      I just learned that air conditioning was invented to improve conditions for printing, not to keep people cool.

                  no I'm sure they are not aware of the fact it is faked. But of course if you were to provide PROOF that it is fake... they would call you a racist or some other type liberal retort.

                    Well the first hint that it is fake news is "Dow Joans" instead of Jones. Add that to this article. Fake Trump tweet about the 'Dow Joans' - Business Insider

                    I am amazed that I didn't find a Snopes fact check. Oh that is right, Snopes is a liberal website.. Had any of my liberal Facebook friends tried that they would have gotten fact checked by me and the article I found would have been commented to their post. I do the same thing to my conservative friends. Most of my friends have now learned to fact check before they share. Maybe they don't enjoy being embarrassed in front of their other friends.

                      Sure I knew it was fake, I have Google. I thought it was funny. Trump has spent all year taking credit for an economy that Obama built, he should own this also.

                      Trumps followers should learn to use Google. I know, I know, anything that isn't positive about Trump is fake news. So, do any of his supporters have DATA and FACTS to show how Trump being in office is the reason for our economy?



                      Trump is a child with a huge ego who wants to be king of the playground.

                      WASHINGTON, D.C.—In a flurry afternoon tweets, President Donald Trump blamed previous president Barack Obama for the stunning 1175-point drop suffered by the Dow Monday, in a sudden about-face from his normal position of taking credit for the positive stock market action experienced in the first year of his presidency.

                        Sorry to disappoint you but I like to fact check everything that sound even a bit outlandish. Prevents looking like an idiot when someone else does.

                          Why would that disappoint me? If more people did some fact checking, Things everywhere would be different.


                          I like facts and data. If you don't have data to support your claims, then your claims are worthless. That is the problem I have with Trump. Lots of claims, no data.

                              Sorry to ruin your anti-snopes rant, but...............

                              FACT CHECK: Did Trump Tweet in 2015 That the President Should Be Shot Out of a Cannon if the 'Dow Joans' Tanks?

                              Hmmm, maybe not biased after all.
