I can't believe how fucking stupid you are. 

Read it again.

They left out the part about naming OTHER satellite companIES.

They saying only, "often mentioning Starlink by name", is a lie by omission.

You think ANY of the countries involved never asked about OTHER satellite companies and Rubio simply refused to talk about ANY of 
the "others"?

Riiiiiight.

=====

Do you REALLY think NO other companies were mentioned? Do you REALLY think other countries are stupid, like you, and wouldn't ASK 
about the other companies, or research them to see who's cheaper or can do a better job or... or...?

All you're going on, stupid, is what the ComPost is saying, and THAT'S my point... they're lying by omitting that other companies 
were mentioned, and you just eat it up... because you're a stupid liberal who believes such lies.

WE were not there, so WE don't know whether other companies were mentioned.

Yes, Starlink WAS mentioned, but was the ONLY country mentioned, or does The ComPost think YOU'RE stupid and will believe THEM, 
and ONLY them? 

If Starlink was mentioned, the others were "mentioned" too.

HOW you can take this, as to mean that ONLY Starlink was mentioned, is beyond comprehension.

Oh yeah... forgot... liberal.

"A series of internal government messages obtained by The Post reveal how U.S. embassies and the State Department have pushed 
nations to clear hurdles for U.S. satellite COMPANIES (not just one), often mentioning Starlink by name."

And there was NO mentioning of the other satellite companies involved? Do you REALLY think those other companies would simply 
stand for that, if indeed, THEY weren't mentioned?

God DAMN you're stupid. You believe anything the winger media says.

And how often did they mention other company names? They don't want to TELL you, to make it seem that Trump and Co. are pushing 
Starlink ONLY, and YOU fell for it.

It must be hell inside that easily brainwashed head.  
 
"The documents do not show that the Trump team has explicitly demanded favors for Starlink in exchange for lower tariffs."

THAT statement, in and of itself, is TELLING you, stupid... that they're trying to lie and hoping you won't read and comprehend 
it.

The "damage" is already done. They have you nodding your head and screeching, "death to TRUMP!", even BEFORE you get to what 
TELLS us they're lying by omission.

"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."
