to our resident Trumper thumpers., exactly why he was elected (by a minority of the country mind you).

So you were being literal?

Our allies, and our enemies, are finally having to pay their due. They may find statements comical, but the actions are what matters. Our allies are paying more of their actual share for defense.

BTW, fuck Macron. How is France doing? Are those Yellow Jackets still trying to cause an uprising?

As for Canada, they have a more provenly corrupt leader than ours was expect3d to be.

Then there is England and BREXIT. They are finally realizing their sovereignty was being trounced.

Yes I was being literal. The world is literally laughing at our President as I said. You asked me who was laughing so I provided that for you. When world leaders laugh at our President's comments, behavior, and incompetence, yeah that's kind of a problem when it comes to the credibility of our nation around the world. The fact that you seem OK with it as you deflect to other off topic issues just shows more cult like behavior.

It is not OK that world leaders are laughing at our President' incompetence, that should be obvious. But not to The Cult, nope just more excuses.

That is true on both sides of the Trump support. Can you be honest about the coverage? I absolutely see a crazy amount of skewed coverage on Trump,mostly negative. Hell, you yourself have skewed what he has said about things like all Mexicans being racist or that he wanted to block all Muslims from entering this country. And I know that you know what he really said and intended. yet you still use these erroneous representations of his statements in your arguments. Now does he deserve negative press? Absolutely because he does say and do stupid shit. He has no filter. This has been my beef all along with the fake news. There is no need for it. Trump will give you enough ammo by himself, shit doesn't need to be made up. It just weakens the case against him, IMO.

now its a crutch from the so called conservative . you guys are amazing . stop parroting foolishness from those sources and maybe you wont get hit with that crutch

This is what I'm talking about. Blaming the MSM every time Trump is criticized is not a good look, just makes you look small and foolish. And you do it every single time.

Here's the video of the UN delegates literally laughing at Trump's boastful claim. Next you hear Trump acknowledging the response, which he clearly said he was not expecting. The MSM did not fabricate this video and they did not dub in Trump's response. So stop already with the constant MSM excuse and address the contents of this video.

I think we can all agree on this, at least I hope so. No doubt the MSM is slanted and on the attack, just as Fox was with regard to Obama. Is it worse now with Trump and became personal? Pretty clear that it has But again the previous President was not heard bragging about assaulting women or seen mocking the disabled. So yeah Trump kind of brought the attacks on himself. Now mis-representing the story or flat out lies are a different story, over the top and out of line.

I have actually only repeated exactly what has come out of his mouth. Its on video if one cares to look it up. The difference is you would like to mitigate what he says and the tone he says it with because on some level you agree with him. And it sounds exactly like what it is to say, lets ban all Muslims and Mexico is sending us rapists and murderers... both sound racist as fuck. And the only way to even attempt to make it sound less so is to say.. well he wasnt really talking about ALL Mexicans and Muslims.

I agree he has no filter and says stupid shit. But I dont think there is any accident or slip up involved. He is playing to his base to stoke up their fears and misgivings and he knows exactly what he is doing and will continue to skirt that edge because its worked for him. At least with his base.

ok when the MSM at a 94% rate carries negative stuff on him one has to wonder . the MSM has been horribly wrong on this whole russian thing . simple questions dont get asked , most real news they dont cover

i understand how you are so woefully misinformed because you listen to crap reporting

i have put this challenge out before but it gets ignored . sit down , get a piece of paper out , go through nbc cbs abc , cnbc msnbc npr cnn HL and mark down positive to negative stories about trump . you will see the truth . sty ebb shark and others wont take the challenge . they fear the results .

