Likewise you have remained silent about Clinton commuting the sentence of a convicted Marxist terrorist, who is now the Vice Chair of the Board of Directors for an organisation who are major financial backers of BLM.
What has any of that got to do with me quoting someone else and posting a link to what they said?

Re: The Donald Trump thread
Trump has now made more than 20,000 false or misleading claims as president, according to the Washington Post’s Fact Checker tally.
The Post reports:
It took President Trump 827 days to top 10,000 false and misleading claims in The Fact Checker’s database, an average of 12 claims a day.
But on July 9, just 440 days later, the president crossed the 20,000 mark — an average of 23 claims a day over a 14-month period, which included the events leading up to Trump’s impeachment trial, the worldwide pandemic that crashed the economy and the eruption of protests over the death of George Floyd in police custody.
The coronavirus pandemic has spawned a whole new genre of Trump’s falsehoods. The category in just a few months has reached nearly 1,000 claims, more than his tax claims combined. Trump’s false or misleading claims about the impeachment investigation — and the events surrounding it — contributed almost 1,200 entries to the database.
The Post noted Trump averaged fewer than five false or misleading claims a day in his first 100 days as president, indicating his tendency to exaggerate or ignore the truth is accelerating as he approaches the November election amid a global pandemic.

And WB has managed just under 18k posts in broadly the same period. Must be a full time job just trying to keep up.

I didn't select a small part of your post. I quoted the entire thing. Did you imagine there was more? Would it make a difference?

It's what I've been saying all along, while the CCMB Propaganda Division (a.k.a lardy & cyril) were busy gaslighting the gullible.
I see the spotlight is now falling on the New York Times & Washington Post for their complete lack of journalism. They were not only activists posing as journalists, they also played a leading role in the Russia collusion hoax. Remember the outcry over a certain president calling the media fake news?

What I don't if you point a finger at indiscretions committed by the Democrats ( and there have been many over the decades ) your labelled as a Trump fan how on earth do fair minded intelligent people get to that assumption .
Classic example they rant about Trumps poor behavior towards woman , which is fair , my god the history books is littered with poor behaviors by Democratic towards .
Balance of argument is not their forte
