Indeed, as I said:Shofercia wrote:Attempted Socialism wrote:There's been no Trump hate. There's been a dignified evaluation of Trump, on the merits, which was more than he deserved after we had seen him during the election.
Meanwhile, the GOP did think Obama was literally the Anti-Christ:

The politics of passing a bill and overriding a veto are different, as you can see from other times bipartisan bills have been vetoed. Especially with the GOP following their President, it's to be expected that they flip the second he's against (As they've done so many times before). The Democrats are, for once, entirely innocent, as Trump himself noted in a rare, lucid moment with Pelosi and Schumer.
There's been no Trump hate?
It's kind of like saying the Allies "hated" Hitler in 1945. Saying true things about Trump isn't hate, it's neutrality.There's been a dignified evaluation of Trump, on the merits, which was more than he deserved after we had seen him during the election.
I didn't say that at all, but it's a nice strawman. They're blameless, or innocent, in the Trump Shutdown.Also, Obama is way off topic, and I'm not a member of GOP, so I see no reason to engage in that beloved tantrum of yours. And yes, the Democrats are just innocent lambs, out to be slaughtered by evil Trump.
Indeed not (Even if it's an image made and promoted by e.g. Democrats and not something Trump-supporters made up).Yeah, no Trump hate here at all:
Hate would have been to do what the Republicans did after 2010, and hold the government hostage several times to defund passed laws, where no bills were passed at all. The Democrats have gone very far to accomodate Trump policies, and have compromised even in the bipartisan bill that Trump threatened to veto, setting this mess in motion.
Edit:
I'm not a resident of the US, or member of any US party, and if I were, I wouldn't be a member of a centre-right party like the Democrats.Shofercia wrote:But when we get members of the other party trying to portray the Democrats as innocent lambs, (rather than the party that took his bait and went right into the shutdown,) just to be slaughtered by evil president, I just can't help but laugh. That said, I completely agree with your post.
I like your strawmen, they're cute.
