That's not absurd at all. Just because your enemy behaves badly doesn't make it acceptable for you to behave badly.
- albacur 6y agoIt makes it acceptable to defend yourself. If you want claim the president shouldn't have sole authority to ban foreign companies or products, that's fair. And I don't know that he actually has that power, it could all be bluster. I mean, he also said he would make Mexico pay for a border wall.
