Well said, ender.
Particularly how certain views take on a popularity that shuts out dissent.
As for ignoring important issues, this caught my eye.
If the Republicans want me to judge them fairly, they need to stop supporting Trump.
ender’s point that I agree with goes far beyond treating Republicans fairly. It’s about debating global warming, net neutrality, religious practices, abortion, feminism, etc. I care about that more than a hang up with a particular politician.
The politicians make the laws and hire the judges though. You can’t ignore the politicians if you want to debate the things the politicians have a say in.
Right. I’m just contesting Warb’s idea that treatment of Pence or whoever hinges on Trump. Clearly you’re judging Pence for his positions and that’s fine.
