about the LA fires they will immediately start talking about Trump. An educated journalists calls the "deflection"


Like I said earlier, I've seen some reporting that Trump has been resorting to hyperbole (or even flat out lying about some things) but that's about it.  And again, I would have been more surprised if I didn't hear that, whether it's true or not. Trump makes shit up. All the time. It's just who he is.

Maybe they do. I quit paying much attention when they used the George Floyd incident to start telling people how to think instead of reporting the news.

I don't know if they are blaming the fires on Trump, but they are heavily criticizing him for condemning their ineptitude. Alleged fact checkers  ::) are out in full force to counter anything Trump says. Not one alleged credentialed, trained journalist  ::)  has found any mis-statements or lies from the LA Mayor or Newsome yet, though.

Trump is also being heavily criticized for politicizing a tragedy where there is loss of life. (which is rich) I wonder if they are going to start pushing to make matches and lighters illegal. After all they only exist to create fire.

That's usually my first clue on who not to watch or listen to. Anyone who tries to tell you what something means or what someone meant when they say something, or when they start injecting their opinion in to a story when they claim to be a journalist. Loaded language is usually another clue that you're in for a load of horse manure.

Not to criticize opinion shows. As long as you take it for just that - an opinion.

In 2014, California passes Prop 1 authorizing the building of new reservoirs for water retention.
11 years later, nothing has been built.
Where's the money that was allotted for that?
The reservoir in the Palisades holds 117 million gallons of water. It's empty, has been for 2 years.

And Newscum quickly backtracks when he's caught in a lie while trying to say Trump is lying in this NBC interview.

The only people who don't know (or wont admit) that Trump constantly lies, is the MAGA crowd. :lol: 

You could pick any source. From Ben Shapiro to Rachel Maddow.

Why would I listen to anything those two insufferable lefty loons have to say?

You sure are heavy on accusations and light on facts.

Just because you're parroting a lefty talking point doesn't make it true.
If he "constantly lies" then surely you'd be able to provide UNBIASED PROOF of it.

Ah the guy that famously didn't vote for Trump and put money on the fact that he wouldn't be elected in2016 is your arbiter of truth... And that video is from pre 2016 when Trump was out shit-talking a wide field of r candidates.
Shapiro is a Trojan horse neo CON
Gotta do better, dude
