That would split the MAGA vote away from the GOP. For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

By far not for the first time, your are completely wrong. I am not afraid of physical confrontation. I don't think I am afraid of anything. Wary and watchful, yes, but afraid, no. I avoid physical confrontation primarily because it's degrading, I don't want anything to do with those who think that an argument can be won with violence. I left that all behind when I left school. I split a boy's nose very badly when in a boxing match and vowed never to put myself in that situation again. It upset me greatly. There were many bullies at my school who terrorised others who were brighter than them, simply because they could. That's no way to behave. So I don't behave like that. I walk away. If I am with someone I assess their mood and likely reaction before I speak. I can be gentle and diplomatic when needed, emphasising the positive and taking the listener with me. Corresponding online doesn't require that, so I can be more forthright when necessary. I suspect you only have one operating mode. Some of us are more nuanced than that! I expect the same old bs in return. I could write it myself you are so predictable.
