Mr. Trump's America is fully compatible with checks and balances.

Indeed, he still knows how to rig elections with the help of his domestic and foreign friends, say, Putin. Just wait and see.

The only people who are trying to rig an election are the people who are trying to use hacked "internet signatures" from Russian IP addresses to get their gay rights initiative on Michigan's November ballot.

I just found this online " mlive.com is organized by the Michigan Conservative Coalition and supported by the Michigan Freedom Fund and other conservative groups".

I'd say we have good reason to call into question the trustworthiness of its news.

It's just a Michigan news portal. I don't want to waste my time on small-bore issues like you. You could read the New York Post, which has several conservative columnists spouting claptrap as well.

@oralloy,
Philip Roth would deplore Trump's race-baiting if he were still alive. He would have written a novel entitled Trump's Rabbit Hole. It's so sad that we don't have more acerbic scribes who still have the gumption to
lament the fact that Trump's government seems to have become surfeited with Trump and his nescient patsies' personal opinions, say, he may be tempted to palaver with his family's cooks about America's foreign policy. Wait, I conjecture Trump even seeks counsel from his granddaughter about how to resuscitate America's economy. And the little girl might say something like this, " grandpa, all you have to do is put lipstick on a pig.

So the next day you find the Trump appearing on Fox News, claiming that America's economy is still much better than the year in which America got clobbered by the the Great Depression.

" That's tour de force, cries Sean Hannity, his eyes moist with tears.
" Yeah. That's amazing, " Maria Bartiromo chimes in, her eyes crinkled up . " We are proud of you, Peppa Trump. " other anchors of Fox News start singing in union. "Oink, oink, oink."

It's really silly the way progressives always falsely accuse everyone of racism.

That's pretty goofy. What you found is an article that one of their reporters wrote about a protest that was "organized by the Michigan Conservative Coalition and supported by the Michigan Freedom Fund and other conservative groups".

If you choose to distrust reputable newspapers, that's your foolishness.

It doesn't make it OK for Russian hackers to impose gay rights legislation on Michigan with fake "internet signatures".

What is it about reputable news sources that you dislike so much?

What exactly is a small bore issue? Some kind of childish insult because you can't think of anything intelligent to say?

I'm not surprised that you like the Post given your dislike for reputable news.

I don't even read the NY Post like your conservative friends. Don't you know that the owner of the NY Post is Murdoch?

You're the one who disparaged reputable news sources and recommended that I read the New York Post.

Mlive.com is not a marquee website in America. You are still at a loss. Please go find some books about celebrated media outlets in America.

Go ahead and read the New York Post if you like that sort of thing.

I'm going to stick to reputable news sources.

Only conservatives like you would read the NY Post, savvy? I feel like being a cloying mom who works hard to show a boy how to be a learned man. Anyway, you have fun here.

You are the person here who disparages reputable news sources. You shouldn't tar conservatives with your own preference for low quality news.

Then those conservatives know how bad Cuomo's handling of the crisis was, and how many lives it cost. I think the NYPost is the only paper that has really covered it.

I don't remember Cuomo telling the press that Covid-19 is a hoax like your idol Trump. Moreover, most folk living in NY only read the New York Times or the New Yorker; you are demeaning yourself when you tell someone that you are desirous of tosh published by the NY Post.

It's just like asking Joyce Carol Oates does she read National Enquirer.

First Trump never said that. Second, Trump did not send Covid 19 infected people to nursing homes, Cuomo did. That killed a lot of people. That is directly on Cuomo.

I'm not putting all the conservative writers down. Sometimes I also check out Peggy Noonan's latest column; she writes for the Wall Street Journal.

It bums me that that she doesn't have the guts to take a swipe at Trump's self-defeating move to pin blame on others as the president who is supposed to protect every American citizen.

To be fair, Peggy Noonan is still a thoughtful and compassionate columnist just like Anna Quindlen.

He SAID THATTTTTTTTTT. You just can't bring yourself to admit that's what he said. You know what Trump did? More people would have been saved if Trump hadn't been a dilatory president. He reportedly swithered as to weather he should send more aid to states like New York, according to the Economist. More lives could have been saved. Yet Trump chose to disown Cuomo because Cuomo is not a Republican loyalist like you.
