Trump and "fake news"

In This is One of Trump's Most Dangerous Plays (Other than thePossibility of a Nuclear War, of Course) the author, TheDogFather, is talking to the people in America about Trumps obsession with fake news. He is trying to get his point across that Trumps isn't really worried about fake news, he's worried about people finding out the truth to his lies. The author states that the news Trump claims to be fake is coming from good honest sources like: CNN, New York Times, and Politico. In my opinion not, all the news is fake, however I do believe that if someone wanted to get a fake story out they would find a way. The author also is trying to educate and show Americans that Trump is dictator like. Trump wants the people In America to not know what is going on and do things behind our backs. Corruption in the United States is bad enough. Even with this is do believe that Donald Trump is trying to confuse the people in America. He wants to take all the attention off his lies and bad decisions. In the end we can only believe what has been put in front of us. So of course, we will never really know exactly what is happening in our government. We as Americans need to stay sharp and think logically about what we are being showed on TV and in the papers.  Although in don’t completely agree with the author I do believe his information can be trusted. Evidence does support that Trump has indeed lied on numerous occasions.

Gun Control in America

The intended audience of the blog is for people who don't think that guns are too easily accessible. In the article the author talks about how people in power are trying to take the attention off of the guns themselves and only outlaw the accessories that make the guns more efficient. The author is trying to persuade people to take a stand against the "lax" gun laws the U.S has. He  is also trying to make it known that president Trump is doing nothing to help. Even though less people own guns now days than they did before the author points out that it doesn't change the fact that Americans who have guns stockpile them. It is also pointed out that the shooter from the massacre in Las Vegas had been stockpiling weapons for years with never once being asked what the guns were for. The author feels that  In my opinion I don't think that stricter gun laws would make a big difference. Drugs are illegal in the united states and are still bought daily and used in every city in the U.S. The illegal gun trade would also benefit from stricter gun laws.I do feel that it should be looked into to make sure that the laws that are in effect are being abided by. I think it should be harder to get guns however I don't think there should a limit on how many guns you can have. The blogger has good data and facts and is a credible source.
