The thing is that response is bullshit. He intended it to be a political statement he trashed Democrats to gain favor with Republicans. He hit on a common right wing talking point ans when callee out he tried to pass it off as just fact. He couldn’t defend his statement when people came with a comparison of the facts.

Now he’s doing the worst thing, trying to play both sides. Oh you lean left on some issues and right on some issues. I’d be pretty fucking careful saying I lean right on some issues considering how extreme the American right is. In the current political landscape the middle ground is not possible. You cannot have consistent morals and be in the middle.

This is the same kind of horseshit opinion that led to the logic of “we don’t negotiate with terrorists.”

There is nothing wrong with trying to find common ground with people you disagree with. Life is not a zero sum game, and I’m sick and tired of all this needless and divisive outrage. Ya’ll need to chill the fuck out and quit attacking everyone that is less than perfect from your perspective.

Cool, can you explain to us how your centrist approach would work in practice? Should Trump only remove some rights from trans people? Only deport 500,000 immigrants instead of one million?
