    Well this shark might not be real, but this mosquito definitely is - it's all over the Canadian news.

    Previous record was 11 pounds. Impressive. Maybe the reason the shark in the original story got so big is because he ate those huge mosquitoes.

    how is it different? it highlights how quick people are to jump at a headline and believe it just because it's a headline. no different than "Hillary sex scandal!" or "Trump is a russian spy!".

    A big shark being caught is plausible. 

    A smart Donald Trump should be impossible to fathom.

    There you have the underlying basis for my comment.

    your personal view of plausibility is irrelevant though. all levels of intelligence can get duped from time to time. it all depends on our own views and biases and willingness to believe things we're told at face value. 

    to be perfectly honest, prior to Trump becoming a nominee and speaking publicly unscripted, I just assumed he must he intelligent and successful, because that's how his brand was presented. I had no reason to believe he was a bumbling idiot who couldn't run a business. it was only after all the facts came out that I knew the truth. Partly because I had no reason to research it (why would I give a shit about the actual wealth and intellect of a celebrity?), and partly because I just believed what was fed to me through media.
