And yet the other side still hasn’t been able to put fort a better candidate. Astounding.

What are you talking about? Hillary Rodham Clinton was a better candidate.

If that's true then you need better humans who would have voted for that better candidate. Your issue isn't with Trump, it's with all the other humans.

Yo don't get to turn the political world upside down and get elected with a skeleton crew if you are an idiot.

[xenon]

He has been elected, ergo any idiotic behavior he exhibits must be classified as non-idiotic behavior.

[Mik]

You miss my point entirely. I was addressing calling the man an idiot, which he clearly is not. Any individual act can be assessed on its own merits.

Well that’s a philosophical question. How many individual acts of idiocy does a person have to commit before they’re can be labeled an idiot wholesale?

Now you’re being idiotic.

Well, I called Hillary "jiggly."
So, as they say in the old country, before criticizing Mark I need to sweep under my own porch.
But she is. But only when she cackles, then she's jiggly. Can't help it, can't stand her.

I may have seen or heard Mr. Trump act like an idiot, but I can't remember it. I would be very surprised, he is not an idiot.

I think this is a word use problem. Jerk, might work if you feel that way or impolite but not idiot.

He just isn't an idiot. Check your word use.

[xenon]

@Mik Presidents are elected based on showmanship, charisma, storytelling ability, among others. He’s got talents there.

Governing is based on other traits.

Yes he needed certain talents to get elected - but he can prove himself an idiot on dimensions on display when you’re in the job.

@Copper if you tweet about your corona virus tv ratings, not only are you an idiot, but that fits my definition of a fucking tone deaf moron.

But hey - it’s subjective.

[Mik]

You are objectively wrong, Xenon. It is only your desire to use that term because of your biases.

OK, yes this is a word use problem.

That post actually introduces several other problems with the words used.

Subjective really isn't the right word either.

[Mik]

Again, you miss the point entirely.

[xenon]

@Mik yeah, I missed your objective criteria on idiot classification and nomenclature.

[Doctor Phibes]

How about douchebag? Can we at least agree on that?

[Mik]

Ok, you're a douchebag.

[Doctor Phibes]

I'm only a Class C, Category 3.1 douchebag based on objective and rigorous testing.

He has the poverty of spirit.
So sad.

No, what's sad, is if we actually listened to you. Carry on...
