    To state the Mind-Bogglingly Obvious:

    How was the MSM able to find roughly 10% "Positive" coverage of Trump?

    Based on Trump's output, his MSM coverage should be 99+% negative.

    Why is the MSM being so nice to Trump?

    10% "positive" is about 10x more than Trump deserves.

    LOL

    So it's your way, or the highway.

    Perhaps you could learn to make a better argument, rather than devolve to insults when you haven't been persuasive.

    That's interesting, do you consider being compared to flat earthers an insult? What's wrong with flat earthers?

    Do I consider it an insult? I don't care. But you thought it was.

    Learn to debate on a higher plane.

    So, here is how that discussion would go:

    You: Of course the world is not flat, everyone knows that.

    Flat earther: If you believe the msm. Did you ever notice that 99% of the msm coverage of flat earth theory is negative. You are brainwashed by the deep state.

    Y: Right… because it’s wrong, you wouldn’t expect the coverage of a bad idea to be positive.

    FE: That’s just your opinion, and it isn’t fair because flat earth theory doesn’t get the same amount of positive coverage as round earth theory. There are several examples of NASA and the msm lying.

    Y: Right, it’s my opinion because the overwhelming majority of people who know what they are talking about as well as all of the evidence say it is the case, it’s not the same as just picking a random opinion

    FE: Heh, so it’s your way or the highway huh? Why don’t you try a convincing argument?

    At this point, you realize, that this flat earther is indivisibly tied to an idea emotionally. They didn’t get to that idea using logic, or reason, or evidence, and no matter how overwhelming the evidence, they will never change their mind because reality isn’t important to them, the pre-drawn conclusion is the only thing that matters. There is no possible argument, no matter how iron-clad, that they will ever consider ‘convincing.’
