How does one “amplify” that, exactly? How does one blow that out of proportion?

So when Trump says we have to stop this, it’s not possible that he actually wants to prevent mass rape. It can’t be that decent, it has to be a right wing hoax.

You think the right wing media is making too big a deal, out of the fact that 4 out of 5 women gay attacked down there. Better to completely ignore it like the last few presidents.

You callthat a manufactured crisis?

You amplify things by finding something that seems to reinforce your position and then repeating it, getting repeated and citing the repetition as true. Just look up propaganda.

In 2014 Huffington Post published the article that you cite as the basis for your belief. It has been disproven numerous times. Though if as you seem to claim, everything they publish is true, you probably should examine your core beliefs Huffington Post: Trump finally admits his campaign colluded with Russia at Trump Tower meeting

If Floridaman's concern is about the welfare of Central American asylum seekers, why is he sending them to a less safe harbor in Guatemala or deporting them to Mexico to await decisions?
