I’m not in NY but do they ever trot out a lineup of Rose-Jennings-Lee-Anthony-Porzingis?

The only thing Trump may have going for him will be that he knows where “the bodies are buried” so to speak. He will air all their dirty laundry if GOP screws him too hard. He may even swing his support to Dem. Like you said, everything feels possible with this nimrod.

He’s going to be impeached. At some point that blind trust he sets up or the fact that his kids will “run the business” will be grounds to impeach. Those, or Bannon will drag him into something.

We truly are in a post-racial, America. Right, Republican leadership?

I will say, there’s some risk, but the markers are more stoked than pissed at President Cheeto. However, rising interest rates might make a home sales flat in 2017, so keep an eye on those.

Don’t sell yet! Most of the trade deals he discussed aren’t changing, and you have at least six months before the market truly reacts.

Anecdotal story: while taking a walk today in a scenic town north of San Francisco, I saw a few changes to the scenery:

The press takes a lot of needless effort to add the word “allegedly” to so many stories, and here...nothing.

Any center/center-left white person, a group largely on the fence about Hillary, had an excuse and motivation to not show up or “vote their conscience” with Comey’s letter and investigation. These people are idiots.

I was buying a sandwich Wednesday, and while surrounded by white dudes, thought “you motherfuckers did this” in the most bitter hostile mental tone. I’m sure my face reflected this. Then I sat down to eat and noticed two women eyeballing me with the same distrusting look. It was weird!

What’s also great is that they don’t get a production drop when Nance is out there. Like 48 minutes (or more if both out there) of relentlessness from the PF position. It’s almost strange how the Lakers have 2 players who have nearly the exact same play style and skill set at the same position (though, I think Randle…

Totally. I see it. And I’m with you. The point I might be circling here is that FN and most who work there believe their own bullshit and any other bullshit that conforms to their worldview. The vast majority of Fox employees and higher ups don’t view themselves as bias, or at least, don’t view themselves as skewing…

I’m making a comparison between the people who would view either as legitimate news sources. There has to be a recognition that those watching this propaganda, state- or corporate-sponsored, choose to do so, then choose to believe it.

You’re making a lot of assumptions here. I’m sure the people who believe state media in other countries proportionately are the same number who believe Fox News in the US.

Thank you. I’ve been saying this anywhere and everywhere. This was basically the exact same number of people who voted Romney except this time Clinton received 5 million less votes than Obama nationally.

It’s not just the US. We didn’t even invent it. What you are describing is worldwide. It’s just run by governments in other countries.

Bias always exists in news. The mere act of choosing which stories to report is a bias. The ability to cover facts over opinions mitigates that somewhat, but arranging how the facts and opinions are presented (and thus, how analysis is presented) also plays into certain biases.

If you look at the vote totals, and not the percentages in each demo, on the whole Trump pretty such won all the same voters Romney had in 2012. The difference is that Clinton didn’t get the same turnout as Obama. (He got 65m in 2012; she got 60m).

This conversation has a long, albeit as bitter, tradition:
