    Because you addressed people in the plural in the thread I started. You said Trump haters needed counseling during your tantrum that wasn't addressed to anybody I guess?

    Once again you display a remarkable lack of comprehension. I am one of the biggest critics President Trump has. I have, on more than one occasion, called him a Buffoon.

    I have no problem with criticizing him when he does something worthy of criticism. But to criticize him for something that has been going on for 40 years is indicative, to me, of a serious obsession.

    But the Trump haters will hate anyone who does not walk in lock-step with their irrational opinions.

    1. I did not throw a tantrum. Don't make slanderous accusations.

    2. Do you understand the difference between a specific statement and a general statement?

    I could so destroy your consistently flawed logic, I am certain we were in a cold war with them for a very long time. I am certain an ally or two were invaded under a pervious regime and nothing was done about it. I am certain Iran took a ship hostage and lied about where they did it and nothing was done. Slow it down, he's been in office for four weeks, an entire shadow government is fighting him and I think he's doing aright. But it does not matter that he was rightfully elected, you don't like it.

    Don't act as if he's making the Russians act bold, you and your liberal friends are they ones lying about the Russians all the time.

    I mean the Chinese have been stealing date and hacking us non-stop for years and we pretend the Russians are bad.

    So...a person who holds a differing opinion than that of Trump or Trump supporters are "irrational haters".

    WE GET IT.

    Slanderous accusations like suggesting people need counseling or hate Trump in a thread where none of those comments were necessary? Looks like a tantrum to me.

    For your second point I know what a general statement is just not how it applied to this thread. Enlighten me perhaps?

    Sorry, thought that was an apt term for your concerns in post #31.

    Seemed quicker than typing out slander and hate and unnecessary comments.

    But in hindsight it wasn't, apparently. :D

    No. I hold differing opinions from President Trump and many, if not most, of his supporters.

    The irrational haters are those who hate irrationally, incapable of distinguishing, or admitting to the facts.

    Obviously, you don't.

    Even the far left wing is starting to wake up.

    Here is an excellent example:

    As you can clearly see from reading the above thread, I didn't call anyone in the thread names. I suggested the irrational Trump haters were in need of counseling.

    If you applied that to yourself, that is your problem, not mine. I was referring to irrational Trump haters. After all, you know yourself better than I know you. You must have had a reason for applying it to yourself.

    Looks like you may have some sort of discernment disorder to me.
    It is rather simple. I did not call anyone in the thread names nor did I address my comments to any persons specifically. Therefore that is an example of a general statement addressed only toward Trump haters.

    You, on the other hand, addressed your name calling/accusation directly at me. which is an example of a specific statement.

    Understand now?

    Please do. I think that you made an overstatement.

    Nope. More likely an understatement. I should have included some adjectives and adverbs. :)
