So - driving kids off the road with no injuries makes one an actual deplorable.  Murdering and maiming protesters apparently does not, because the victims were not Trump supporters.

Who is saying that the driver of the Charlotesville car isn't a deplorable?

I had a consideration after I heard about Weinstein's conviction.

I wondered when Trump's charges would start.

Very similar examples from what has been reported.

I'm curious if they specifically pursued charges in a way that would allow them to set a legal precedent so they'd apply to Trump.

The guy who was saying he finally found an _actual_ deplorable last week.

I'm assuming that you mean me.  Please site proof of your accusation.

Anyone can read the post you made on "actual deplorables" and decide for themselves.

Meh, he just said "actual deplorables".  I don't think he was trying to launch a defense against the Charlotesville murderer or other deplorables we've listed.

Correct.  But anyone that says anything here that disagrees with HRC gets a nice personal attack, and accused.

"Actual" as in, opposed to articles referencing criticism about a movie, or saying something nice about someone.

Report: Fox News Criticized Its Own Guests For Spewing Lies About Ukraine

"an internal Fox News memo, which centers on the Ukraine timeline and the misinformation surrounding it—and pointedly criticizes several longtime Fox News guests who have spread these lies. The 162-page research briefing book, titled “Ukraine, Disinformation, & the Trump Administration” and written by Fox News senior political affairs specialist Bryan S. Murphy, “openly questions” the credibility of Fox News guests Toensing, diGenova, Giuliani, and former Hill columnist John Solomon, who has since become a Fox News contributor. "

Peddling lies to Fox viewers to benefit and conceal the criminal action of trump and his inner circle. Seems to have been documented.

That headline is fake news.

Why would you care though? Your dear leader has said it will go away by itself in April and people should just go to work.

How do you support a guy who believes the virus is a hoax, but then get upset if somebody threatens to infect you with something you think is a hoax?

Show me where he said it was a hoax.  You're ok with a politician threatening harm to the general public then...got it.

Your president said people should just go to work and there is nothing to worry about it will resolve itself in April. What harm are you talking about?

vows to infect Donald Trump supporters with coronavirus.  Not sure how I can make it any more clear.

You've managed to sidestep two questions.  Let's try again...

Show me the quote where Trump said it was a hoax...and is it fake news?

[wmw999 2,451]

It’s deplorable, OK? That it was sarcastic is irrelevant. That it was stated by a newly-elected city councilwoman who has a penchant for throwing verbal bombs and who’s proud of her attitude that compromise and civility are overrated. Frankly, she would have done great on “The Apprentice” and Trump would have loved her. 

But it was stupid, and just as reflective of Democrats in general as Trump making fun of a reporter with CP. Well, I don’t see nearly as many people trying to justify what she said, most I’ve seen either say it’s stupid or sarcastic (SDNWOTN — sarcasm does not work on the net)

Right - which if you read the article instead of just the headline you would know she didn't do.

I didn't say Trump said it was a hoax. You did say she threatened to infect people with Corona virus. So stop dodging the question, show me where she did it.

It wasn't.

But it was stupid,

Sure, what she did tweet was stupid. But it's also not what you guys are all saying it was.

"Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus. You know that, right? Coronavirus. They’re politicizing it. We did one of the great jobs . . . They tried the impeachment hoax. That was on a perfect conversation. They tried anything, they tried it over and over, they’ve been doing it since you got in. It’s all turning, they lost, it’s all turning. Think of it. Think of it. And this is their new hoax."

Hi Bill,

I, for one, cannot seem to understand why the right wingers on here seem to just grab the headline(s) & fail to actually read the stories that they post.

IMO a rational person would want to look like they know something about the subject.

You didn't include the entire quote.

But you know, we did something that’s been pretty amazing. We’re 15 people [cases of coronavirus infection] in this massive country. And because of the fact that we went early, we went early, we could have had a lot more than that . . . we’ve lost nobody, and you wonder, the press is in hysteria mode.“
