And yet the pro trump supporters take away is: see, the media just finds one little misstatement and hammers it on and on.

It just doesn't matter. The bar is set that low so long as they win.

That he actually only won the battleground states by 80,000 votes with clouds of suspicion surrounding claims of voter suppression by the Republican election officials in charge of those states.

He "won" the EC by 80,000 votes. That is not a huge margin.

At least according to the 'Failing New York Times', and you know, facts. As far as elections go, his victory puts him in the 20th percentile, so probably about the same place he is in hand size rankings...

".. leader of the band of madhatters.. "

The leader of the band of Mad Hatters occupying the White House has already insulted allied world leaders, issued illegal and badly written orders, impugned a “so-called” judge appointed by his own party, and appointed the least-qualified cabinet ever. The first secretary of state was Thomas Jefferson. Trump appointed a big-oil executive with close ties to Russia. The first treasury secretary was Alexander Hamilton. Trump appointed a former Goldman Sachs exec who got rich foreclosing on homeowners. The national security advisor lasted 24 days.

He seems to consistently ignore reality in favor of his own version.

If we're attacked or something, will he just ignore the facts and do nothing? Will he blame somebody else?

That's what I find scary about this.

he was supposedly given, then tries to change the subject. It doesn't matter if you had a "substantial" win, you oleaginous weasel. You didn't have a more substantial win than those you claimed to, which was the topic at hand.

The same goes for his inexplicable defensiveness with the Jewish reporter on the threats to Jewish institutions.



If you have to keep repeating that you're not a racist, or anti-Semitic, then something's wrong.

Had a guy come into the office and about every third statement was "I'm a Christian" as he tried to explain that something was not his fault.

His neighbor told us that he got fired from a gov't job for stealing.

"I'm not anti-Semitic" either. I prefer to be judged by my actions, not by my words. When someone becomes so defensive at the mere suggestion, they're hiding something.

The problem isn't that journalists have actual facts; the problem as they see it is that the media is "attacking" Trump with those facts. And when he responds with, "Meh, whatever," they just eat that shit up.

His believers have been bred over the years to think facts themselves aren't important anymore. And that's a problem for self-governance.
