I have explained dozens of times over the past year and a half why people like you are totally wrong. It is no longer worth the time and effort to explain things to people who refuse to accept reality.

Therefore, if you're interested in the truth, you can look up my posts on the subject from the past year and a half. If you would rather believe things that make no sense (Why would Trump manipulate numbers to levels that make him look awful?), be my guest.

In the mean time, I will continue to put people like you on my ignore list as I have for the past several months.
