Last night, I was watching one of the political talk shows and the host had assembled a string of clips from late June to December of Trump people plainly lying that Trumb had never even TALKED about firing Mueller. Now, these were denials of Trump ORDERING the firing of Mueller, but just "talking" about it (which is how the Trump deniers are now trying to frame the discussion - from "ordering" to "oh, he was just talking about it"...).And while watching these clips, I thought back to Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 911 and of how many talking heads - from reporters to pundits to "experts" to the informed ones - were parroting the same exact lines. Now, the sad thing is, to me, the assemblage of talking heads or just people harking the same bullshit is quite telling, however, if you started this conversation with "Michael Moore," fifty percent of those you are talking to are going to immediately disregard the facts in the assemblage of the bullshit yappers.....
