A lot of people over here are very pro-trump, and just use this as a way to defend him.

It's the same reason why anything non-tech gets flagged nowadays until dang removes protects the threads: they don't want to see news attacking their "Dear Leader", so they flag it as non-relevant. If it was a story about a democrat doing something wrong, I'm pretty sure they won't get flagged as quickly.

Dang: would be REALLY interesting to compare who is flagging with their comments in these and other threads.
