The right's protests were not like the left's. Instead of denying that reality, why not just admit it and argue their reaction was legitimate regardle...
Oh, he's offensive and obnoxious and not terribly temperate. He'd make a terrible dinner guest, and it's likely we'd hate each other. Hillary wouldn't...
Sure, maybe that's the reason, I don't know. I'm just pointing out a difference in reaction. It could be for all sorts of reasons, but the ones you li...
I'm just commenting on an empirical question, which is whether the right protests like the left. It seems clear they don't. You might get a small grou...
Conservatives support less government and greater self-sufficiency, so it would be inconsistent to ask the same government for help that you want out ...
So, to the hypothetical, what would the right have done had Hillary won, why not just look at what they did when Obama won. Not a lot. And, yes, Obama...
Well, I didn't comment on anything other than the single issue regarding his comments about accepting the election results. Throwing the rest in has n...
Actually, it's apples to oranges. Comparing a largely homogenous small nation with a massive and diverse country makes little sense. Maybe compare The...
Yes. Conservatives don't protest. They just don't take buses and converge on DC. Why would a group opposed to government flock to the government for h...
I do appreciate the national comparisons, but if you're really interested in a "best of," I have conducted my own study. Here are the results: Best co...
My problem with those studies is that there is greater quality of life disparity in the U.S. than in most Western (and especially in north European) c...
Obviously I'm biased, but I would suspect you'd have a higher standard of living, meaning a larger house, a nicer car, more and varied employment oppo...
They do, and that's why they choose people who they expect will maintain a particular ideology, but there are plenty of examples where they've been di...
Should the question be what the Constitution says, then it seems inevitable that the specific terms of the document be referenced. I obviously see not...
I know we could go round and round forever on this, but I can tell you that I sincerely don't believe Trump is less moral than Clinton, and I have lit...
And yet throughout Europe, Prime Ministers are elected by representatives who form alliances with other parties, many of whom share little in common w...
The "I think the voters got bad information when they voted" isn't a ground for overturning an election or even questioning its legitimacy. Free speec...
You know of no other way of interpreting what he said other than by inserting the critical logical qualifier "only" that he never said? That is a huge...
You've misquoted him by adding in the word "only." He didn't say that. He said he'd accept the results if he won, which doesn't mean he won't accept t...
I don't oppose opposition. My opposition was to the efforts to delegitimize. To the extent some may consider it a legitimate tactic, I don't, so those...
I did read it, and the suggestion from the articles I read was that it was understood that the $200,000+ (and not the $300,000+) would eventually find...
This is a silly equivocation fallacy that you're now trying to take seriously. What I said is that people protested under the banner of this being an ...
I don't know what quote your referencing, but it stands to reason that he wouldn't protest an election that he won. Generally speaking, you don't see ...
Your cite from March 25, 2015 references a blog that was shown "mostly false." The Washington Times reported on July 12, 2016 that a Senate investigat...
No, the situation is directly equivalent. Trump was generally asked if he would accept the election results, and he said he had to wait and see. The o...
Midnight beans on toast isn't something you'd eat in America. In America we eat gruel and boiled dandelions on crackers we make by burning a corn meal...
I heard that at Disney, they don't hire workers, but they hire actors. So, if you were assigned the job of sweeping the street, you would wear the clo...
They will have a choice, and they'll choose not to impeach, similar to what happened to Bill Clinton, where only the Republicans found anything object...
What I think is twofold: (1) the Republicans will not impeach their own president and commit political suicide and turn the government over to the lef...
I think the election was valid even if Russia's hacking into emails affected it, largely because they didn't reveal anything that wasn't true. Clinton...
No, my first claim wasn't a non sequiter (I was responding specifically to the post regarding the possibility of impeachment), my second was not basel...
I believe the election was valid and that the Dem's reaction is hypocritical in light of their objection to Trump's comments that he reserved the righ...
I'm not defending Trump. I just said a Trump impeachment is a ridiculous suggestion, like the Republican House is going to waste their time while they...
Although I disagree with him ideologically on just about everything, I think it's reasonable to turn to a Jewish man for answers and I understand your...
The Sanders quote is ironic. The liberals, not the right, have denigrated the electoral process itself by openly proclaiming Trump's election invalid....
You can Google "bias at cbo" as well as I can for historical claims of bias by both parties. Of course, but he didn't create this problem. He simply i...
