Brooke Baldwin of CNN just said trump got a "mixed" reaction at game 5...

of the World Series. Disgusting. We here know he got booed loudly and "lock him up" was also chanted loudly at him.

Wjat is up with her? Does she write that crap, that lie? I don't watch her much and I'm not familiar with her political leanings but to hear her say that, to minimize the harsh reaction trump got, makes you wonder if she's a trumperl

OK, why is that?

I heard a huge crowd involved in both "Boooo's" and "Lock Him Up!"

Some media person claims otherwise.

What should I do - perhaps ask for a second opinion?

I heard what I heard.

You hear anything different?

Go for it - but I think that anybody denying what I've seen and heard on tape is dealing with "alternative facts."

mixed reaction is blatantly false and gives someone who didn't see the reporting/videos of the booing and chanting would think he got an almost ho-hum/so what reaction.

Seems pretty simple to me - it WAS a "mixed" reaction:

Many "Boooooo's"

Lot's of "Lock her up!"

That someone claims otherwise is hilarious and damned straight I'm gonna' have some fun with it.

"Please. Not something to joke about."

Quite the opposite - anybody that can't see what is available on tape has to be blind or deaf - and for it to be a media reporter - worthy of derision or scorn - or being laughed at.

Me, I chose to laugh about it.

Like I said, anybody seeing anything else is hung up in "alternative facts" - or simply in total denial.

But for you to claim "not something to joke about?"

That's your idea - but not mine.

These are tough times - if we can't laugh we can go crazy.

But we should have a common goal - GET OUT THE VOTE and get them all gone - and we can all laugh as they slither out the door (if you want to laugh, that is..............)

Well, you handle it your way and I'll do my own thing.

would get a false impression of what happened from her "mixed reaction report as it seemed to downplay what really happened.

Unless it was 100% boos, it was mixed. She not trying to spread a lie about there not being any booing.

"Lock him up!" with "Lock her up!" His henchmen photoshopped thousands of people into the inauguration pics, fudging the World Series audio won't be a problem. Of course, he'll need to bring back Sean Spicer to present the "evidence" during the WH briefing.

Eva's face on the video. That doesn't say "mixed", and their reaction is the best witnesses to what they heard. They were smiling and cocky until they realized what was happening, grimaced, and afterward awkwardly tried to make light of it.

Getting plenty tired of lazy reporters.

it was mixed -- there were people cheering. And the lock him up chants were localized within the stadium, not widespread. In particualr, i never heard them where I was sitting (Club Level, down the third base line).

There are more important things to worry about than this, I think.

between 4 and 5 and their female anchor said that some Nationals didn't show up but we had no idea why. This after one of the no shows made it abundantly clear why.
