    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?

          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.

              @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.

                  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.
