>(Jesse Watters) A valid source for millions of people
If a million people were to listen to someone who tells them the sky is red and Churchill was a Nazi, then a million people are wrong. Being wrong on the fact is not a matter of opinion. The man is a bad person because he lies, factually, constantly. He has no interest in the truth, or driving debate, or finding common ground.
Pardon me. We were talking about how the former president is the reason his trials keep getting delayed, not because they are without merit.
You went off on a tangent. I never discussed the imperfect nature of our government, the degree to which votes matter or translate into particular action. The moment I challenged your assertion that the former president is a victim, you pivoted to amorphous comments about democracy vs. republic, conflating political beliefs around Progressivism with methods you feel they deploy, and so on. What in the hell does that have to do with the discussion about Trump's numerous indictments?
What you've done is called the gish-gallop, FYI.
In case you wonder: I'm 35, live in Texas and work in cybersecurity. I'm a real person who got a degree, reads some news, and tries to think about the nature of problems and how they can be solved. Where common ground can be found. I value free speech, the rule of law and the idea that there is always work to do to make our society and government better. I like this country. I happen to be liberal.
I assume you too are real, and I hope you have similar values, if not the "liberal" part.
