What I'm trying to figure out is why you spend so much time fighting this?


I agree he didn't say to inject bleach, though equating a liquid disinfectant with bleach isn't exactly a mortal sin. In a generous reading of his word salad you can say that he was referring to injecting UV light based on his garbled understanding of the Cedars research, rather than injecting disinfectant. Perhaps that makes him seem a bit less stupid, but he sure isn't impressing me with his scientific understanding no matter how you interpret his speech. The same goes for the word salad he through up with his "fine people on both sides" speech. He wasn't exactly showing off his moral compass in my mind, even if he wasn't calling Nazis fine people. And of course just because Trump didn't commit criminal collusion with Russia in no way makes me feel better about the many ways that he is financially tied to them or what he actually did during the 2016 election or while he was President. But it's great to knock those straw men down over and over again.

I'm more interested in why you feel that this is the hill to fight on. I realize you've probably been doing battle with Wax, RQ, and others for a lot longer than I've been on this board and that they can treat you pretty awful at times. But you've staked out a position where because lefties on this board say stupid crap and call you names that you feel obliged to defend Trump and the right on everything. Why? I'm all for fact checking and I probably talk about truth as much as anybody on the board, but you're left grasping for pretty sad examples of Trump's being a victim of the left so that you can claim the left are hypocrites on this stuff.
