    Trump is a petulant child who wants to get his way, all of this crap is nothing more than image and we all know that. We also know he doesn't give a f**k about the country and that his cult will blindly support him through anything. I can't see why he would cave, and the republicans in congress, who mostly feel the same as we all do, are too spineless to risk angering his cult.

    In all my life this is legitimately the most alarming thing I have ever seen from the government. This is s**t you see in 3rd world countries, not the United States. We have a president who is more than happy to let the country suffer, and an american public, the majority of which hate his guts, powerless to stop him.

    CNN is actually quite a reputable news organization.

    What you have are a bunch of morons that believe a guy who lies all the time....

    Can't wait for those morons to go back under the rock they were under before all this started.

    But I guess anything but Fox News or Breitbart is in the tank for the transnational liberal conspiracy and making up their data or something? They must have had a secret meeting where they all got together and agreed what fake numbers they were going to use, right?

    I may often disagree with you, but this gif is a spot on response. Kudos.

    Keep identifying yourselves as a dumbass. That way we can keep cleaning up our feeds and ignore you correctly.

    What all of these polls fail to show is support among republican for the wall has gone up since the shutdown. Support the shutdown has also gone up among that group. On a side note, support for a president to hide his communications with foreign gov, actually anyone, from his own cabinet, the America gov, and the American people has also gone up. All of these are great signs for the president to continue down the current path.




    I just made all that up, but I think I’m not far off.

    I am mostly conservative and I dislike Trump, but if you think CNN doesn't slant way left, then you must think Fox doesn't slant way right.

    It is not the least trusted, don't believe what a lying jackass tells you. That way you won't be a dumbass.

    Most and least trusted news orgs.

    Well I’m sold, you found an article by Sue Chang from Market Place from a University of Missouri journalism institute’s trustworthiness survey from a year and a half ago. Good work!
