Fox's Shep Smith fact-checks Trump's Amazon claims: 'None of that was true'

[exGOPer]

all that says is that a commission who overseas a venture has oversight on the venture.

That's literally not what it says, read it again, it says that deals are approved only if it makes economic sense, it doesn't say it's just an oversight - oversight for what? What has economic sense got to do with regulatory oversight?

In short, you will go to any lengths to defend Trump and his lies. And the analyst lie was addressed by Shep, again, try reading and listening instead of your reflexive defensive bullshit.

Apparently there has been some criticism of my earlier post by posters I have on ignore. I am shocked anyone could argue with my point. To repeat, Shep Smith is out of step with Fox viewers and regularly insults or offends them. It has nothing to do with being gay, except for the fact the he knows his gay card is insurance against getting the heave-ho.

It's time for Bezos to spend a couple of billion dollars to put this embarrassment of human excrement in his place.

I didn't realize that you are such a big supporter of Citizens United.

When Bush and his cronies ran all those anonymous ads against Kerry with dark money, there was no Citizens United, all CU did was to make it easier for wealthy to buy politicians, it didn't start it.

What does that deflection have to do with your hypocrisy?

what does economic sense mean in a political situation?
economic sense in an entity which loses money could mean anything.
economic sense could mean really should be charging more but we need short run revenues even if we lose money in the long run on the deal.

nothing there says the the post office is making a profit off amazon.

Certainly Shep Smith can't prove it and neither can you.

Economic sense means that the business venture shows a promise of good return on investment. The fact that there is a commission setup to do this and that commission approved the deals shows the exact opposite of what you are claiming. Stop trying to gaslight with your BS about 'nobody knows', if nobody knows then STFU, don't go around lying all the time about everything which is what Trump does.

What hypocrisy? When did I rail against CU? Are you arguing with voices in your head?