any news organization that has a 94% positive or negative story rating probably is full of shit . 70-30 60 to 40 should be about right

next read , rules for radicals by saul alynsky . it lays out how to make the US a socialist state . check and see if that isnt happening already . again the above fear that result as well

my suspicion is you fear the results too . you talk about my closed mind yet you are the same

i trust conservative reporting . i dont trust socialist reporting

2 yrs ago i called out what was going to happen and 100% of it has come to pass i was mocked and so fort

most of you dont have the inclination to really investigate anything . i have put up sworn testimony , and documents proving my point . in return i get spin , word games , conspiracy nonsense etc and left wing propaganda

i cant use rush or breitbart or hannity or ingram or carlson or elder as any kind of source but you push garbage like the MSM , the huffington post or other george soros run out fits and call them gospel

the only people being decieved are the" useful diots " that is quoted by alynski which people should of read if they had any real point of having anything better then a cavemans understanding of politics

saying trump supporters are nothing more then blind zombies and they buy everything trump does and excuse everything he does is just intellectual laziness and pathetic

some of that is to get a rise out of people (trolling ) some of it is parroting , some of it is just plain ignorance , and some of it is just trying to lead someone into a gotcha moment

all these little twist of what socialism is wont work with me , you better come to the table with more then what you are bringing

so you are free to vote for the socialist candidate you will be getting but be prepared because there is no such thing as utopia

i get stupid responses from posters talking about how fox news has more viewers because conservative are fat slobs sitting around watching TV . any moron who thought about it might ask, why ? could it be they are unreliable and have proven to be so ?

So much of this is not attributed to me so not sure why it was directed my way. Did I say a word about socialism? Did I call conservatives fat slobs? No dad, I did no such thing.

The fact that you are claiming my sources are bias (which they are) and constantly report negative things on Trump (which I have acknowledged as well) but you can believe sources such as Hannity and Breitbart and claim they are not biased with an agenda confirms how full of shit you are. I mean that's just embarrassing to make that claim, they are biased too Dad. They have an agenda just as CNN does, that is beyond debate yet here we are.

And yeah you have bought every single thing Trump has sold. I have asked you to show where you disagreed with him and you came up empty. So there's that. I have posted several things I disagreed with regarding Obama. I acknowledged all the faults with Hillary throughout. Now we get to you. You have never been critical of anything Trump has done or said. Ever. You buy every single thing your boy is selling. Nobody's perfect, even your President. But to you he is beyond any form of criticism. That's how a cult works Dad.

1. You're not that dense, c'mon man! When someone says that they are going to do something and then do exactly that, what they said and did were factual!

2. Now you're changing the goalpost and narrative.

3. The as a government entity it run well for the reasons why it was formed.

There are ways where government intervention into our lives creates more liberty. Tell you what, later today, I'll give you the answer that appears to be escaping you.

1- it is factual they said that. What they said is not factual.

2- I changed nothing. What was changed?

3- makes no sense.

4- I can’t wait.

Sometimes comments are funny.

They aren’t laughing at his policies because they are finally being held to a standard and called out for not meeting it.

The credibility of the nation is not an issue because he is carrying through with his claims. Credibility falters when people don’t follow through such as drawing a red line and doing NOTHING.

I don’t care about foreign nations. I don’t care how they want the US run. As a matter of fact, if a foreign like how things are here, they are probably getting something out of it without proper payment.

What incompetence are you referring? Congress is the one they are laughing at because they refuse to accept the legal findings of the man that hired 19 Clinton hitmen lawyers.

Not caring about foreign nations is incredibly ignorant. We rely on our allies as they rely on us, to think we can go it alone without relationships abroad is idiotic.

I think the incompetence was pretty clear in my first post. The President of the United States is laughed at visibly at the G7 Summit over his ignorance with regard to NATO. This simply can't happen and the fact that this is no big deal to you confirms your cult like mentality that he can do no wrong, even when he is wrong and laughed at by the world.

trum.jpg Oh look, they're all smiling at laughing. It must directed at Trump.

tr.jpg Here's another picture from the same summit. Hmmm, what do we have here. Spouse swapping. The point is... don't be so gullible to any picture you see.

The “false theory” was put out by the Nazis themselves who named their party National Socialist and adopted a 25-point socialist platform that you can look up online

More typical leftist BS

Imagine if Democrats continued to insist Hillary is the elected president, Stacey Abrams is Georgia’s Governor, and Andrew Gillum is Florida’s. Oh wait, you don’t have to imagine.
