Broadly speaking, most of the falsehoods levelled against Trump fall into one or more of four categories, each of them drawing from and feeding into four public personas inhabited by the President.
They are:
*Donald Trump: International Embarrassment *Trump the Tyrant *Donald Trump: Bully baby *Trump the Buffoon.
Some of these claims are downright fake, entirely fabricated by unreliable or dubious web sites and presented as satire, or otherwise blatantly false. But the rest — some of which have gained significant traction and credibility from otherwise serious people and organizations — provide a fascinating insight into the tactics and preoccupations of the broad anti-Trump movement known as “the Resistance,” whether they were created by critics of the President or merely shared by them.
Generally speaking, we discovered that they are characterized and driven by four types of errors of thought:
*Alarmism *A lack of historical context or awareness *Cherry-picking of evidence (especially visual evidence) *A failure to adhere to Occam’s Razor — the common-sense understanding that the simplest explanation for an event or behavior is the most likely.
Infused throughout almost all these claims, behind their successful dissemination, is confirmation bias: the fuel that drives the spread of all propaganda and false or misleading claims among otherwise sensible and skeptical people. Confirmation bias is the tendency to look for, find, remember and share information that confirms the beliefs we already have, and the tendency to dismiss, ignore and forget information that contradicts those beliefs. It is one of the keys to why clever people, on all sides of every disagreement, sometimes believe stupid things that aren’t true.
Most of the falsehoods leveled against that lying sack of shit in the WH are 200% true. Snopes admits much of this waste of time was meant to be satire and not taken seriously, which you didn't bother to copy and paste.
The worst thing about Drumpf is the idiots that follow and vote for him. To them, nothing this asshole ejaculates if a lie.
Oh Gee!! Imagine that - our president is golfing. BLAH--BLAH and double - BLAH...
Major whatever, people!! The masses who voted for him and the RNC DO. Not. Care.
Would be awesome urilizing these forums in a way that when trolled with misinformation, nonsense and lies, our collective diligent effort meets the highest standards of factual information and honesty.
Of course, always grateful to fields that toil even when the mid-day nonsense is running full steam.
On another note, even I LOL with the 1:01pm Anon post.
Now what were you saying about confirmation bias, as if no-one else had ever heard of it? So while we're playing "Captain Obvious", let me introduce you to the Dunning-Kruger effect:
Drumpfuck admitted the wall won't stop the flow of drugs. It won't stop the flow of determined immigrants. He needs to stop the flow of Americans moving to Mexico where living is cheaper.
ABC poll showed Drumpfucks approval at 36%. Drumpfuck says being close to 40 % at this juncture is good and then bawled about ABC being the least accurate poll last election. Considering HRC won by 3 million votes, it seemed pretty accurate to me.
Drumpfuck's whine of the day says HRC's getting questions in advance for debate is a crime and Drumpfuck Jr is innocent of any crimes. Plus he says the Russia probe is still fake news.
Thanks for weighing in. I will do everything in my power to get that crazy-ass, bitch-criminal behind bars ASAP.
What community would we have without concern(ed) trolls such as yourself? Thank you for providing the guiding light. I was so confused before I heard from you.

Damn right. Lock her up. No one is safe with HRC at large.

Money is nice, but being able to speak my mind is better.
"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)" ~Philebrity~
"One of the most precocious and hilarious Black political minds on the net. Ive been a long-time fan!" ~Asad Malik~
"..While most of what he writes is tongue-in-cheek, his space is a safe house for candid discussions about race, especially in the comments section, where people of all colors meet." ~~Daniel Rubin, "The Philadelphia Inquirer"~~
"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."
~~Richard Fausset, "L.A. Times"~~~
"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"Half a century after Little Rock, the Montgomery bus boycott and the tumultuous dawn of the modern civil rights era, the new face of the movement is Facebook, MySpace and some 150 black blogs united in an Internet alliance they call the AfroSpear.
Older, familiar leaders such as Rev. Jesse Jackson, Rev. Al Sharpton and NAACP Chairman Julian Bond, are under challenge by a younger generation of bloggers known by such provocative screen names as Field Negro, thefreeslave and African American Political Pundit. And many of the newest struggles are being waged online." ~Howard Witt-The Chicago Tribune~
"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together." ~Chicago Tribune Reporter, Howard Witt~

This makes his what, 100th trip since he was elected.
"Beached White Whale spotted on golf course. More news at 11".
Why don't you show us your picture Field, so we can get a real laugh.
His royal imperial travesty helps Jim look for his golf ball.
A desperate Trump scuttles across the border to Canada to beg for asylum as the Feds close in to arrest him.
Pic is a metaphor for Drumpfuck's legal woes- deep rough.

Epic ground breaking of southern security wall.
You're not an insane loser twisted by hate and despair, Doug.
You're a genius that doesn't receive the accolades you deserve.
Don't ever stop telling us just how evil President Trump is.
We need your reasoned and well-informed opinions to help us get though these, the darkest days in human history.
Drumpfuck admitted the wall won't stop the flow of drugs. It won't stop the flow of determined immigrants. He needs to stop the flow of Americans moving to Mexico where living is cheaper.

That's right mike, Clinton has committed several serious crimes, Trump Jr. committed no crime, and the Russia probe is Fake News.
