> Someone quoted Trump's opinion, several of us pointed out that it's not particularly novel or unique, and now we are being lectured about how absolutes are wrong? I'm not talking about Trump's opinion about Germany's dependence on Russia, which, I agree, is "not particularly novel or unique". Why did you bring up the TPP, even though it's irrelevant to this conversation? It seems to me that it was purely as a criticism of Trump ("glass houses"), as if no positive statement about Trump could ever be allowed to pass without criticism.
