    Default Will Trump's lies cost lives? Can we break his spell? Killer cognitive bias.

    With that aside, post actual lies made by Trump, that will be costing American lives, and I'm happy to debate/discuss that lie.

    I can't quite make it out, but who is that life size cardboard cut out behind Adair? One of his fact checkers? A motivational inspiration to achieve greatness?

    I guess we should investigate Politifact a bit before we take their word as gospel. I know, Petey, we'll be in imminent danger of breaching our respective bubbles but it's a risk we'll have to take :

    So, Petey, which of Trump's Lies™ have the most danger of killing people?

    Feel free to prove anything I post to be wrong.

    In this case, you have an owner who ADMITTED he is biased. That calls into question EVERYTHING on that site. And MANY times we have done just that one this site. Would you like me to waste my time and post 5 things that are just 100% incorrect? Would that even accomplish a single thing if I did just that?

    The page I linked to is full of quotes. Are you saying the quotes are false?

    The author of that video didn't speculate on this board that Trump's Lies™ would kill people.

    That would not be in your best interest. You want a real anti gay president?

    Not at all. I'll even concede that they are accurate, if YOU say they are. I'll give ya the benefit in this one...

    but the entire site is called into question, IMO, when you find SO many incorrect things over the years, and you read the owner admitting he is biased.

    If I link to an opinion piece you'll have a point.
