Just Take A Look At How Massive A Liar Bronto Is

Bronto claimed Conservatives earn more money than liberals. When this was disproved, he then changed his argument to "on average". Then he cherry-picked a single line from a 2012 FAQ about debt, claimed "checkmate" and then ran away. The line he cherry-picked was:-

An individual’s likelihood of being a Democrat decreases with every additional dollar he or she earns.

Of course, he didn't bother reading his own source further than that, otherwise he would have come across this:-

While Democrats lose support as income increases, there seems to be a tipping point where the ultra-wealthy begin leaning Democratic. The most famous example would be the entertainment industry, where star-studded events have become a significant part of Democratic culture.

But this phenomenon is not limited to Hollywood. A review of the 20 richest Americans, as listed by Forbes Magazine, found that 60 percent affiliate with the Democratic Party, including the top three individuals: Bill Gates, Warren Buffett and Larry Ellison. Among the richest families, the Democratic advantage rises even higher, to 75 percent.

Let me remind you again: this information is from his own source:-


Watch him get destroyed and then run away here:-

Liar? I think he's very "Trump-like" and THINKS everything he says is true. Its obviously a "massive" problem, likely brought on by their "upbringin'". Sad …. and likely incurable. I don't think even, "Lockin' them up" will help. Better to put them in a place where they can't hurt the country anymore. ;-(

In this debate about someone else’s dishonesty, you posted The line he cherry-picked was:-

“An individual’s likelihood of being a Democrat decreases with every additional dollar he or she earns.”

The line he actually cherry picked was “Financially, Conservatives fare better than liberals or independents."

The line he actually cherry picked was “Financially, Conservatives fare better than liberals or independents."

You are correct, but I wasn't being dishonest. I was unable to check exactly which line he had used while writing my post so I got mixed up. The fact that you are deliberately assuming I made a mistake therefore I must be dishonest actually illustrates very well which of us is dishonest, since you have done so completely absent any evidence or even motive.

Whichever of the two lines he cherry-picked makes no difference, because he still omitted to explain that this is only true until a certain point, where wealthy people begin to vote Democrat. If 75 percent of the richest families vote Democrat, then obviously this is going to bring the average in favour of Democrats.
