Oh dear, are you really questioning the "fact" that one can "tweak" The Trends in Twitter?

That is *********** amazing!

Setting up preferences isn't "tweaking" trends at all. You have no effect on the trends you're just eliminating those more popular trends you don't want to see.

Which has the same effect on one's perceptions as refusing to read/watch main stream media while strictly limiting oneself to alt-right "news" sources.

The only trending item on twitter beating #hillaryisdone is

#WRITEINBERNIE!

Fantastics!

AFTER getting caught in a lie, you THEN have to admit that you tweak your
twitter trends to see what you want.

Sad.

Maybe you should drop this whole twitter trends topic, you lost any credibility here.
 
Probably the first decision Melania has made on her own since they were married.

Collusion between the so-called unbiased media and one of the main subjects of their reporting?

I'm curious, do you include Fox News among the "so-called unbiased media"? Or does Fox's open partisanship make collusion OK?

ETA: You quoted this ...
Trends tailored just for you.

Trends offer a unique way to get closer to what you care about. They are tailored for you based on your location and who you follow.

... and I'm guessing the source is Twitter (I am not sure how Twitter works :o)

It stumps me that so many want to tailor their new feed ... I feel that to be informed I should get information from a variety of sources. I often can't stand watching Fox News because of what I consider a lack of professionalism as a news outlet, but I'll listen to talk radio which is openly opinionated. I often don't bother with Huffington Post, CNBC etc. I'll look at CNN, BBC and Al Jazeera. I am not too comfortable with WikiLeaks because Julian Assange is so obviously political in his efforts. I was in what you probably would consider the mainstream media for nearly 30 years and I definitely take what's said there with a grain of salt.

I suppose in a way I do want news tailored to me but only in the sense that for me, that means culling from a broad array of sources and viewpoints. To deliberately skew my news to offer me only positions I agree with would defeat the purpose of following the news at all.

I've cast ballots in a small town in the North East of England, in an "up and coming" part of South East London, an affluent Bristol suburb and now a Welsh village and the longest queue I can remember was about ten people. It seems that there is a shortage of polling stations in parts of the US, and in the UK.

So you're saying it seems there is a shortage of polling places in the UK? Everything else you said supports the idea that there are an adequate number of polling places.

This post doesn't address any critical issue; I'm just trying to make sure I understand your post.
 
You know, I hate to say it, but it is looking likely that Hillary Clinton really is done.

Something bloody wrong with this country.

Too many people nominating and voting for horribly flawed candidates that a majority of people dislike. The trick is to pick a candidate that a majority of people like and are eager to support.

Uh, Donald is even more disliked than Clinton. You can't use favourability rating to explain this.

That is unclear yet in the current polling. but the problem is that a majority of people dislike both candidates.
 
I don't know if this is the right time to mention it, since maybe it's kicking a man when he's down, but a few of us have repeatedly mocked Trump supporters, saying "Get used to saying 'Madam President'."

It wasn't a pleasant comment when it was made, but it looks both churlish and foolish now.

Not it isn't. Hillary had a 10 point advantage. Donald is loathed and it doesn't seem to matter. It looks like an honest to goodness spite vote and there's nothing you can do to fight that.
