Lindsey Graham Calls J.D. Vance A Jerk

The whole thing is made up. In the description to this video, right at the very end, is the following notice:

Why was this story made up?
I think it's what's called click bait. People get paid by YouTube ads by the number of views.

People click onto something thinking it's news, especially if it's shocking and their view generates money for the YouTuber who posted that lie.

I've been noticing a LOT of that lately. Liars all of them.

They bait people by telling them something they want to hear like "listen to Barron Trump sing this hym" , Melania shares her faith, or something that shocks them and sounds like news like this one.

Often it's "good" news that you hope to hear about the headlines. It's no such thing or it's been blown way out of proportion. So watch out for the ones who specialize in telling you what you want to hear.

YouTube has an algorithm that suggest videos based on what you've watched in the past. So they KNOW what you want to see.

And then they feed it to you. They know that people want "good" news and will click into "bad" news too so based on their idea of your politics they feed stuff to your YT feed to suggest those types of channels.

Meanwhile they work to suck you in. The "headline" that got you to click in, is sometimes never even mentioned, but they kept people watching to the end.

It's all a sucker game. Liars and con artists.

For what it's worth Janice, my feed is loaded with amateur theologians spouting the worst nonsense, because I like to watch several GOOD and GODLY and BIBLE BASED prophecy channels. Or housekeeping and minimalism, grocery shopping and other things I like.

But the grocery shopping and housekeeping channels rarely get a lot of views, so they don't have these fakers. Ditto the animals I like to watch.

Same, noticing more and more on FB. They do have a pattern, they announce an enticing story but leave out the final word or phrase so the reader is curious..... then when they click they find as you said, a click bait ad-filled piece or worse, a virus notice. :tsk:
