That would have been a coincidente. Are you willing to gamble your wellbeing on a lucky hunch?

I still don't understand this logic process. Asserting something with no evidence is arguably worse, than pointing out the absurdity of it.

No, wait for the scientific evidence. But both trump and the media took a stance without any evidence, pro and against.

Both are just as bad as each other.

This couldn't be further from the truth.

An assertion without evidente is a lie. Pointing out that someone is making assertions without evidente is not a lie.

If Trump were to say that the sky is actually orange, and provided no evidence, would you take on the media for reporting that what he said had no foundation on reality?

That's nuts.
