Dh says none of the rumors people spread about Trump have been proven (since he became President). I say DH is wrong.
I really, really don't want to look it up. I'm afraid my head may explode from all the bull crap I'd have to wade through.
Surely, there's a handy dandy website??? And one of the all-knowing Peas has it bookmarked???!? Please!?!

What rumors? He lies all the time, and there are multiple news sites that keep track of his lies and provide accurate information.
Personal rumors? Like the pee tape? Who knows if that exists? Who cares? He shows us on a regular basis the terrible, unintelligent, uncurious, cruel, selfish, petty person he is. No rumors there - it’s how he presents himself.

The question is, what kind of rumors?
Like he has lied at least 12,000 times? His campaign owes El Paso well over half a million dollars for his rally there months ago.
The economy and employment numbers were going up during Obama's term.
He calls powerful women who excel 'nasty' ...
Don't start me on the Epstein mess

go to snopes and type in Trump in the search box Why the heck didn't I think of that??? Thanks! I don't know what is going through DH's head. I still haven't told him I switched to the Democrat party three months ago because I don't want to listen to "I can't stand Trump either, he's a horrible person, but....." comments.

Snopes, Politifact, a google search, almost any news station other than Fox. Snark intended towards your husband’s rather uninformed beliefs, not you, I had one too so I get it. Good luck and welcome!

Good luck and welcome! FOX has been and is working on an after trump programing.......... There have been some very harsh words within their upper management!

Yup, everybody knows Snopes is just a librul shill (along with any other fact checking site that dares to challenge what the almighty gods at Fox News tell them). FOX has been and is working on an after trump programing.......... There have been some very harsh words within their upper management! I'm not sure what this means... Programming to ensure their viewers keep frothing at the mouth? Harsh words about what? Criticizing this administration? Sucking up to this administration? ETA: I see now - just ran across THIS (for anyone else who was interested).

I am from New York. Everything that is told about trump through the 80’s is true. But unfortunately never proven in a court of law because he’s always had a ‘fixer’ to make it all ‘go away’ What ever the rumor your DH is arguing about ask him why a man doing all legal things needs a ‘fixer’? Which is what Cohen called himself. You only need a ‘fixer’ to make illegal things go away.

The deficit is back up over $1TRILLION.
Trump has given away (not loaned) farmers (including giant farm corporations) $28BILLION because of his asinine trade policies.
That's $28BILLION while people struggle to find beds to treat the mentally ill.
How's that?!

Who needs to verify rumors? His own words, in speeches, meetings, and tweets, are damning enough. His open actions are damning enough.

Fox News is getting ready to bail on Trump. If they do, there might be some truthful news in your DH’s future.

Does anyone else find this a sad statement on what our government has become:
"Paul is embarrassed about Trump and now he has the power to do something about it,"
Really, he has more power to do something about Trump now that he is on the board of a tv station than he had when he was the Speaker of the House??
Also, I wonder what Trump and his die-hard followers will do if Fox turns on him? I mean, since Trump and his followers (at least the ones I know) think that Fox is the only station that reports REAL news rather than fake news. Should be interesting to see how they spin that one.

I’m not sure how I feel about that 1 - it’s not like Trump himself has any loyalty - he will throw anyone under the bus in a heartbeat- so to see him ‘betrayed’ by his ‘religion’ called Fox News might be satisfying 2 - I’m not a fan of distorting things to fit your narrative & making shit up and pretending it’s ok because it’s ‘your opinion’, so I’m not going to be a fan of Fox personalities making shit up even about Trump. BUT would Fox even have to? I mean There’s plenty of Fodder Trump himself spews that one wouldn’t need to make it up. 3 - I would love to see that internal email directing all the minions how their opinions have now changed going forward. Lmao

He’s deserved real jail time since mud 1980’s but you know he threw money around and bullied people til it all went away. Or st least went away to the point where he could just throw money at it. He screwed REAL people over both financially & literally and should be in jail not the White House. He is a despicable human being. ( and I do not mean in the cute Pixar way either )

Paul Ryan is a coward who is trying to make himself and his party look palatable when Trump is finally gone. make no mistake, his policy record as a congressperson was just as awful as anything Donald Trump has done as president, minus the criminal activities (as far as we know...). I would be SHOCKED if we don't see his name on a presidential ballot in the coming decade.

I think that unless you can spend the couple minutes it would take to debunk some of the lies, exaggerations or embellishments Trump has done over the last two years, you need to leave your DH alone.
Seriously. If it's that big of an issue to you, that you prove your DH wrong, stupid, ill informed or foolish (you choose your motivation) put in the work. Or hush.
Just be ready for him to shoot back with plenty of lies and mistruths, embellishments and denials from your "side."

That's $28BILLION while people struggle to find beds to treat the mentally ill. How's that?! There was a report on our local news last night about local lumber mill(s) closing within a month due to the trade issues. 30% of their lumber goes to China. Our state's apple crop is 20% of our agricultural exports. China is our largest importer of apples. I can only imagine what the apple farmers are thinking as their crops come in. I cannot imagine that this is going to last much longer, and if it does it will eventually bankrupt our exporters.

I would be SHOCKED if we don't see his name on a presidential ballot in the coming decade. Totally agree. I can't stand this guy. I think he's trying to lie low for now and distance himself a bit, wait for all of this to blow over, and then he'll rise again, ready to save us all. Coward is an excellent descriptive term for Paul Ryan.
