        It may be true, but any article from the nytimes on Trump is marketing propaganda and must be read as such.

        so regardless of facts and truth, it should be read as propaganda? Name one news outlet can be trusted based on your logic.

        so you have no personal responsibility to read articles and verify or take the objective pieces and ignore the subjective?

        Science has been the bedrock of technology, innovation, and GDP. Odd that the R's are so intent on cutting. Myopic.
