Read the question closer. namahage Jun 2019 #66

Where does it say that? masmdu Jun 2019 #75

100% FAKE headline by you which is not what the article said. You should have edited it mtnsnake Jun 2019 #88

How about instead of relying on headlines, namahage Jun 2019 #89

Sounds to me like you're completely okay with someone falsifying an article's headline mtnsnake Jun 2019 #115

No surprise really... but, if a lie negatively impacts Bernie, guess just go with it. InAbLuEsTaTe Jun 2019 #114
