False Equivalencies
The amount of false equivalencies lately just makes my head hurt...
"The GOP can write the AHCA behind closed doors and not let anyone read it before voting because the Dems did it with the ACA" ... uh... how is 100s of hours in public discussion, 18 months of political debate, 170 or so modifications to appease the Republicans, airing the discussions on C-SPAN, two special meetings that Obama had with the Republican Congress, etc, etc... the same as what's going on now?
"trump doesn't lie... If Obama and Hillary's mouths are moving, they're lying"
What? I've seen this on a bunch of comment sections. I'm seriously hoping they're all just trolls and don't actually believe that. Yes, all politicians lie, but no other politician lied to the public about sentences they JUST SAID.. on a constant basis...

Re: False Equivalencies
It's just so sad that there is no way to combat this. We are so divided now and the people who support 45 refuse to see any of it! It's all about saying they are winning. I found this article very interesting. Explains a little bit why the lies are believed and perpetuated. But still sad all the same. I really don't feel that we will ever get through this without completely destroying our country first.

Anyone who believes a word out of Trump's mouth is an idiot, plain and simple.

I do believe some of what he says... "I've said that if Ivanka weren't my daughter, perhaps I would be dating her."

Its baffling to me that there are people that continue to support him, who look at the way he has been behaving and say - yes this man is a great leader.
