    I believe I heard this before. Yes I did..

    At a campaign rally on Friday, Donald Trump warned that Hillary Clinton is scheming to “rig the debate by using facts” in their first televised face-off, on Monday.

    “You just watch, folks,” Trump told supporters in Toledo, Ohio. “Crooked Hillary is going to slip in little facts all night long, and that’s how she’s going to try to rig the thing.”

    “It’s a disgrace,” he added.

    The billionaire drew a sharp contrast between himself and the former Secretary of State by claiming that his debate prep “involved no facts whatsoever.”

    “I am taking a pledge not to use facts at the debate,” he said, raising his right hand. “I challenge Crooked Hillary to take that pledge.”

    He also warned that unless CNN, which is hosting the debate, promises to forbid the use of facts, he might pull out of Monday’s contest. “I’m only going to debate if I’m treated fairly, and facts don’t treat me fairly,” he said.

    At CNN, a spokesperson assured Trump that the network would do everything in its power to keep the debate “as free of facts as possible.”

    “We have a well-established practice at CNN,” the spokesperson said. “If the candidates start straying into facts, data, or other verifiable information, we have instructed the moderators to cut them off.”


    But back to reality.

    Trump campaign now said Carter Page has no role... Just one small problem. Just in March, Trump named Page as 1 of 5 members of his foreign policy team in a recorded meeting.

    A verifiable lie. Most things Trump voters say are questionable as soon as they're said and frequently just nonsense. It's a real talent.

    Perhaps I am misinterpreting your response, but that article you posted is satire.

    Politifactbias is biased.

    I'm waiting for your apology, but that is silly to expect one. The alt-right is all about posting braindead memes in lieu of actual rhetorical substance.

    Why don't you just stick to posting memes anyway? At least we can laugh at the memes instead of feeling sorry for you.

    RL doesn't live in reality, so satire it is.
