Forged documents falls under fake news for me and most everyone else.

The Dan Rather story was not fake. There are questions about some of the documents used to support the thesis but they were never proven to be fake

Because the House vote is the closest thing to a competitive national vote. It’s kind of important to the context.

Yeah, that’s like Dan Rather making the correction that his “George W. Bush Air National Guard” documents are fake, or Rolling Stone issuing a correction for their UVA story. You can’t get the key facts wrong.

The basis of the article is not supported by the facts in the article.

It’s hard to argue they have a mandate when they were walloped in legislative elections

They undermined Bernie and got caught at it and thought there would be no repercussions? Blame the Russians for “hacking” but…

They somehow couldn’t see the writing on the wall that the big issue was globalization. Trump and Bernie both made huge inroads on opposite sides of the spectrum on that single issue. But still democrats thought it was safer to maintain a status quo. Try to please everyone, end up pissing off everyone.

So it is not the candidate’s fault whether they win or lose? That’s new.
