I finally realized that All journos are full of shit and the phrase "sources close to the investigation" or "our scources are telling us" is one big lie. From the ny times to the washington post to hard hitting journos with 300k followers on twitter.
They dont have any scources. They are basically con artists like psychics.
Trump is not being indicted this week.
Let me rephrase that.
Trump is never being indicted.

I don't believe shit Trump says, but a lot of people on the media and here do, apparently.

(22,055 posts)The rest was pure speculation. If that upsets you, dont watch TV, and stay off twitter.
I have seen no reports using sources close to the investigation that claimed indictments were happening this week.
The only person who lied to you was Trump.

(57,394 posts)when people quote crap from Trump himself or some random guy on Twitter, obviously it's not reliable. You can't put this one on "all journos." It was rumor mongering, nothing more. It wasn't journalism or "journos."

(129,111 posts)Why are at least three grand juries still in session? Why don't they just pack it in and go home now that you have decreed that it will never happen? Nobody but Trump said it would happen this week; when did he become a credible source?

(1,983 posts)None of the major news sources I read ever said that Trump was going to be indicted. It was only Trump himself. There were articles about NYC bracing for a possible indictment, articles about how the process might work, etc. But nothing saying that it was going to happen.
So I didn't really believe it, because if Trump says something, it's more likely to be false than true.

(45,675 posts)No one else. Did the media fall for it? They did.
Seems like a lot of people on social media fell for it too, perhaps to gain this reaction from you and some others.
Don't let them gaslight you.

(2,508 posts)Trump or the media? If it was Trump, why did anyone believe him?

(24,279 posts)If telling the truth would help his cause while lying would hurt him, he would still lie.
He can't help it, it's what he does.

(9,212 posts)Long ago all they care about is money from ratings etc. whether he will ever be indicted I have no clue but I guess one day we will find out.

The first person fails because their logic is their own; the second fails because logic is all they own.
