And just in case you think he meant Snopes, he did not. He said Snopes and then a separate website that he’s never heard of before since he just made it up called Snoops.

“She talked about the Charlottesville hoax,” Trump said while complaining that the debate moderators did not fact-check Harris. “And these people did nothing about it, which has been totally debunked, as they say, by Snopes and snoops and everybody else. Hey, go look it up. Go to snoops, whatever the hell that is. No, I hear that’s a liberal site and they came out totally in favor of me. That’s got to be a bad thing, but they said they gave you a total phony stories.”

    Why are “make housing affordable again” and “no tax on tips” the only two policies important enough to print on the background behind him? Is AZ overly concerned with the pay structure of restaurant employees?

      I don’t understand the “no tax on tips” angle, like everyone on yhe US is tired of being asked for tips everywhere, how many people they think are going to be engaged by that?

          I could see how consulting firms and lawyers become tipping professions eventually, where every job is below minimum wage while getting the rest on untaxed tips.

            It’s also a loophole for people like Trump to take advantage of because a tip isn’t owed, it’s voluntary. So he’ll be able to get away with not paying his bills by promising some tip and then reneging on that promise for whatever reason and then only take the reputation hit rather than that plus maybe a lawsuit if they pursue it.
