49. Well then you have a problem with me

Apr 2020

because the enemy of my enemy is not necessarily my friend.

Trump is indeed my enemy and I'm willing to make temporary alliances to get rid of his monstrosity.

But this brings up a more general question in my own mind as I think about the ramifications of this. It seems to me that many on this site have MORE TROUBLE WITH THE LEFT WING OF OUR OWN PARTY than with the "Never Trumper" faction. This worries me.

Anyway, never mind. I can see that my open discussion style doesn't really work well with some here. So whatever, I really just want to have some friends that share some common values but I'm not worried about a causal comment that I don't like Never Trumpers because well, honestly, I don't.

Unless we can now agree to disagree I will have no choice but to block you. I'm hoping I don't have to do that.
