You just don't get it, and you likely never will.

Not much to "get". You are still a Trump supporter, meaning you have zero morality. You support a man who refuses to disown nazis, and who thinks they are morally equivalent to decent people who understandably detest nazis. You're a very sad excuse for a human being.

Please show me where you told a blue they were right without immediately making a point discounting your agreement. And while you're at it, why not explain what it is for the forum.

Folks around here are celebrating the ouster of Steve Bannon As stated earlier, I agree that it was long overdue.

I'm not sure what you're asking in your 2nd Q.

Recall you said I'd never get it?

He was asking you to explain what 'it' is.

Do you realize that no one on this forum has EVER asked me my opinion on Trump? Just because I think the "Russian cullusion " thing is a gigantic lefty fueled sideshow...as one CNN host called it - a nothing-burger...the assumption was that I "liked Trump". That highlight the lousy reporting based on anonymous sourcing, I "liked Trump". It's fascinating.

I think there lots of "assumptions" folks are willing to make because they think they're tight and want to be right, but it simply closes them off to other possibilities . For example, I'm now a racist because I suggested that folks with rather unpopular opinions have freedom of speech.

The have freedom of speech, but this doesn't shield them from reaction or consequenses of the content. Particularly as provocation.

You're right, it doesn't. It also doesn't justify vigilantism.

You don't like Trump?

What I notice is you've never met an anti-Trump argument that you like, and you will make or repeat the most vacuous counter-arguments.

You are anti-anti-Trump, for some reason. Maybe it's because you like Trump, or maybe it's for some other reason.

Make and "anti-Trump argument" that I like, and I'l support it.
