Now his, "go to" AI, just got stumped. Don't expect an answer, but I think we need to press this question, indefinitely.    

  I guess MSNBC and CNN proved how "balanced" they were by covering the russian hoax lie non stop.    Got to be a bot, no person can claim what he does.

I swear, he's a class study in "liberal Sheepdom". How can anyone look at leftist news, and still claim they're somehow balanced?
His excuse that Right media is solely opinion based is freakin hilarious, when placed against the lying leftist media.

In the 60s media simply omitted truths, but now, they outright lie with impunity. yet we're biased?

Even Midcan should be able to see the trend here.

Well there you have it, it's All Trump's Fault...        
Fuckin amazing, and libs still can't seem to make the connection that the left is fuckin EVIL!

We are getting off topic here. This was about books and reading. All topics have been covered, but you'll need to read and stop relying on crickets. After this post I will stick to reading, create a thread if you feel some issue hasn't been answered.

Pres Biden inherited the border issues, Trump never got Mexico to pay for the wall nor did he have a reliable solution. He had four years and accomplished nada - the issue is complex as dictators in South America are creating unlivable countries. It is the same as our immigrant grandparents who came from Europe etc to find a better life. If the Republican alt-right destroys America's republic will Canada be next. lol

Hunter Biden is a private citizen if he did wrong that is on him but nothing specific so far except constant mentions from you guys. I don't recall mention of Trump and associates regarding Ukraine being mentioned, nor do I hear of Russia and Saudi support for Trump and family. Next you'll mention Soros, another favorite bogeyman of the alt-right. Soros Has accomplished lots. Seems you guys only see in one direction. Glasses maybe?

Below are reliable sources and links concerning the topics mentioned, read them and learn. Or do as Trump does so well, hide behind excuses, walls, and lawyers.

PS  I give Trump credit he learned well from his dad in terms of criminal behavior, always remain in the background. Others in his administration took the fall and he pardoned several. He'd love to be president again as he'd do the same.

Sorry, what you are calling reliable sources are nothing more than a platform to get the liberal view out there. NONE of them reported on the Hunter laptop story before the election or since, and that was about as easy to get the facts on as anything out there. ALL of them reported the Russian hoax nightly for YEARS, even after it soon became apparent it was all fake. Biden threatened Ukraine with cutting off $ if they did not call off the investigation into his son, they did not report that, all of them did report the fake story that Trump was trying to influence them when we all heard the phone call telling otherwise. Sorry, your sources are as fake as the stories they push.

This is why I suspect bot/human. The AI reads what he's posting, reads our replies and suggests leftist  authors the world ignores.

Again, nobody knows who you are talking too or to what you are replying.
Is the quote function beyond your thinking capacity or something? Why are you so incompetent that you cant figure it out? If you cant figure out a simple quote function then that speaks poorly of your opinion on other things like politics....
