This is how we know Trump is winning...there are so many day-to-day distractions that stories and pictures like these will never be covered by the mainstream media.  This thread will probably not receive a single comment, in fact.   Just that picture of the WV man’s teeth is going to haunt me for awhile.

I took a glance.  I've seen similar articles a lot recently, especially on Skid Row in LA.  You just have to know where to look, CNN and Fox News don't waste their time with stories like this.

If they're both 24 hour news networks with no time to cover the rampant poverty problem in our country, then that says a lot about their priorities as news networks and ours as a society.
