It's enough, all things considered,

That sounds good, intelligent, worth doing. Because it sounds good and supports the anti-China thrust that you like, you enjoy believing it. But it's not what Trump says he is doing. Trump instead...

Will look into what Mr. Stiglitz has to say. But the intellectual property thing, I think, is not a 'trade-deal defect.' It was never spelled out in some deal that 'we have to give China all the tech...

The question before us is none of that. The question before us is whether Trump is effectively directing policy to address such concerns.

I don't like what debate teams do. Pretty much like boxing. Words are just a substitute for fists. The only actual meaning is the score.

You misunderstand much. It may be that I am opaque, it may...

I am backing away from nothing.

You are deliberately misunderstanding in order to criticize. Conversation with you remains what it always is, a fight, at your insistence. :(

Dodges the point. It's really not central how 'out there' the example is or isn't, although the 5th Avenue thing is of course Trump's own hyperbole (one hopes it's hyperbole). The point was to invite...

The 'no' means Trump is free to engage in more dangerous lawlessness, such as I suggested, if motivated. Fear of prosecution if out of power would be a strong motivator.

This unfortunately is...

Just answer this. Would the current Senate vote to convict on impeachment if Trump did go out on 5th Avenue and shoot someone?

Not while staying inside the lines, he can't. But I expect arresting far fewer than 40 members of the House would get him his wall.

The US has a corrupt elite.
This makes the masses frustrated, angry, and cynical.
Thus Trump, who claims (dishonestly) to be their champion against the elite.
