from someone who posts nothing but alt right memes and posts, and I tried googling a ton of variations of the quote and nothing. that would mean it does not exist. this is the news the Trumpists are getting

Ugh I see shit like this on my FB feed all the time. DRIVES ME NUTS. People get a lot of their news from memes now and do NO fact checking.
You want to really wallow in the sewers? I assume your friend re-posted that from some Alt-Right FB page. Go to the source and read the comments on their postings... it makes me weep and furious at the same time.

that's my biggest quandary, am I more angry or more disappointed in society. Mostly it's a 50/50 split, but it varies depending on the stupidity of the meme and the responses. I called out a meme on an evil, tree-hugging liberal, pinko, hippie page (which I am proud member of), as to it's credibility, and I was very pleased to not only see that several hundred also agreed that memes could use some citations, but then the citations were given.
But yea, using memes as your news source, well... that's just very telling

I am so glad I quit FB earlier this year... the rampant memes and motivational "i think im better than you" jargon was almost unbearable. I can't even imagine how much political nonsense is on there now...

Why go to the source? Anything that tells you something you don't want to hear is part of the conspiracy, be it 'liberal media', 'corporate shill operations', or whatever conspiracy de jour.

I go to the source for the pure comedy of it all. It's like a car crash too me. Sadly, a car crash that has voting rights. :(

I'm still having trouble with it. I assume the key is All Is On

Back to this topic, I hope Obama does some kind of full blanket pardon for anything. I can't imagine Obama wanting the next President to face perpetual road blocks like he has.

That'd do more harm than good. The conspiracy freaks would go wild.

Just saw another about HIllary's 'property' being raided by NYPD. Of course Snopes rates it false. As far as I know Hillary doesn't even have property in NYC, just her daughter Chelsea. The NYPD wouldn't be involved in raiding a house in Chappaqua NY where Bill & Hillary have their 'compund'. And like this wouldn't be all over the mainstream media anyways, not just some alt right website. It's sad.

Garbage articles laundered through buzzfeed with no self awareness. Content farms have always existed, no one else is touching this story because its just another dirty trick as the Clinton's become ever more desperate.

List the top 100...

The left are the true masters of the phony story

It's been interesting to watch hollywood celeb feeds devolve into tmz grade smears in the last days, its all they have left.

Jeez, who woke the parrot up?

The Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda must be getting worried for some reason.
