The ENTIRE COUNTRY is not revolting against Trump. In fact, I am assuming this shooting only hardens his support among some Trumpists, and maybe attracts a few more psychopathic voters?

And yes, I know I don't have to open the post. I won't, nor other overly dramatic crap videos. But I am always concerned that there are actually folks who buy into this hyperbolic nonsense. There lies both disappointment and confusion.

Anytime you see such a title, that is the purpose.

And, it counts when you click, not when you decided to read/view the page. Just as a monitor advertises a '500 hour life', they are talking about the time it is on, not the time it is used.

I agree with you completely. But, this is 'information' in the modern world. There may be decent bits of real info in this fluff piece. Which, I am used to now. Reading the news these days is more like being a strainer than it is being a bucket.
