   No, he did not, stupid.   
      
   He spread a claim. That's not a lie.   
      
   "One of the most prominent backers of that claim..."   
      
   "Backing" a claim, in and of itself, is not a "lie", per se.   
      
   "I was paid in the past, Sean, for my OPINIONS..."   
      
   Opinions, you stupid fuck, are not lies, unless you KNOW the information   
   you're divulging is, in fact, not true.   
      
   Did he KNOW either way?   
      
   How do YOU know, either way?   
      
   You don't.   
      
   Bongino was expressing an OPINION. I guess we shouldn't expect anything less   
   from a liberal, who treats all Conservative OPINIONS as lies, while NOT doing   
   the same with theirs.   
      
   "Some liberal critics have been braying for years that the conservative press   
   is full of hacks who will say anything in order to froth up their audience,   
   regardless of truth."   
      
   What fucking hypocritical shit THAT is.   
      
   Faggocrite loses again.   
      
   Most conservative critics have been braying for years that the OVERWHELMINGLY   
   LIBERAL press is full of hacks who will say anything in order to froth up   
   their audience, regardless of truth.   
      
   Braying? The truth, is that the liberal press lies every second of every day,   
   and to deflect THAT truth away from themselves, is to accuse the opposition of   
   doing the same.   
      
   There is no comparison. The press is overwhelmingly left-wing liberal, so the   
   vast majority of lying is coming from the left.   
      
   "And yet, here Bongino is, blithely admitting that in his case, the critics   
   are right: He was saying things he didn't have evidence for and maybe didn't   
   even believe."   
      
   See? Even The Shatlantic doesn't even know if Bongino KNEW, so YOU don't know   
   either, faggot.   
      
   Piss off, TDS sufferer.   
      
   =============================================================================   
      
   "Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition   
      
   All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.   
      
   "Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has   
   been driven effectively insane due to their dislike of Donald Trump, to the   
   point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."   
      
   Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the   
   Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into three distinct phases or   
   stages:   
      
   "In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The   
   president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, as if 140 characters were   
   all it took to change the world."   
      
   "The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's   
   vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting solely of   
   hyperbole."   
      
   "As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from   
   reality."   
      
   The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk   
   opposition from liberals to anything and everything Trump does. If Trump   
   announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would   
   suggest he was up to something nefarious, according to the logic of TDS.   
   There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be   
   received positively by TDSers.   
      
   The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early   
   2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a punch line for late-   
   night comics and nothing more.   
      
   Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first   
   coined by the late conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer back in 2003.   
   The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in   
   otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay -   
   the very existence of George W. Bush."
