Cool

I asked for proof of the claim that President Trump is, in fact, a traitor and was offered instead articles from the comic pages of two publications.

Lets start with the first one, the "Ohio Capital Journal". The article, a "commentary" (which is just another way of saying "opinion") was written by David DeWitt. It offers no actual proof, only spin and innuendos. While it says President Trump is a traitor, there is no factual proof offered, just his own assertions. It's a garbage hit piece, designed to incite idiots that actually believe his writings. It is simply hearsay journalism. It provides no actual proof of any wrongdoings by President Trump that would be usable in a court of law, and must therefore be discarded as "proof".

The second piece, from the Baltimore Sun newspaper (at least they got their initials right, it's a B.S. Newspaper) was "written" by Bruce Knaoff, is a declared "Opinion" piece printed in 2018 and talks about how the writer believes that President Trump committed treason by talking to President Putin and commenting on his remarks. It (again) offers no real proof, just his own personal assertions and opinions (which is why it appeared in the "opinion" section of the newspaper). Like the first piece, it is opinion journalism, nothing more than hearsay spin without any real proof to back up his claims. Additionally, like the first link, it must be regarded as nothing more than a hit piece, bereft of any truth or validity.

I am not interested in "opinion" pieces. We all have them (opinions) but they are NOT proof. If someone makes a claim, they must be prepared to back up their claim with real evidence. Evidence that will stand up in court. Not hearsay opinions.

For instance, if I say that gasoline has risen over a dollar since Biden took over as President I can back that claim up with pictures of pump prices and news articles. Actual items that support my claim. Anyone making a claim must be able to do the same or declare that it is simply an opinion with no basis in actual fact. Anything else is simply irrelevant.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
