It’s hard to tell given his near universal unwillingness to actually put his opinions forward in this thread. I have to make educated guesses and since he has an obvious pro-Trump bias, I didn’t take that observation as though it was a criticism.
Jay has put his opinions out there front and center. And I see no pro-Trump bias.
I don’t understand how you couldn’t see it. The refusal to acknowledge most of the President’s faults is a pro-Trump bias in my opinion.
As Jay suggested it’s tedious and unnecessary to constantly criticise Trump. I call that preservation of sanity, not bias.
That’s Trump apologia. This man is the powerful person on the planet. Constantly talking about him, whether it’s criticism or not, is totally reasonable. How is it unnecessary to criticize the bad decisions made by the President? It’s not like we’re constantly talking about Alex Jones or Roy Moore or someone comparatively irrelevant.
Jay doesn’t like what the Obama Administration did under Title IX and so he liked the reversal of the policy under Trump. It doesn’t follow that he has a pro-Trump bias or that he doesn’t believe there are better alternative policies.
It’s not just that that makes him have a pro-Trump bias. I came to that conclusion because he has redirected every single criticism of Trump that I and others have brought up either to a previous administration or to something else. For example, the terrible environmental policy of Trump gets redirected to how Obama had a legacy of executive orders so now it’s getting reversed. Trump demanding a safe space in the theatre for Mike Pence gets redirected to some vague and mysterious and irrelevant-to-this-example “hypocrisy” on the left. Trump’s refusal to disavow white supremacists gets redirected to Obama supposedly not disavowing black supremacists. The fascist and inhumane immigration policies of Trump get watered down and dishonestly redirected to Obama and previously existing policy even though it’s been pointed out to him many times that Trump’s family separation policy isn’t a carry-over from previous administrations. The list goes on and on. You not seeing the pro-Trump, pro-rightwing bias is due to your inability to perceive it, not to it being nonexistent.
