Say that grass is blue often enough and there are those will believe you if you can make them want to believe you. Maybe he's just better at being a politician than most politicians. What made me think about this is the way Trump is taking credit for making Ford back down from building up production in Mexico. He's claiming that, because of his badgering on the campaign trail, they're cancelling multi-million dollar plans that have been in place for years. Ford is moving production of select truck lines from Mexico to Ohio and Trump said, "I get credit for that. I should get credit for that." The problem? Well, Ford announced the Ohio expansion in 2014 and they claim their plans in Mexico have not changed. Trump is repeatedly tweeting and talking about in public something which appears to have no basis in reality. Does it even matter, though? A lot of people are going to hear him say it and accept his account as truth. Is Donald Trump, in effect, attempting to bluff his way into becoming President of the United States? Or does he just lack the sense to check the facts before he opens his mouth? |

Trump certainly knows advertising well, isn't it?
For matter of Sanders, it seems that everyone has their own data. Inevitable, since it is impossible to get 'Every' data in the world. His budget isn't unrealistic if we cut back on military and build less tanks and aircraft carriers. I don't think we even need to raise the taxes on rich if we cut on military enough. (Seriously though, why is US spending so much money on weapons of all levels?)
My limited knowledge and data indicates plan that Sanders support will ultimately yield best result, I disagree with him on some issue, but his stance match better to mine than others.
History will tell us which data was correct.
