I Found Out Why Fact Checkers are So Anti-Trump: It Actually Makes Total Sense

Just by electing as many old white males as you can, but you will have ALWAYS had a black president. For 8 years. ; )
Current Dem field:
1st Place: White male geezer
2nd Place: White male geezer
3rd Place: White female geezer

Celebrate diversity!

Yeah, if there are 29% more Democrats than Republicans in the population, it would be biased to oversample Republicans in order to get equal numbers. Do you think they should also sample equal numbers of Greens, Libertarians, Constitution Party supporters, Socialists, Communists, etc.?
So you think Democrats make up 29% more of the population...

Odd... there were only 3 million more Democrat voters. Of the total population being approx 330 million, that's just over 1% more.

Unless you're going to say that you know that people who don't vote at all WOULD vote Democrat... ?? If they don't vote, how could you possibly know?

1. Of the voters in the presidential election, Clinton’s 3 million vote margin was a 4.6% margin over Trump ... for one of the least enthusiasm-inspiring Democrats in recent history, running against one of the most enthusiasm-inspiring Republicans.
2. History shows that Democratic margins increase as turnout increases. Likewise, people who are prevented from voting by voter suppression are disproportionately Democrats which is why voter suppression is so beloved by Republicans.

Trump...the one-man wrecking crew of the huge GOP Evangelical vote...is “one of the most enthusiasm-inspiring Republicans”.

Perhaps...among some smallish subset of GOPers. For most conservatives - certainly those of faith - even those who actually voted for him held their noses. As an independent who votes conservative/Libertarian, I can tell you Trump depresses turnout for lots of us.

Lordy, your tales are uniformly deranged.

at least you are not an ageist. and all of them are about the same age as trump, and all of them tower over that POS clown like an eagle soars over a rat being eaten by maggots in a gutter. do you think his 12,000 lies since being elected is a sign of how big a geezer he is and how he cannot remember what day it is, much less what the truth is, or just what a dishonest con man he is and always has been?

are you trying to be sarcastic? there have been no similar football type pep rallies in red state arenas for any republican candidate since reagan, who was almost universally loved by repubs, as there has been for trump. you are right that maybe only 40% of the republican base love his lies and corruption and bigotry and sexism, but their almost cult-like devotion to Trump makes up for the rest in sheer adulation. the evangelicals might actually believe he is the Chosen One, that is how bizarre and goofy they are.

Still nothing on the very significant delta between how Biden’s statements are checked versus how Trump’s are checked? Look at the comparative percentages and try...just this once...try to respond with relevant, good faith content.
how are they judged differently? what are you talking about? all fact checkers use documented quotes, tweets that either biden or trump have said and can be confirmed so easily because they are on tv saying it or their tweets leave a paper trail that can be documented...right? are you saying there is a difference in how their quotes and tweets are collected and documented, and somehow favor Biden?

Once these comments, quotes, tweets can be collected and then fact checked, how do the various fact checkers judge biden's comments and quotes any differently than they judge Trump's? what method do they use for one, but not the other?

What in the hell are you guys crying about?

Sourcing. Good grief. Look at the comparative percentages. Significant data sourcing conventions used by candidate name.

None of these 3 "fact checkers" have weighed in on the latest NYTs debacle on Kavanaugh...

Factcheck
Politifact
Snopes.

I wonder why?
