I was wrong. He left. I own it. Now I'll keep my word. I can't say that I regret it. It's appropriate.
The fact that I was wrong that Trump would engineer a way to stay in the WH, & potentially wrong about an opinion I never vocalized, doesn't change what I laid out all yr 1/

So, he didn't stay. Ok. People who have hated everything I've said because they can't refute it can hang 8/
But he didn't need to. He destroyed the country, walked out a false victim hero, and handed it off to a stooge to take the blame.
He didn't even have his DOJ prosecute PP for selling baby parts.
Why?

The promise was "if Trump leaves politics & goes back to the business world" ... not if he "leaves the white house."

Frankly, if they're going to proceed with Trump's false martyrdom with an impeachment show, while using him as a honeypot to categorize & roundup his supporters, I don't want to watch it anyway.

One of the oddest features of the Labour tax row is how raising allowances, which the media allowed the LDs to describe as progressive (in spite of evidence to contrary) through the coalition years, is now seen by everyone as very right wing

Corbyn opposes the exploitation of foreign sweatshop-workers - Labour MPs complain he's like Nigel
He speaks up in defence of migrants - Labour MPs whinge that he's not listening to the public's very real concerns about immigration:

No, but you can\u2019t keep labeling half of the country Nazis just because their beliefs are different than yours. Trump has fucked this whole country up in a matter of a few years. No one can even have a constructive conversation without someone getting triggered

It's fine for people to hold different beliefs. But that doesn't mean all beliefs deserve equal treatment or tolerance and it doesn't mean intolerance of some beliefs makes a person intolerant of every belief which they don't share.
So if I said I don't think Trumpism deserves to be tolerated because it's just a fresh 21st century coat of cheap paint on a failed, dangerous 20th century ideology (fascism) that doesn't mean I'm intolerant of all beliefs with which I disagree. You'd think this would be obvious.
Another important facet. People who support fascist movements tend to give what they think are valid reasons for supporting them. That doesn't mean anyone is obliged to tolerate fascism or accept their proffered excuse.
Just because some of the politicians act that way doesn\u2019t mean the whole party are Nazis. Some Republicans just vote that way because of abortion. You can\u2019t keep calling all of them Nazis and expect them to just start listening to your points.

Say you joined a neighborhood group that sets up community gardens and does roadside beautification projects. All good, right? Say one day you're having a meeting and you notice the President and exec board of this group are saying some bizarre things about certain neighbors.
