    Firstly, it's more likely that the dislikes disappeared because the accounts got flagged as bots. Secondly, what sort of weird sites are you linking to?

    i do often wonder how people find those sites.

    Indeed. Justthenews is a right-wing site with a poor factual score

    https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/just-the-news/

    Nevermind it was founded by John Solomon, who generates conspiratorial horesh!t for Trump's benefit. Solomon among many other things has previously coordinated with the Trump camp via Lev Parnas (indicted) and Rudy Giuliani (under investigation). He is the editor in chief. It's a joke. It's also only been around since February. It is all but literally a Trump campaign/PAC propaganda outfit with no standing credibility as a paper of record etc.

    I Googled "democrats disappearing likes" & it was the first site returned. My claim was simply that there was speculation. I never claimed it was certain.

    Indeed it is not a great site. Please remember that the Lincoln project is very popular in these parts. Not exactly a great resource of unbiased information.

    And Trump all ways gets his man.
    Look what Trump done to Harvey weinstein and Jeffrey epstejn.

    What tried to cover his tracks.

    you posted it because it suited your point of view. Interesting to know that the truth of the matter is not important to you.

    This nonsense again. He will be at the debate. And he's a good debater if you did any modicum of research. Took down Sanders pretty easily this year. How did his plan to put Hilary in jail turn out. Or the Obama birther nonsense. Roll on the debates.

    Indeed. But how will uncle Joe explain Hunters' half billion dollar deal with the ccp.

    The Lincoln Project is not pimping itself as an online newspaper. There is no comparing the two.

    the only thing posted from the Lincoln Project are their ads and pretty good they are too. I dont remember any trump supporters doubting their veracity.

    Don't believe anyone has provided The Lincoln Project as an actual news source....

    Speaking of JustTheNews: keep this outlet in check. It was just founded in February, by John Solomon, who generated the Biden-Ukraine conspiracy theory in collusion with Lev Parnas and Rudy Giuliani. I would regard it as a PAC at best, and subversive propaganda at worst.

    My point of view was that some people speculated that dislikes were disappearing. Weather the people speculating were on the left or right is irrelevant. The fact is people did speculate.

    This thing you're doing is called gaslighting.

    The credibility of the source and the claim they're pushing is a pretty legitimate concern. By your logic, linking to Infowars is perfectly fine as they're just speculating......

    and the fact that the people doing that speculation are massively biased isn't relevant? you dont think changes it from genuine speculation to just outright lies trying to tar a candidate?

    i dont watch CNN. why would I? I do however listen to what he says and that is enough to form an opinion that he is a terrible person who is totally unfit to be president.

    It's a fact that YouTube altered the like dislike ratio.
    I saw it happen and people have screencaps of it

    Main stream media didn't influence your opinion
    Really? ?

    It's more likely that youtube deactivated a load of spam accounts from suspicion locations. Resulting in the change in numbers.

    Don't watch CNN or Fox etc and don't have to put myself through that to know he's a prick.

    Funny how they never make mistakes in Trump's favour
    Coincidence that they alwaysare mistakes against him
    Cmon man

    Just to be perfectly clear and as already stated, I have not claimed the democrats removed dislikes. I simply stated that some people speculated that they did.

    I don't read CNN just like I don't read Fox. Thankfully I have all my faculties and form my opinion of Trump based on what he says, his actions and my ability to research his many failings. But he has many supporters who support him because they don't like the politics of the left, to the extent that they give a pass to a hate mongerer who divides people instead of bringing them together and is more than likely a rapist. But hey each to their own.
