(3,284 posts)that caused us to go to war, and not saying that 9/11 itself was a hoax. It's definitely unclear from what they wrote, however.

(3,284 posts)No, that's not sufficient at all, but then the average American is the one deciding who will be elected. Therefore, yes it bothers me that the general American electorate is being fed crap by MSM.

As I see it, the prevailing pattern is Trump is reported as saying something that suggests he's wholly, utterly, unqualified; the Clinton campaign or a supporter is then reported to make a statement to that effect; and a soon following published media segment about Trump confirms in both concept and detail the statement about Trump being utterly and wholly unqualified was absolutely correct.
IMO, Trump doesn't get much serious challenge because he's not really taken seriously, and is always expected to self-demonstrate the reasons for that.
