Liberalism and conservatism have both degenerated into irrelevant farce, but in the Age of Trump nothing is more needed than clear thinking.

We complain all the time that it's hard to know the truth about anything. But in actual practice, it's quite obvious who actually cares about the truth, and who is simply saying whatever crap they feel the need to say to protect their tribe.

@FOX2now WTF?

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

President Trump doing absolutely nothing while a Russian spy unit pays the Taliban to kill US soldiers is a profound betrayal of our troops. It’s also the definition of a failed Commander-in-Chief. https://t.co/Sb8PMUeEZ8

@AfterDemotism @BreitbartNews D'oh!

@AfterDemotism @BreitbartNews If wage labor is less exploitative than slavery then how exploitative something is doesn't matter very much.

[Thomas Kaempfen @ThomasKaempfen]

It's hard to imagine a more egregious false equivalence than the one made between the North and the South in the American Civil War.

[Jeff Sessions @jeffsessions]

... whose courage & duty reached the highest levels, on both sides. Naming U.S. bases for those who fought for the South was seen as an act of respect and reconciliation towards those who were called to duty by the States.

@AfterDemotism @BreitbartNews How about:

"This person fought to expand a system so bad that many of its subjects would rather have been slaves in the antebellum South."

Sound good?

[Thomas Kaempfen @ThomasKaempfen]

Trump, of course, is much, much farther from America and much, much more destructive of the American we have known.

[Newt Gingrich @newtgingrich]

Our choice this fall is not between President Trump and President Perfection. It is between President Trump and a nightmare that would end America as we have known it.

Ridiculous. Biden, Pelosi and Schumer won't end America as we have known it. For better and worse, they are America as we have known it for decades.

Voting by mail should be implemented nationwide.

Pass it on.

@_famousseamus @sullydish @agavedelacalle The number of people on the left with less that a bedrock commitment to free speech has increased dramatically, especially in the last few years. I see it every day on twitter! That said, it's true that Sullivan's predictions tend to run to the apocalyptic.

[Andrew Sullivan @sullydish]

This is beyond chilling. It’s the logic of purges and cultural revolution and mob ‘justice’. It has over 400K likes. Liberal democracy is extinct.

[Thomas Kaempfen @ThomasKaempfen]

Wow! From the mayor of a major American city!

[Thomas Kaempfen @ThomasKaempfen]

@jaynordlinger Guilty conscience.

[Thomas Kaempfen @ThomasKaempfen]

I have fans!

@ThomasKaempfen @DiamondandSilk You are an idiot!!! You and others like you are so blinded by lies and deceit.

[Thomas Kaempfen @ThomasKaempfen]

@BASchulte2 @DiamondandSilk You're like a Kung Fu Master at twitter, aren't you.

[Thomas Kaempfen @ThomasKaempfen]

@PIAccount1 @ConceptualJames I remember reading about it in New York magazine article by Andrew Sullivan, if that helps.
