just like the CNN, ABC, NBC polls in the election. Sorry, people want border security and extreme vetting.” Two days later, Trump posted a picture of one poll that supports his claim. Still, Trump’s claim is bullshit because he arbitrarily claims sources are “fake” so he can ignore their evidence, doesn’t care to examine the poll he cites, and is ultimately trying to influence how his followers view the media. Because every American can’t be surveyed, it’s impossible to determine the absolute…

years, and I would think that back then there would be some sources that could help college students like the sources there are today. There may have not been blogs back then, but there were sources such as college catalogues. Talking to people at the colleges or universities could also help incoming freshmen obtain advice. College is such a large community so if you ever need advice or motivation, and you did not want to use the sources previously listed then you could just talk to another…
