The fix was in in 2016, and they're going to do it again this year unless we can show them doing it (and then still maybe nothing)

The kGOPb will pull tricks like their lives depend on it. Because it does.

Only right wing press. They are radicals. There is nothing conservative about them, hasn't been for decades.

I was brought up speaking English. I refuse to adopt their dialect or their perversion of my native language. I use words as defined in Webseter's dictionary, not as defined on Sean Hannity's show.

when it's been the conservative press all along. You have your parameters, and I have mine.

But by your own metric, "Foxese" and "Republicanese" aren't really words, and I don't let Sean Hannity define *SHIT* for me.

You're welcome.
