@mkhammer She would literally defend anything that Trump does or says. That’s her job. In other words, press secretaries are 100% full of s**t and we should prob just scrap the position all together
@tommysantos14 You know the way that you frame this (I.e. “this stupid idiot can’t see the obvious truth that I, in my brilliance, see clearly & w/o effort”) makes your point far less effective
Have you considered arguing w/o acting like a total asshat?
Just a thought
@ChrisPlanteShow Prominent dems didn’t celebrate Kirk’s death tho. At least no more than what Trump put out about Reiner. Mostly less actually
The celebrators were all TikTok goobers and campus blue-hairs
@MichaelRCookson@guypbenson Why does that matter? B/c one person acting like a sh**y little as***le that makes it ok for another person to do so?
Things are either morally acceptable, or they are not. This relativism as justification is so destructive.
Trumps behavior here is despicable
@npaladin2000@MichaelRCookson@guypbenson I mean this genuinely and w/o judgement: but did you actually believe there was even the slightest chance Trump would “be the better man”?
That’s not who he is at all. He is a low, vindictive, petulant person. Same can be said of plenty who oppose him, but come on
@jackunheard This just isn’t true. I wish it were, but in reality both sides have ppl who act like ass-hats in these situations. This is evidenced in these very comments
@SarahisCensored Meh. Every time some famous person dies, ppl on the “other side” say “see how gracious we r being? Not like those despicable other-side ppl would be”. But it’s never true bc ppl on both sides are some despicable & some gracious
@AstroGhastly @SarahisCensored To only follow right-leaning ppl seems like waste, there’s plenty to learn from hearing differing opinions. Ppl usually aren’t as easy to pigeon-hole as you might assume.
@KristanHawkins This is your side’s “trans women in women’s sports”
U have a position that lots of ppl agree with (pro-life for the R, trans ppl r ok for the L)
But u blow it up by pushing it too far. Ur asking for too much. This radical idea of urs hurts the cause u care about
@christopherrufo Idk
I’m not exactly a dem, but I used to be
And I always loved America and am grateful to be an American, but I’d still say “no” to this question bc the idea of being proud of a thing I didn’t earn makes no sense to me
@apxhard@Ike_Saul I agree about the analogy problem (as comments make clear)
& to be fair Isaac criticized Biden quite a lot and often
But a side-by-side might be good
@CiceroTheLatest@Ike_Saul You sound unhinged
Isaac sounds rational
It’s not “black letter” 2 send ppl 2 gulags in countries they’re not from
Or masked agents grab ppl off the street. Or deport ppl 4 op-eds
& where he is “just following the law” it’s possible to do so cruelly, which is objectionable
@Coach_Crash @Ike_Saul He more than admits that. Isaac likes guns, he talks about it regularly
& he’s not saying non-citizens have a right to be here ffs. That is not the point he’s making. U r reading him in bad faith bc of ur own bias.
@JohnRic60616750 @Ike_Saul He’s not saying they r perfectly analogous
He’s saying: here r constitutional rights u think important, imagine how it feels having them trampled. No one likes that
Don’t let partisanship make u immune to reasonable discussion
& really? 1 disagreement is discrediting? Ffs man
@ChooseFreewill3@Ike_Saul He didn’t love it at all 🙄
I appreciate that u threw in “probably”, bc it seems like u don’t follow Isaac’s work
He criticized Biden constantly and told everyone to calm down about Trump too…until recently (bc Trump is being very bad)
FWIW I thought Biden was also very bad
@BurtReddington@Ike_Saul No it isn’t. That doesn’t make sense
There is no such thing as a “mandate” to rule. That’s not a thing in America
Plus he didn’t even get 50%. Ur letting partisanship blind u. If a dem behaved as Trump is you’d be upset (& rightly so)
@Os2dZEvxa0@billsbyabill@Sassafrass_84 Daron can be wrong, or he can be lying: he can’t be both
Imo: he’s just wrong. And he’s wrong bc he actually agrees that late-term elective abortion is problematic, so he denies it’s a real thing
So u r also wrong for assuming the worst of ppl u dont know & obv dont understand
