It's entirely possible that the DNC hacks changed the result of the election. The most one can say is that the mechanics of voting and vote tabulation themselves were not hacked and disrupted by our Slavic Friends - as far as we know.
Surely you aren't defending the Russians and their American admirers by claiming 'we all know this stuff never works, but we can't stop ourselves from doing it'?
They do not claim to be the source of irrefutable truth. All they do is compare statement made by various parties to those things, damn now what do they call them? Oh yea FACTS. You may have heard of them although from your posts I have my doubts. Trump certainly has not heard of them or completely disregards them.
From the Politifact website:
Accuracy is the degree of adherence to or deviation from a standard. Those who assess accuracy don't establish the standard, they just make the comparison. You also use the word 'irrefutable', as if standards/truth was immutable. In fact they change quite often in the real world — many New Years see the standard year adjusted — when new more accurate measurements refute old standards and those entrusted with maintaining them announce the changed and improved versions as widely as they can.
I suppose that you have no need of politifact, since you believe every word of Trump and all republicans.
See the statement drawn from Politifact's website above. If Politifact's claim is only that that are determining "their truth", or "the best truth they know how to find", what would be the point of their assessments? Clearly, all who draw from them are interpreting Politifact's claim the same way I am, because they trot them out for "proof" of whether something is a lie or not, not for a "discussion" of contrary evidence.
Look at the title of this thread.
No they purport the rule upon what is factual. Not sure why you have difficulty with that concept other than the FACT that Trump is completely divorced from FACTS.
Too funny, "rating the accuracy of claims",... does anybody actually realise how ridiculous that is.
Hahahaha. You can't even quote yourself with accuracy.
This is one time I agree. It is so ridiculous to think that there is ever any accuracy in any of Trumps claims. I hear that there is still a traffic jam from people trying to leave from his record sized inauguration.
This one time I agree,...it is so ridiculous to think there is ever any accuracy in any politicians claims.
