The Associated Press Looks back at the FALSE & Misleading Claims Made during the Democratic Convention

[Franisdaman]

I know only one side is allowed in this forum so my apologies for any feathers ruffled. And I am sure there will be a whole lotta "but, but, but Trump...."

And before somebody calls me or anyone from the Associated Press MAGAts or cult members, I have made it clear that I can't stand either party, that Republicans are stupid for not nominating someone who could serve in the White House only up to 8 years and that Trump is unfit for office.

FACT FOCUS: A look back at false and misleading claims made during the Democratic convention

While Trump has said in the past that he would support a national ban on abortion, he said Thursday morning on Fox & Friends: “I would never.

Actually, the Republicans did nominate someone who could serve 20-30 years, but that all depends on the judge and jury.

I skimmed it quickly, but I didn’t see anything AP pegged as false.

 

[TarponSpringsNole]

Cool.

who also lies just to lie.

Pretty weak criticism it seems to me

Was going to post this. They said things like technically true and then gave context. There’s no lies there. There is the normal political slanting

 

[noStemsnoSTICKS]

No way! Politicians stretching the truth???

Cool post bro.

You think OP read it?

Did you read the piece?

It’s cute when the right pretends to care about lies

 

[noStemsnoSTICKS]

No should it for your captain obvious posts.

How about some flow charts illustrating how hot it is in the summer time?

Yeah, but the AP isn’t even asserting any lies in this piece.

its cute when one side calls the other side hypocrites

 

[Huey Grey]

These attack lines are almost as low energy as Trump.

the far left wing echo chamber on here is cult like....

It is - that's why you and others get called out for it.

 

[Randall Stanhope]

Keep going with that line of thought...

Politicians are known liars and cannot be trusted.

Bigger government is synonymous with lying untrustworthy politicians having more power.

Leftists think bigger government is the answer to most of our problems...

Hmmm... the logic went all wonky for leftists in that last sentence.

Took virtually no time to show OP's ass on this one. You're right.

When trump was president, in which ways did he make the government smaller?

Inauguration crowd size.

You mean bigger government that dictates to women about their reproductive health? Or the funding of big oil? Subsidies to farmers? Vouchers for schools?

GTFO

That's why, if it were up to me, he wouldn't be the republican nominee.

Do you think bigger government is the answer to most of our problems?

another example of how the far left wing echo chamber on here is cult like....

the echo chamber cult of HBOT will not stand for this AP article!

Yep, he acted like a leftist democrat in that regard.

Thanks for agreeing that that is a bad thing.

Dems understand both sides lie, but one side lies waaaaay more than the other and people still love him.

Well…that’s a lie. You said

Franisdaman:

And Trump isn’t mentioned once other than by you prior to your post. The AP would like to look through all your posts. TIA.

So you believe in "my body my choice" *

*Except in regard to vaccines.

Seems like the left is handling the article just fine as there's really nothing to it. You, on the other hand, are having a hard time with being shown as a ignorant rube.

Another "but, but, but Trump...."

As I predicted in post #1.

 

[Formerly Rockymtnole]

And now Fran shows himself to be incapable of admitting he overreacted. (And probably didn’t read the article before posting).

Reminds me of little kids who trip and fall and then get up and say “I meant to do that!”

He realized he looks foolish and is too prideful to back off now. So he’s desperately scrambling to turn this into something else.

if you are going to make a point, at least try to make some sense.

good lord.

LOL - that's some backpedal. I believe someone should have a choice over the care they receive for their body unless and until it has the possibility of spreading disease to someone else.

Your debate skills are poor.

and? It's 1 side vs the other. This is like saying ripping on someone for speeding 65 in a 60 while not caring that the other person is going 100.

And I'm in a cult?

 

[franklinman]

Oh good, i always wanted to join a cult, that didn't lie. Looks like i made the right choice with da dems.

I’m just wondering how you could make a very specific prediction in your OP and then lie that it had been fulfilled when it clearly hadn’t. You’re lying in a thread where you make accusations of lying. Not a good look.
