Democrats' hypocrisy in the spotlight following criticism of Trump's tariffs

Roll the tape and watch the first 2 minutes.

  • LOL.
    As ever: mischaracterized, misrepresented, obfuscated, twisted, and conveniently forgets the circumstances, plus the fact that The Orange Lard-Bomb imposed worldwide tariffs. Even on the penguins of Heard and MacDonald Islands.

    @FD1000,

    How can forum participants take you seriously when you repeatedly reference Fox News drivel?

    Exactly.

    Over/under # of MFO posters who will elect to "roll the (Fox Entertainment) tape": 0.5

    BTW, I just can't stop blowing chunks on my screen over this thread, regardless of whatever the heck there is in that video. (I'll never know!)

    Linking a Fox Entertainment video in the OP of a thread to start a discussion or prove a point says everything you need to know about a poster.

    @FD1000,

    Do you realize the reverse is true too when you guys posts lib sources which are the majority of old type media.
    That's similar to saying most university prof have lib ideas that because they are ones.
    But, as usual, none of you can refute what's on the video. The easiest way is to attack the source or the one who posted it.

    An ad hominem fallacious attack is unnecessary. Fox "News" had to admit publicly that what they are presenting is not factual news; it's manipulation. In other words, entertainment of a sort. Facts are facts. Fox "News" is fiction. It's not like this is a new revelation. Present your case via a credible source.

    His case: -> Trump (and Fox) told him it's fake news.

    PS: EVERY news source is lib other than FOX. Source: Trump and FOX ;^)

    I previously posted:

    I stand corrected. Turns out that's not completely true.

    We now know that this particular cult member's brain has dissolved more than most.

    He is apparently capable of thought processes that lead him to believe and to post online that other news sources are the rough equivalent of Fox Entertainment.

    And earth to BS1000, the reason "none of (us) can refute what's on the video" is because none of us would waste time watching a Fox Entertainment video about anything.

    Truth be told, only three of us have even stopped by this thread to comment on how ridiculous it is to use a Fox Entertainment video as a basis for anything remotely factual.

    You doubling down on your position instead of just rolling over was fully expected but still a sad statement about deep the insanity runs in the Red Party.

    Some of us have relatives that are as loony as they come on the far right. I finally gave up and no longer go to holiday, birthday, etc. events at one family's place ... because they play Fox Spews at high volume every waking minute of their lives and basically can't talk about anything else but the latest idiot conspiracy.

    For a while, the "War on Christmas" was all they could talk about, and that's so vapid I could shine it on. But it became so far over the top, so ludicrous, I couldn't stand it anymore.

    Side effect: With all that exposure, I've never heard a single thing reported factually by the Fox propaganda spewers. I don't have to follow a Magat's link to Fox to know what it's worth.
  • A dear, long-time friend asked me to put up his Xmas tree a few years ago. He's a Trumper and he had Fox Entertainment on full blast for the 1/2 hour it took me to hurriedly put up his fake tree.

    I ran home and hosed myself off. Literally. I felt like I had scum all over me. Sadly also had an intense headache for what seemed an eternity after it.

    To post a FE video any investment forum, and then double-down on it with the standard "whoelsedunit" crap is mind-numbing for anyone who hopes to be thought credible.
