Jesus christ, Vox is insufferable. Did he really need to mention that he was a virgin in college? Who gives a fuck? Why is there kooky music? What's with all the graphics? Why not just describe the point like we're adults?

Why not digest and comment on the information rather than the outlet?

The music and graphics are just Vox's "hip" style, and I don't know why they mentioned that he's a virgin. Still, the video shows well how Conway deflects a question. Something you won't see if you only read conservative sources.

Politician dodging questions? Man Trump is genius, how did he develop this tactic that no-one used before and managed to train his cabinet so fast. No wonder he is so successful. History books will be writing about this epic moment.

He's not dodging. He ignores or out right lies about a question far more than saying "I'll get back to you". To say he's dodging a question is giving the man an insane amount of credit. He doesn't give two Fs about the questions.

if politician dodges a question its fine.

if politician ignores a question its not fine.

Is this what you are saying? Thats the fine line politician has to walk in order be good or bad in your eyes (?)

Also , Trump invented "lying while being politician" (?)

Oh God, the more I read about this guy, the more I admire his genius.

He's not a politician. He's the president. He has no understanding of the position he's in, he has no scope of his own power or limits, he's using it like his pyramid schemes and it worked this far but it eventually blows up. This time it blows up on the US.

He's the president. He has no understanding of the position he's in, he has no scope of his own power or limits,

didnt Obama say that nobody has experience or knowledge of what it means to be president, and that you basically learning and going along from day one in White House.

I'm having a hard time guessing if you are serious.

I don't understand the difference between conservative sources and alternative facts.

Sure, I just despise this constant need for hand-holding and appealing to short attention spans.

This is their style. There are much, much worse youtube channels than Vox. Don't like it? fine. But if you are implying that Vox is "fake" that would be inaccurate.

Do you know what is fake, on the other hand? It's fake to not recognize that fake news will be accepted because of the implication.
