As was the memo/pseudo-transcript (not 100% guaranteed as they are hand-typed, no recordings of calls are made any more in the US in the aftermath of Watergate) on the call between Presidents Trump and Zelenskyy[*]:

    It is pointless to discuss with you when all your important thoughts and decisions are already being controlled by someone else. You still get to choose which sportsball team is your favorite though.

    Um. By scare-quoting "news" you make a pretty strong claim, and then based on

    one specific news source instead leaned that Trump was "totally exonerated" by the Mueller report

    you conclude the GP had to have been watching one specific stream.

    But GP clearly watches through multiple media sources, or wouldn't know that "totally exonerated" is being claimed by some.

    Then you make a sportsball reference to try to win nerd points.

    Sorry though, anyone bothering to actually read what you wrote ought to realize you're trolling (or shilling, who cares). Try being more subtle next time.
