Disagreement is no longer permitted. No matter which "side" you're on, the other side is relegated to a platitude.

- ryanwaggoner 9y agoPerfectly said, but ironically, since I'm not on "the other side" here from a political perspective. I voted for Bush twice, Obama once, didn't vote in 2012 (sadly) but would have voted for Romney, and wouldn't be saying any of this if Mike Pence was president. But amusingly, you assume that my disapproval of Trump means that I'm "on the other side" and just spouting platitudes. Ironic.
- ColanR 9y agoeh, I only got the impression you were "on the other side" when you mentioned flipping control of congress.
- ryanwaggoner 9y agoFor better or worse (probably worse) we have a two party system, and one party has full control of Congress and the executive branch. So "flipping control" in this case means breaking that lock on power. I don't really want Democrats to hold Congress and the White House either.
