You'll eventually learn that nobody here actually cares for reasoning and facts and will never change their minds as a result of such things if it comes from the other side.Major-Tom wrote:
Well, elaborate. I can see why you personally would disagree with her policies, but she's observably intelligent, poised and "normal." Compared to the batshit antics of many politicians of the last few decades, I'd call her sane.
Granted, I'm skeptical of her as a candidate, as I view her as perhaps overly opportunistic and flip-floppy, but certainly not insane.
I find a quite large number of her supported policies and positions to be quite the opposite of sane. Sure you could say she's more couth than Trump but I don't particularly care about that, I care more about the underlying ideas and motives.
Unless the policies proposed are nutjobby or zany, I myself stay away from describing an elected official as "sane or insane" based on policy differences. Granted, there is some nuance, a politician like Steve King for instance, I would say is bonkers from a policy standpoint.
As for "underlying ideas and motives," how do you mean? I mean, that's a little broad.
