So pointing out Trump making BS claims means that I'm a liberal?

I don't follow the logic here

I guess the question might be why are you guys ok with blatant misinformation like this?


I don't think almost anyone is. What baffles me is people that hone in on something insignificant (if meant deliberately here) yet still tune in to networks that are consistently proven to give disinformation on topics much more important.

It's like one big fricking game of gotcha. Why? The economy is booming, wages are up, quality of life is improving (not quality of feelings for some). Why are people just constantly looking for something to bitch and complain about?

Of course not. Anyone critical of the Orange Demagogue is a "liberal" by dictionary definition, right?

I fail to see how willfully misrepresenting economic news is considered insignificant.

Would you tolerate that behavior from a politician that you didn't like? Highly doubtful.

Son, I can read a normal distribution. If my IQ does not exceed yours by at least two full standard deviations, it would surprise the crap out of me.

There is 0 evidence to believe that it is true. A spokesperson was questioned directly about it and did not validate the claims.

See here's the deal with people like you. If tomorrow NUCOR says it's opening up 4 new facilities you would still be on here saying, "yeah but Trump lied, he said it was US Steel."

That's a pretty silly hypothetical

If he just misspoke and got the companies confused it would be one thing

Doesn't appear to be the case however

Thanks..

So when they make a decision to open up more later will the media retract? Probably not. I'm not sure what the story is here. We already know he takes liberty while bragging. They may not have plans for 6 but could have plans for 3. Does that change the point? They are expanding. What we don't know is if Trump accidentally mentioned something that the company didn't make public or commit to just yet.

The rumor was started by a Clinton staffer

The people that believed it for years and still believe it are all complete morons

You say that as if it is a certainty

It isn't

Seems like the real story is no one has a problem with him making these false claims.

It's not healthy to have cult followings that don't care about lies and truth

Is this like the time Trump got that call from "the head of the Boy Scouts" that never happened?
