Hey Whell, why do you suppose your fave "news" sources at Faux, or Limblow never win this most prestigious of journalism prizes? But there I go, asking you to think again. Sorry.

We have an oppressive health care system and that isn't going to change because the Democrats have fulfilled their promise.
You think 'corporatist' = 'fascist.' This view edits out the authoritarian and militarist aspects of fascism.

Do not and my view is in part built on our authortarian and militaristic nature. Early on his first term FDR was concerned about how many of his supporters wanted him to be an authoritarian. Have you seen our military and what it cost?

A typical nonsense story from Faux "News". They just make shit up, with no basis in fact, to rouse their non-thinking audience like our resident idiot Whell. It would be laughable were it not so sad.

Yes there was an upsweloing of fascism even among Democrats in the early 30's. You're on much less
firm ground with Obama inho.

Donny calls NYT 'fake,' then reads NYT article he likes

At a business roundtable in Minnesota, President Donald Trump called the New York Times "fake" before reading a New York Times article about the GOP tax cuts that he appeared to appreciate.

I still can't decide who's the bigger moron: Donny or Whell.

What if Fox News covered Trump the way it covered Obama? It would look like this:

Would be hilarious were it not so sad. Hypocrisy at its worst. Yet the MAGAMorons are convinced that Faux is the only "real news"...

I'd be interesting in Whell's comments on this.
