Only really works if he topic is fully irrelevant within domain of the discussion.
Personally, I consider the compulsion many people have to put a pound of contempt into every ounce of contrition they grant Trump's administration to be childish, and honestly quite alarming for its ubiquity.
But if we want to get to a point where people who vociferously oppose trump are willing to tolerate reasoned dialogues considering the administration's legacy, I think collectively loosening our expectations around tone for comments that are otherwise well thought out and cut against the communal grain for a bit could help fix things.
"Fuck that guy, but he's occasionally right for the wrong reasons" is a significant improvement on "Fuck that guy, always and don't question it".
