Meaning, not Fox News. It never fails to stump them. They never want to admit that Fox is their only source.

do you believe Russia is our enemy? That usually stops them in their tracks. They find it hard to say 'no' to that question. Once they acknowledge that Russia is our enemy - it usually shuts them up because even they know - with Trump - where there is smoke there is fire.

I'll say something like - Are you kidding me? You don't believe that Russia is our enemy? Why?

Then I'll have them explain.

I got that far with only one person - and he had no explanation and he just shut up and changed the subject.
