    Already responded.

    And it's pretty ridiculous that you assume that using percentages as a figure of speech is "fabricating numbers"

    Do you have any arguments do rebut the point of that post?

    No?

    I didn't think so... Because when the right changes the subject, that's the sign they ran out of real arguments.

    You literally posted percentages that you made up. I'm not sure how that isn't dishonest.

    ROFL Yes, it is fabricating numbers just like your claim of honesty.

    If a newspaper published "90% of Americans think Hillary is a corrupt bitch" would you think they are dishonest if they just said it's a "figure of speech"?

    Agreed. He's either dishonest or delusional.

    The only way he can be disqualified is if he leaves office before Trump leaves office.

    You can't compare the two. Pence has a longer history of it. Obama got with the times. Pence didn't.

    You mean such a comparison is inconvenient, so you want to ignore it.
    Got it. Thanks.

    Too many things you can't figure out.

    Saying that 99% of this is that is a figure of speech to say "almost all of this is that"

    When a number is not a figure of speech, I as any serious poster does, iinclude the source. Unless it's obvious (like when you talk about the 99% vs the 1% earners)

    Are you telling me that you don't?

    Wow!

    Here are some examples

    https://www.sciencealert.com/missing-99-percent-ocean-microplastic-detection-method

    https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...nger-a-myth/&usg=AOvVaw2r1iG7P69psEpGgxx8Y5Jq

    And I could go on and on....

    It's an idiomatic expression.

    Here is your dishonest quote:

    Stating as your argument at 1% of MSM news is inaccurate and 99% is accurate and that Fox news is 1% accurate (!) and 99% fake isn't an idiomatic expression; it's fraud.

    Showed you 4 examples. Could show you a hundred more... if it were worth the time. It's a common expression. We just need to give you time and you'll learn...

    You remind me of Trump: he never apologizes or admits error even when most people on the planet knows he is wrong.

    I'm not the one posting numbers and then claiming it's an expression of speech.

    No. You're just the one not reading the response.

    Are you denying that you fabricated those numbers as an expression of speech and do not have a factual reference for them? What's to read?

    Pence does have plausible deniability if not complete innocence. The far Left is screeching for his head in some weird hope that the election will be nullified and Hillary will become President, but that's not going to happen.

    I sincerely hope Trump finds a face-saving way to resign (hint: "medical reasons") and that Pence becomes POTUS at least six months prior to next year's elections.

    Don't be so sure Pence isn't guilty of lying to the public if not under oath.
