My age has no relevance to this conversation just as your age doesn't either.
You were not lied to about the dossier? Don’t recall? You living under a rock? It was a nothing burger to you and all the other libs that dragged this country thru a horrible false investigation. Gee, just some conversation you know. A lot of us remember the lie, but not you. Wow. Only watched FOX News on this topic I guess. No, more likely you just follow the Dim talking points and not strain that small brain.
Again, I remember news reports on the dossier and in every one that I remember, the questions about the dossier were reported on. On CNN and MSNBC. Also in newspaper sources and other sources.
Yes, talking heads gave their opinions about it all. But again, I knew that was just opinions. They could be wrong they could be right.
It seems that you confused the two. Probably so since this is how Fox News and other right-wing sources presented it all to you. They showed you a clip of a talking head (editorial opinion) and you assumed this was all that was occurring in other news sources. But it wasn't.
Also, if you recall, I hardly ever talked about the dossier on this board because of all the questions revolving around it.
And no, I wasn't just watching Fox News.
You did not watch any news reporting, just the editorial? You did not believe it when the lib media told you 51 former intelligence officials said the laptop was Russian interference?
I watched both, news reporting and editorial. But I could recognize the difference. Could you not?
btw, Russian interference is something completely different from the dossier. It has been proven that Russia interfered in the 2016 election.
You never evaluated the reporting?
Never formulated an opinion?
Of course I did. But again, there is a difference between news reports and editorial opinion. You can't claim editorial opinion on say MSNBC is the same thing as news reporting from NBC News. Same goes with CNN and Fox News.
Yes, one tactic that Fox News (and other right-wing sources) uses is to conflate the two and claim that editorial opinion is all the other sources are doing. But that isn't true.
Just what I thought, complete waste of time. Your lack of intellectual honesty is not surprising. Because you lack IQ.
I am being completely honest with you. What I'm telling you is just challenging what you thought to be true. What you have been told is true.
Instead of attacking me, maybe you should start considering whether you are getting the complete truth from your right-wing sources. Get out of the echo chamber for a little bit and listen to the experiences/thoughts of those who are not right-wingers.
You admitted that you believe politics is about holding power, does not sound much like democracy to me.
Our politicians are suppose to represent us and do the work of the people. Not gain power and rule.
Politics is about obtaining and holding onto political power. It is about exercising political power to accomplish political goals. This is true for Republicans and Democrats.
Don't you want Trump Republicans to have political power over the next two years? Of course you do. Come on man lol.
And yes, our politicians are supposed to represent us and do the work of the people. In order to do that though, they must gain political power and rule. Trump can't do what you want him to do if he doesn't hold political power or office, now can he?
Right-wingers desire political power and influence just as much as those on the left do. This is how our political system works.
