I assume that was aimed at me.
Let me give you an argument from the opposite side.
The New York Times, never supported a Republican candidate in my lifetime, publishes an article from an "unknown source" claiming Trump paid no tax in whatever years it said. This the Left take as the truth and Trump shouts "fake news"
Project Veritas with an opposite agenda investigates voter manipulation, the Left shout "fake news"
Do I think Trump has been dodgy with his taxes based on the NYT piece... probably, do I think there's been voter fraud in Minneapolis based on that video.... probably.
I'm far from trying to paint one side as clean and the other as dirty.... both sides are as bad as each other.
The NYT has never supported a Republican candidate, FOX has never supported a Democrat president. but guess what there are more Republican's supporting a Democrat this year than ever before, wonder why?
Veritas "investigated" voter manipulation - but has already been proven to be a Koch brothers hack job - you know like the abortions video that the right huffed and puffed about, but was quickly ripped apart
If you think Trump is "probably" dodgy, then you must have started from a place of love, The guy's a crook.
The point you are trying to make is the same point people use to disenfranchise voters. "oh, they're all as bad as each other, so why bother voting" or the usual juxtapositions the right love to use "Trump is smart to avoid taxes and lefties probably do it too"
the truth is simple, all parties played politics within the system, this is the norm. However, Trump, his cult and the GOP have taken politics to depths never imagined. The checks and balances system no longer works because the GOP and (for the last 4 years) Trump have deliberately broken the system.
I could go on and give you lots of examples, but think I'll give you a chance to find some more youtube vids
