Finn, why even bother?

Study: 42 percent of Republicans believe accurate — but negative — stories qualify as ‘fake news’

Four in 10 [or 42 percent of] Republicans consider accurate news stories that cast a politician or political group in a negative light to always be “fake news.” [The corresponding figure for Democrats is 17 percent.]
The intent of whell is to deny and frustrate.

Graham: White House staff gave Trump 'really bad advice' on DACA

No doubt that little sociopath Nazi Steven Miller.

Yet there you are, still building your house of cards by investing in one liar over another.

In the meantime, here's more bullshit from the "accused".

Durbin: Trump is a racist for using the term "chain migration".

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/vi...in_chains.html

Durbin: uses the term "chain migration".

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/vi...mp_racist.html

This guy trades in race - baiting like many in the Dem party do, yet we "must" believe him in this instance. Uh...no.

I think what's really going on here is that Durbin is pissed at Trump for "sandbagging" him on immigration, so this is Durbin's way of getting back at Trump.

There's no question that Trump sandbagged Durbin and Graham. There's also no question that Trump is a racist and that he wants to use race as a deciding factor for "merit-based" immigration. Heck, even his designated liar, Sarah Hillbilly Sanders, is no longer denying his "shithole" comment:

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders did not deny Tuesday morning that President Donald Trump had called certain Caribbean and African nations “shithole countries,” telling reporters outside the West Wing that the president had never denied using “strong language.”

"Look, the president hasn't said he didn't use strong language. And this is an important issue. He's passionate about it," Sanders said when asked why Trump reportedly defended the comment to allies while denying it publicly. "He's not going to apologize for trying to fix our immigration system. He's committed to doing that and hopefully Democrats will be too."

SO WHAT??? He used "strong language"? Big f-ing deal. According to those that were there, the room was filled with "strong language" used by multiple individuals. If you don't think "strong language" is used, or had never been used before, inside the White House or in the halls of Congress, you're deluded.

It is "alleged" that he used it specifically about certain countries. So far, only on person at the meeting said he heard it, and that was the guy who claims he was "sandbagged". That person also has a history of playing fast and loose with the facts and with using race as a political weapon.

Like I said, you believe what you want to believe. You've got plenty of folks here who want to believe it just like you.

Poor Whell. Everybody here is wrong and you are the only one blessed with the pure and simple truth.

His strong language is just an outward sign of what his intent is and why people are upset about it. Beyond his language insulting dozens of friendly countries in important parts of the world (and from which many fellow Americans immigrated), the bigger issue is a president with a rich history of racist rhetoric and behavior pressuring Congress to use race as the determining factor in a "merit-based" immigration program. It's racist, immoral, unconstitutional and anathema to the American ideal.
