Wonder who this is to come back and argue.
You cannot use reason against folks like this just let it go. Don't acknowledge their issues and they will eventually leave.

I'm surprised CNN is still on the air. How many times have they been caught lying and reporting 'fake news'? Can't believe anybody still gives them any credibility. Personally, I have stopped watching all 'entertainment' cable news, including Fox News. All they care about is ratings, and last I heard, CNN's rating were circling the toilet. good for you. cable news is crap.
CNN is in 22nd, just for reference. it is below the Discovery Channel and ION (which I have never heard of before today)
We watch a lot of old TV shows on ION. But they have a LOT of commercials.... |

22nd most watched cable channel, or 22nd rated news source? |

Intriguing. Almost fifteen year old video that for some reason you found - saved - something - that makes what point? It didn't seem to support your claim of constantly having say excuse me. What difference does it make how old it is? How far back do Democrats go in Trump's life to find things to attack him about? That clip is just one example of what a blithering idiot Blitzer is. . With Trump you only need to go back to yesterday or later today. |

Of course none of the s want to examine Trump’s history at all. Six bancos, vulva grabbing, marital rape, walking in on half naked teenagers, 25+ women on the record about sexual harassment, money laundering, fraud such as Trump U. and it’s $25 million settlement, all the little guy contractors he has ripped off. The guy is a grifting con man extraordinaire. What evangelical in their right mind could support such a cretin so best not to pay too much attention.

Ok, forget answering about your feelings regarding the Donald...went back and reviewed your posting history..got it.. Since you are new here, unless u are old but arranged to come back in as a new member..yes it's possible and has happened...u mentioned another poster not being chastised for what ever...usually that is done privatly by PM..no one else's business and I speak {post} from experience...There are usually many corrections and coachings before some one is banned...This forum has many readers of and a few active posters...I will suggest of the actual posters, the majority lean left...there are some who lean right and they are welcome..it gives us something to discuss..to just pat one self on the back gets tiresome and boring...However ...to troll the forum is not acceptable and recently has been very apparent to most of us...and will suggest...action has been taken to rid forum of Trolling.. Just to clarify what is internet trolling: "...If you’ve been on the internet for any period of time, you’ve likely run into a troll at some point. An internet troll is someone who makes intentionally inflammatory, rude, or upsetting statements online to elicit strong emotional responses in people or to steer the conversation off-topic. They can come in many forms. Most trolls do this for their own amusement, but other forms of trolling are done to push a specific agenda." -------------------------------------------------- Other then that, welcome to the forum...only suggestion by me is to relax, have fun , leave anger at the door...  PS: Personally I like and respect Wolf....see, just a difference of opinion...no biggie. How am I 'trolling'? All I have been doing so far is defending myself from attacks. I have not attacked anyone here. Look at my introduction post. The first person to attack me for no reason was Tennesseer. The attacks continued from then on in the Politics board. Show me where I have attacked anyone here and I'll apologize. "Trolling" on the boards here is anyone that is either a conservative or a Republican. Everyone else is golden here. |

"In Internet slang, a troll is a person who starts quarrels or upsets people on the Internet to distract and sow discord by posting inflammatory and digressive, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into displaying …" U sure know how to provoke folks...also big into starting quarrels and upsetting folks and sowing discords..looks to me a classic case of a internet troll...no question about it...Just saying. |

My personal favorite as tRump trying to tell the public that he inherited a trashed Covid test from Obama. Considering the virus is a whopping 4-5 months old, exactly how? |

Considering the virus is a whopping 4-5 months old, exactly how? The Clintons knew thanks to their loyal supporters in the CIA and FBI that a plague was coming in 2019. They kept this a secret until the 2016 results were revealed. Then they gave their stash of tests to Obama to plant the CDC so Trump would discover them and use them to destroy the reputation of the Republicans thus securing Obama a third term as president. |

Thinking about taking it up again as a way to occupy my brain during all this. |
