No you didn’t as has been pointed out and you in fact wound up answering to the exact same tactic put back to you AFTER the tactic was even pointed out and discussed. Congratulations I think you’ve set the bar for today on the level of fail and dumbassery to beat! 🍻

Why? Because I responded?

Your question that you want answered is clearly a false dichotomy and on top of that just plain dumb.

Perhaps you can play that game with the voices in your head and get the answers you crave. Either way, go amuse yourself, please. No one else wants to play with you.

But I answered his question unlike him. And the question can be answered, would you prefer a Democrat or Putin running the country?

I wish Putin were President. But we currently have the next best thing.

My sources are telling me that someone in Hawaii is already working on getting Putin a birth certificate for 2024.

Chris Wallace: Whistleblower spin from Trump Supporters 'Deeply Misleading' by Joe Concha with The Hill on September 27, 2019 at 1:16 pm EDT

"Fox News's" Chris Wallace said Friday that "the spinning that has been done by the president's defenders" over an intelligence community whistleblower's complaint is "astonishing" and "deeply misleading".

The perspective from the "Fox News Sunday" anchor comes as Trump supporters and critics dig in regarding allegations that President Trump pressured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, a leading 2020 presidential candidate, while dangling hundreds of millions of dollars in U.S. aid.

"The spinning that has been done by the president's defenders over the last 24 hours since this very damaging whistleblower complaint came out, the spinning is not surprising but it is astonishing, and I think deeply misleading," said Wallace on "America's Newsroom".

"Let's look at what the whistleblower says, "The whistleblower says that there was a troubling call in which the president asked the Ukrainian president to investigate and to look at the allegation of this doing by Vice President Biden and his son," he continued. "We now have a rough transcript of that phone call and that's exactly what happened. The whistleblower - and this was back in August - said that for a very unknown and surprising reason the administration had held up aid to Ukraine. That was not widely known at the time but in fact, it turns out that it was the case."

"I guess that's all I'm really saying. For a lot of the efforts for a lot of people defending the president and pretending this is nothing, it isn't nothing. It's something." Wallace later concluded.

A person close to Wallace tells "The Hill" that the veteran newsman was not referring to his "Fox News" colleagues during his commentary.

Trump has said he did nothing wrong, and has accused Democrats of starting another "witch hunt" against him, while Democrats believe the whistleblower report is smoking-gun proof of criminal behavior and have launched an official impeachment inquiry.

Polls show the public largely split on the idea of impeaching Trump.

********************
In addition to the "whistleblower" getting much more right than wrong, concerning the July 25th phone call between Trump and Zelensky, I would also point out that per the Intelligence Community's own protocol, 2nd hand information is entirely acceptable. Trump defenders have made a case for this just being "hearsay" even though the Inspector General, Michael Atkinson, has described the "whistleblower's" complaint as being "credible". Finally, Trump defenders have made a big issue of Atkinson alluding to a possible bias on the part of the "whistleblower". However, the Inspector General's preliminary review only says that there was "some indica of an arguable political bias on the part of the Complainant in favor of a rival political candidate,". Trump defenders have run with this, and concluded that this is definitive proof that the whistleblower is just a partisan hack. They never mention the key word "arguable" in that sentence... but that changes everything. Atkinson didn't state that anything was concrete, just that there was an "indication" that the "whistleblower" could "arguably" be biased in favor of another presidential candidate.

...and I fully expect the Trump defenders here to disparage Chris Wallace for expressing his take on the matter. In "TrumpWorld", you are either with him, or you are biased against him and "fake news".
