We have to be nice to Trump to avoid war, says the Nation

[Downtown Hound]

12. Such a bullshit choice. Impeachment equals war??? I don't think so.

I've noticed that Trump supporters do this a lot. They present two choices at extreme opposite ends and try and make it seem like they are the only two out there, and if you are for or against one then you are for or against the other. It's an intellectually dishonest trap that, unfortunately, they get away with far too often.

We can impeach Trump, impose greater sanctions on Russia, do to Russia what they're doing to us, by which I mean covertly support dissident elements in the country in an attempt to undermine Putin's regime, and still avoid war. And anyone who tells you differently is, quite simply, lying.

As for The Nation printing this drivel, it's what I've come to expect from them and one of the reasons I quit reading it over a decade ago.
