There are links, and there are links. No, I’m not interested in your far right highly biased links, especially when you don’t summarize them in advance. Try using your own words. It’s fun and interesting.

Well said. The right wingers like yourself and Trump are indeed “leading” this nation into the hell of extremism.

And “believe” what you want, when you’re dead, you’re dead.

Have you ever heard of Godwin's Law? It states that when a debater compares the debate opponent, their position or shifts the topic to Hitler, the debate is over and they lost.

We need to come up with a version, maybe call it "Not Insane's Law" that states, "when a debater compares the debate opponent, their position or shifts the topic to Trump, the debate is over and they lost."

I swear that guy is living rent free in a lot of people's heads.

“Living rent free in other people’s heads” is just another common right wing talking point.
And I now note that one of your primary debate techniques is to simply not acknowledge pertinent points by other chatters, and also to use a lot of strawmen. Certainly makes it easy when you just debate yourself.

My take: Using the words "talking point" is usually used as a talking point.

And your "debate yourself" comment is comical. Again, you are deflecting from the topic by turning this into a thread about me. I'm flattered and all, but could we stay on topic please.

Your accusation that I'm using strawmen is comical. Please, give an example. If you are going to call me a poopyhead, at least show the poop.

Sorry, but if you use what Don referred to as chat tricks, then a reasoned debate becomes very difficult. And your claim about “living in my head” or that of the other liberals was “deflecting from the topic” at hand. You should not make it so darned easy to point out your psychological projection.

Lol. The Reich wingnuts here have a VERY low education level, obviously.

Those who don't read widely are so easily influenced by the propaganda of the hate-mongers.
