I have yet to see a concise definition of “personal attack” from the powers here. So, I default to the most sinple in what I believe it is.
Anything like “You are a ______” is a personal attack.
Contrast to...
“What you said about ______ is wrong, because _______ “
fwiw
I like how you conveniently ignore the quotes from our Founders who describe the blowhard Trump very accurately
Wrong.
I never said I was an expert on Churchill. But to put Trump in his league is comical.
True, Churchill stepped up when his country needed him. As for Trump, perhaps someday we’ll know his true intentions.
Sigh - tell your kid’s Kindergarten teacher to keep on teaching that winning is for losers and being a man means licking the boots of women - except for the fact that there’s no real difference between men and women - your disdain of his statement of being a lion as preferable to being a sheep shows that you have bought into it all anyway .... Baaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Many, many of us did not get use to Obama nor will we get use to Trump.
Another lying phony fraud has been busted. You and whoever the too timid “and various others” are to step forward.
+1
“What you said about ______ is wrong, because _______ “
Has been tried many times, all in vain. At some point in time these attempts are eventually abandoned. Especially when examples as you provided are met with nasty retorts impugning either Trump, which indirectly includes supporters as well, or just the person they are responding to.
In addition constant repetition of the same old tired arguments will also bring out a more combative response, again, because civility has seen no positive results.
Just because you think the quotes describe him doesn’t mean it does, now does it.
Interesting. So tell us... what part of the Constitution should be suspended until that nightmare is cleaned up? More specifically.. which rights do you agree to surrender?
"Give me liberty or give me death." - Patrick Henry
"'I only regret, that I have but one life to lose for my country." - Nathan Hale
They did choose to live and die as lions and not sheep.
Your boneheaded attempt to use a Roman quote favored by Mussolini to make Trump incompatible with our Founding Fathers is a desperate stretch that pathetically fails on all points.
George Soros, Warren Buffett and Tom Steyer have also accomplished much in business. Would you believe they'd also make great presidents, based on that criteria?
One of my favorite sayings is, “Better is the enemy of good enough!”. The fact that is is attributed first to Vladimir Lenin, translated from Russian of course, doesn’t change its validity, or make me a Communist for liking it.
They are stock jobbers. They never DID anything.
Perhaps so.
But the basis of the comment was “accomplished much.”
“...which rights do you agree to surrender?”
What rights will remain after Amnesty and a One-Party DEMOCRAT RUN country?
No different than WW2...if we lost then, our Constitution wouldn’t be very useful, no different.
Good post, FRiend.
You didn’t answer my question. YOU said “we’ll get back to the Constitution after...”
So here it is again...
Which Constitutional rights do you agree to surrender?
You have my answer. Read it again and DEAL WITH IT.
I don’t know how you can say the two names in the same sentence. They are 180 degrees opposite.
