You’re the most tribal writer on here
Anything said about Trump or his party brings an attack, perhaps it is because your identity is so closely tied to your political beliefs.

Thank You Pete,for once again showing you are incapable of independent thoughts. You make veiled accusations and retreat under the guise of semantics. Very brave you are,ha. I can probably point to dozens of posts where Jim calls Trump a jerk or something less than flattering. The amount of times I have seen you criticize the Democratic Party is stuck at zero. Blind partisanship, plain and simple.

"Did I say you are a racist "

You said resistance to Obama was based on skin color. Pretty sure that's the textbook definition of racism. Hi spolicies were guaranteed to offend everyone to the right of Castro.

"You’re the most tribal writer on here "

The hell I am. I bash Trump all the time. I give Obama credit all the time for the economy and terrorism. I wholeheartedly support gay marriage and oppose the death penalty, and I think conservatives are too rabidly opposed to gun control. And I think people born sick should get free healthcare to cover conditions they have been born with. You tell me, on what major issues do you disagree with the liberal platform? When you have you posted anything that wasn't completely in support of liberalism?

Very, very thinly veiled accusations.

It was a very cowardly dodge.

It’s quite comical who you think I am, since I’ve voted pretty straight party line for most of my 60+ years until the last election
The change I see in the Republican Party since the Tea Party takeover is horrific and it needs to lose
Until Trump I was a Republican

Why did you used to be a Republican?

Those are contradictory statements. Is it the tea party that drove you away, or Trump?

You're trying to have a conversation with an intellectual drunk who can't quite put his finger on exactly the what and how is, but floats generalized ideas explained by unverified labels.

Trump took the Tea Party rhetoric and did a much better job of playing on the fears of people.
Now the Republican party is repeating the mistakes of the Goldwater era.
Those mistakes brought, in the next few terms, all the progressive evils that conservatives now rail about.
Few Americans have all extreme views, left or right, which is why things always come back towards the center.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Your typical vague statement loaded with labels and memes that somehow are supposed to take the place of verification.
