There is absolutely ZERO evidence of the shitty pay to play thing that people tried to fabricate . Literally none . And saying that Nixon and Reagan didn ' t get paid to do shady shit and therefore are somehow not shady is just a fucking dumb argument and you know that . <| sep |> Pence will never be on the same level as JB <| sep |> This is very true . A black friday special TV will only last about 8 months . They are built to fail . These TVs use LEDs in a series , like Christmas lights , and if one light fails , none of the lights will work . Not only that but the LEDs are meant to be driven at about 50 % brightness to last 3 to 6 years . By default they come set to run at 90 % brightness and so failures occur in as little as 9 months . If you crank your TV up to 100 % brightness you might get 6 months . Also the mainboard , power supply and led driver board are built onto one board , and they use substandard components chinese capacitors vs . japanese and less safety features . I ' ve seen TVs bought on black friday that in no way would meet FCC or CE requirements for safety .
