Yeah I heard about that. But I want to see full facts and context because I don’t want to join a group and find out they are a lynch mob with bad information.

Facts and context, facts and context. They require work which is why most people don’t bother. But it doesn’t mean we should just buy what’s being peddled to us.

Look at #32 above at my example (large paragraph about half way down) of how wrong we can be based on incomplete facts and lack of context.

You won’t have to look very long.

Trump not that long ago said the Canadian healthcare system was the model we should use and that the US system was killing us. He also said single payer was the way to go. Additional context can’t really fix that. Now he says the “free market” is the solution. You can’t have it both ways. Nor can there be such a dramatic swing in fundamental core beliefs at his age over such a short time.

If we refuse to acknowledge his past, how on earth can we predict the future he’d likely bring.

Yes, he’s saying nearly all the right things now but his past is also there for anyone willing to look. It isn’t pretty on a number of fronts.

For me much of this sounds like echos of Obama back in 2008. He’ll be the great “uniter” and work with everyone, provide transparency, bring out economy back, etc. All ignoring his past, a past filled with just the opposite.
