Successful at doing this. >> for them, if it aint broke, dont fix it. wash, rinse, repeat. im surprised they havent tried in some ways to do what trump is doing. if i were a democrat, take a clip from lindsey graham talking about process of impeachment and congressional authority. i would say lindsey graham supports impeachment. at some level democrats have to fight fire with fire if they are going to win. >> i look atom freemans column in the "times". it is turning free press into a house of mi...

Be the substance of their argument but rather the repetition of it that matters. a recent study found that when people are exposed to the same false information multiple times, they become numb to it. so even if they know the information is false, it just doesnt sort of register that way anymore. the more we see fake news, look the less basic it becomes. just disinformation a danger to democracy. >> we have heard russia for years and when it was investigated with millions of dollars, 22 months a...
