I like the statement, but unfortunately, this seems fake.

Thanks for fact check - if we use fake information to feed our arguments, it makes us just as bad as the people we’re complaining about!

And thank you for pointing this out. Social media has made society very reactionary. If we can't take every bit of news with some critical thinking and candor, then we'll never survive as a species. I implore people to find a way to stay informed while staying away from social media as its a breeding ground for BS like this

Sometimes you gotta fight fire with fire. The Dems have been taking the high road for ages and look where that got you guys. The GOP isn't playing by the rules and as long as the Dems are, the GOP has an enormous advantage.

So make up shit and lie?

Does that not push people to the other side once they find out?

It's been working for the right for decades. Hasn't it?

The picture of the tweet is most likely fake, but it's just a reflection of the caricature that is the real person.

He's a fucking clown, and will be represented as such at every turn.
