      Trump turned down two billions he was offered over the weekend for one deal, no a number of deals, so he will not have a conflict, although he has no conflict because he is a president! [[[ ]()]Trump turns down two billion](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vkLQdgBZXU) HE DID IT FOR YOU UNGRATEFUL BASTARDS! SHOW SOME RESPECT!!!!

            Interesting. Not sure why you felt the need to point out it was fictional - this was a joke. Not exactly sure how you know it was fictional either.

            1. It's printed on a letterhead not used by British intelligence, despite that being the supposed source. 2. It contains numerous factual errors, and more errors continue to be pointed out as time goes on. 3. Trump is a germaphobe who spent his whole life avoiding excessive contact with people or potential disease, but his secret vice is spreading body fluids everywhere with random prostitutes? Really? From looking at it, it appears to use American English more than British English, has horrible spelling errors, and seems influenced by election news of the same time period. I'm sure someone will tear it to pieces soon, but it's already fallen apart in so many ways, it's hard to not call it a blatant fake.

                Russia is responsible for 9/11 for instance. Without it being necessary to arm militants to fight Russia, the Taliban would not have formed and Bin Laden would have never done 9/11.

                Do you have any proof of this? And please don't link typical political garbage, I avoid politics like most rational people. But, do you have something real and concrete? I'm genuinely curious.

                  I'm pro-trump and yet I found that funny. Don't know why people can't laugh more. Maybe if they did then we'd have less politics.

                      If that were true then the so called "libel" law suite would be bogus. Fox's Oriely Factor has been getting away with the same thing for a decade now under same idea. They use tactics like "Some people say" (which fox says) Obama is a Muslim. This is no different other than it is actually believable.

                      Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet. The interesting thing about software is it can not reproduce, until it can.

                        A person you (impersonal, not targeted to you) like files a lawsuit for libel: he did the right thing! He's been unjustly targeted! Proof of innocence. A person you (same as above) don't like files a lawsuit for libel: that b*tard, trying to suppress freedom of information and hide its skeletons! Proof of guilt. So, no,

                        doesn't work for me. And BuzzFeed is a notorious viral news site, which means clickbaiting and scum. Not being journalist they are also basically free of any responsibility: free viral diffamation against anyone! EDIT: Besides: in Italy BuzzFeed is one of the main propagators of racist fake news and populist posts. That's because here it's that kind of posts that gets more clicks nowadays.

                          If you read his next statement, it explains his reasoning. Put to the extreme, the Romans were responsible for 9/11 because you know, Masada.

                            Nah, it's the Babylonians who are responsible for 9/11 because, you know, the destruction of the First Temple. Which leads us right back to Iraq :)

                              You seem to just dismiss the last two decades then. Maybe you need to read up on how things changed in the late 80s due to Reagan and then the emergence of Fox news. Check out "Out Foxed" if you want a blip of it, but there is much more to it than they covered (including the liberal media following suite). Sorry, but you are just wrong. There are no "libel" laws that you speak of and even if there were nothing illegal was actually done by Buzzfeed or CNN. No one will pay a dime. You are just buying in to the Titter Chief and shows you have no clue just as he doesn't.

                                  Russia is the number one threat to humanity. Instead of condemning this regime of darkness and standing up for innocents, Donald Trump has colluded with this evil power to undermine american democracy

                                      THat is a pretty dumb assumption and typical from someone that is brainwashed. I don't read buzzfeed and have no idea what type of content they have. Just stating the facts, and the facts are news media has been allowed since the late 80s after various FCC laws were lifted under Reagan to use shady and practically illegitimate sources, blast opinion as news, and provide a simple one sided argument. I somehow doubt anything will happen and if it were I am thinking class actions will open against Fox faster than you can say Mr. President. But you stick to your guns and keep claiming I read buzzfeed and give two hoots about them. I am sure that will make your argument better :rolleyes:

                                          HRC was probably a crook and a dishonest person, but she was not a danger to humanity. Trump is.
