Democrats Don't Have To Lie Like Republicans - What's Up With That?

I watch Kellyanne lie her ass off night after night. Then I watch Hillary's surrogates, and they never tell lies.

I wonder why the press never points out the fact that Democrats just don't have to lie.

If the "press" was actually "fair" we wouldn't even have Republicans.

Food for thought.

of republicans don't care about honesty, or reality..

As long as they hate people that don't look like them, they're fine with whatever bile comes out of their mouth.

In the 90s it was called spin. With the changes in the media since then, they just lie.

It has become this side said this and that side said that.

They have done incredible damage in terms of unraveling our concensus, undermine confidence, and interrupting our prosperity.

They are toxic.

Albeit, Trump is like a ringmaster at a circus with a herd of elephants and lots of clowns.
