You gather wrongly.
Donald Trump is a liberal in that he supports leftist policies and leftist candidates. You can continue trying to spin that but you can't change it and I will no longer waste any more of my time entertaining your denials. Bye.
Bye! (And good riddance: I do not regard you as a good-faith collaborator on these questions.)
It is insufferable to me that you have a mania for accusing me of perpetrating a "ruse," of being some kind of a sophist, rather than a seeker of the truth of reality, regarding the most critical, existential problems now facing our nation.
Just in case you have never heard of what a sophist is: You have to go back to another root of the American constitutional order, besides Christianity. And that would be classical philosophy.
I am a long-time student of Plato. He detested sophists. They made their living out of promulgating mere opinion, or doxa.
Doxa is the polar opposite of Aletheia logos, which translates as "likely story." The "logos" part here refers to Truth; the "aletheia" part refers to the divine origin of Truth which we humans never see completely, in full, because the Source of Truth is utterly beyond or outside of the creation and thus outside of human grasp. Which is why it cannot ever be a state of complete knowledge, but only the telling of the "likely story." Truth is divine; doxa is purely human, and usually transgresses against the very idea of the divine because its tendency is ever to "make man the measure."
So put that in your pipe and smoke it!
