    Frankly, I kind of feel like you’re looking awfully hard for a way to stir shit.

    We use news articles all the time reporting statements from governments; there’s certainly no requirement to only use primary sources. If any news source would be acceptable as a secondary source to report a government’s statements, I’d think BBC in the UK, DW in Germany, France24 in France, or RFE/RL in the US would be the one you’d use.

    And I don’t see what this business about two parties has to do with the matter.

      Unfortunately modern political discourse has gotten to the point of consistent standards often being met with that accusation.

      Have a nice life tho, I appreciate you being honest about it at least, I just don’t have time for people who think that way
