Lostspark: Generally agreed that goyim will be goyim. But there is no denying that Trump has gone to the extreme, for example, to stay in power, the likes of which we’ve never seen in U.S. history. It’s too general to say this extreme is on both sides. Gore filed suit against Bush but respected the court’s decision against him. So this does warrant special attention and the truly patriotic need to speak up to preserve national stability, which we’ve always benefited from. Criticizing Trump “feeds” it a bit because it keeps Trump in the news, which he thrives on. But again, we need to call it out. What really feeds it are the Trump cultists who are egging him on. ALL of Trump’s advisors and campaign officials agree it was a fair election. So his supporters are what keeps him feeling powerful and talking.
Smerel: yes, I agree you are consistent on those talking points. Point #3 is a matter of degree, as I write above. Politicians lie and are self-interested. But none are SO self-interested that they are willing to manufacture conspiracy theories and ignore votes.
I don’t understand your #4. Anti-Trumpers have more power over Trump supporters than Trump does?
