The Story is not that Vance failed in basic history

[edhopper]

The story is that Welker and NBC failed to correct him live and say he is wrong. Without that, they are not producing News, they are broadcasting propaganda.

1. Vance knows basic history. He is a pathological liar.

[Diamond_Dog]

2. Agree, Irish_Dem.

He will come up with any lie in order to fluff up his boss and try to sell his demented power grab. Ohio State and Yale should demand he return his diplomas. What a disgrace he is.

3. Well

they do say any bullshit they want, they know their are no repercussions.

5. His extended family says that he is.

Little something to mull over, Epstein invested 40 million in 2 funds co-founded by Peter Thiel in 2015 and 2016. Vance has been with Theil since 2011. In August 2019 Epstein died. In August 2019 Vance was baptized & joined the Catholic Church. Someone he knew said Vance changed his views.

4. Welker is a RW hack

and MAGA sympathizer.

6. I thought that Jimmy Dave went to Ohio State and Yale to

get his haid full of larnin.

7. Even if they said "I'm going to flag a fact check" and moved on to return to it just after the interview end,

... that would be good.

"In the interview just concluded the VP unveiled a new policy on such and such" ... 15 seconds description ... "We have verified that a statement of the VP was incorrect. The fact is Germany and Japan both separately unconditionally surrended to end WW2."

That would be a big step forward.

Thankfully the CBC here adds statements like "with no evidence" or "contrary to well-established research" when a maga or tRump lies in a clip they want to or need to include.

8. That's how I feel about presidential "debates"

The biggest story from Shitler's debate with Biden should have been the gish gallup of bold-faced LIES he spewed.

9. Why people still watch these networks

Is beyond me. State media. All of them

10. Now the futon fondler probably feels emboldened, when in reality he is 100% WRONG
