You may not trust the author, but those were quotes. That means the article was sourced.
The quotes maybe sourced, but the author wove a narrative around them that put them in the light he wanted. I’m sorry but the people at the LA Times are lockstep with the Democrat Party, misinformation to discredit and sow discord is their mission.
TDS sufferers minds are made up; don't confuse them with facts.
Quotes without attribution are meaningless. Here, hold my beer and watch this:
"map beats his wife" so said an unnamed source with intimate knowledge of his marriage, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Since I'm the author, citing an unnamed / unattributed source and I'm quoting someone, that's true isn't it?
Of course it's not.
