I won't even be posting in it. Just would prefer it kept to one thread.

This thread would probably be inactive if people didn't post about Trump in it. Again, it's easier for it to be here because then you're not meant to discuss just one topic. Trump or not, if the news story works in here, then it goes here. Having another thread would just be monotonous.

Given that this thread had 500+ pages before the Trump threads were deleted the idea that it would be inactive if we had a Trump thread is fake news tbh.

All that would happen is news would be posted again and we could discuss it without having to filter through post after post of Trump.

What's that third link got to do with anything?

None of the Trump links are unbelievable. He thinks Google is rigged. So?

I wasn't just choosing Trump stories, it was the top stories. Also the believability requirement .

Except the top story on The Independent is actually Corbyn's antisemitism and May vs Boris.
