This should be posted in every Trump-vs-Biden quibble thread.
Right-leaners SHOULD be able to say, “Yeah, that’s a bad move,” when it comes to stuff like Trump-tweets such as the one that started this thread. Bad mojo there, Don. But far too often the response is, “But Biden …”
On the flip side, left-leaners should be able to do the same about Biden’s stuff. Instead the response is, “But Trump…”
Maybe someone could post some of these Biden quotes. Trump says something distasteful, then there are references to nebulous Biden quotes where he apparently has said something equally distasteful or worse. If he has, I’d have no problem denouncing them. I think that’s the issue. Trump comes out and says something using his own letterhead. We then hear how bad Biden is but there’s nothing to back it.
I made an observation about something we could all employ and improve the level of discussion here. You’re just calling for remaining at the garbage level of exchange we have already.
What is the “stuff” that left-leaners should denounce? I’m not being trite. That was told to me in this very thread.
What am I defending? Where are the statements from Biden in which he has said something which needs defended or denounced? I’m not saying that was from you.
It is intentional. It energizes a segment of society that identifies with and appreciates his irreverence. Their support is the source of his leveraged with the party that otherwise might go with another leader.
