Holy crap! Snopes debunks Donald Trump's critics, and their BS.

Damn, an American Internet facing organisation with an agenda.

Who would've guessed?

Well damn, I guess a broken clock is right twice a day.

A broken day is right twice o'clock.

This may be the biggest, and most effective, attack on Trump yet. By default, one must assume that everything Snopes says is wrong.

What a turn around, I had given up hope for snopes!

I posted this on a FB political page and immediately they attacked me personally and went off about Trump. When I asked them how many from their side they correct with fact checking all I got was I called someone out about a meme with Trump and diaherra. Priceless how they tried to flip the whole discussion

lol I just had to share that for all my friends that run to them for "proof" of things! My fb page will either blow up or be crickets. Will be interesting to see which way it goes...thanks for sharing!

I had to come back and edit. First of all so far crickets, not surprising. What is surprising is this was probably one of the first honest pieces of journalism I've read in awhile and from Snopes no less whom I usually take with a grain of salt. Oh the irony here today....

The only irony is that you don't usually trust Snopes but suddenly do now that they posted something you want to believe, and that article just happens to speak of confirmation bias.
Your lack of self-awareness is also pretty amusing, though.

Cole's Notes Version

"Fake News" cuts both ways, and both sides are guilty.

But in 2017 if you don't like the news/report you can just label it as "fake News" and move on.
This isn't healthy for anybody, especially if your going for the truth and honesty, if half the population regards the actual truth as fake news, this is bad for everybody.

Some only once if they are in military time.

The real irony is you are not seeing all of them say OMG Snopes said something for the first time they agree with as truthful, do you?

One out of a million I jokingly think but of course it is lower.... I am sure that Snopes is right more than once.
