"Donald Trump has been involved in 480 lawsuits" sounds like an attack ad to me

he'd best hope none of those are "frivolous", considering how much conservatives rage over that poo poo

Why don't you make a non-fallacious argument instead?

I'm just saying dude, if I had to chose between these two wildly different polls I'd favor the former by a mile, since the huffington post has made it abundantly clear that their editorial policy is to influence people against trump by any means possible

Is that so unreasonable? Or should I shrug and say, "well, I guess both could be equally true, there's no way of knowing!"

I'm not a Trump supporter. I don't want him to win. But we're in for months and months of propaganda by media outlets who are going to manipulate and misrepresent information. Making a conscious choice to disregard one when it has proven to be a biased tabloid seems like an okay decision. If I'm still off base because I'm "arguing" incorrectly, let me know.

No, seriously, the actual number is 3,500:

quote:

An exclusive USA TODAY analysis of legal filings across the United States finds that the presumptive Republican presidential nominee and his businesses have been involved in at least 3,500 legal actions in federal and state courts during the past three decades. They range from skirmishes with casino patrons to million-dollar real estate suits to personal defamation lawsuits.

The sheer volume of lawsuits is unprecedented for a presidential nominee. No candidate of a major party has had anything approaching the number of Trump’s courtroom entanglements.

Unskewing has become a meme so just a friendly reminder that actual unskewing done in 2012 was based on the assumption that democrats were being oversampled in polls. You may want to think twice before declaring that a poll is bad because a party is under or oversampled.

It's good because most peoples' interaction with CNN is as a mute slide show while they are in an airport or lobby or somewhere, so fact checking Trump via chyron has become necessary.

I wonder if the IRS can, you know...put the audit "on hold" somehow. I'm guessing that's not how federal audits work, but you hey, maybe something can be arranged. Especially if the President asks that it be done.:twisted:

Rick Snyder refuses to endorse Trump:

quote:

Gov. Rick Snyder has sidelined himself in the race for president, choosing not to make an endorsement of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

The Republican governor also did not endorse in the March 8 primary, saying he was consumed with addressing Flint’s lead-contaminated water crisis.

“I’ve stayed out of the whole thing, and I’m going to continue to,” Snyder said Wednesday in an interview with The Detroit News Editorial Board at the Mackinac Policy Conference. “I’ve got important things I want to work on in Michigan.”

Not terribly surprising that the most vulnerable Republican officials are refusing to endorse Trump, but still.

The RNC's Director of Hispanic Media Relations recently quit because of Trump.

She has been replaced by...someone who also doesn't particularly care for Trump:

quote:

Aguirre Ferré frequently tweeted criticisms of Trump, including as recently as last month. She suggested that Trump doesn’t represent the “values of the Republican Party,” tweeted that Hispanic Republicans are “caught in 2016 meat grinder” because of Trump, and wondered if Trump surrogates Gov. Chris Christie and Sen. Jeff Sessions “now regret supporting Trump or do the means justify the end?” She also tweeted a link to PolitiFact awarding Trump the 2015 Lie of the Year and wrote after Trump attacked Carly Fiorina’s appearance that the country and women “deserve better” than Trump. She has since deleted those tweets.

She has not yet deleted a tweet criticizing Trump for attacking Jeb Bush's wife, calling Trump’s remarks “beyond the pale”; and a tweet of an article reporting that two men allegedly justified an anti-Hispanic attack by citing Trump (she commented, “Terrible!”).

The Washington Post reported that Aguirre Ferré “frequently expressed doubts about Trump in public during appearances on Spanish-language television programs and on Twitter,” and noted she “deleted at least one tweet critical of Trump,” which “linked to a poll suggesting Miami-area Cuban Americans would leave the GOP if the businessman won the nomination.”
