    You're teasing, right?
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      If nothing else it's amusing trying to figure out when you'll finally figure out you've hitched your wagon to a complete loon.

      The really scary part is that loon has his hands on the most powerful weapons and military in the world.

      I really, really wish you wouldn't take every opportunity to confirm my impression of you. I'll charitably assume that you somehow truly think I've "hitched my wagon" to Trump, but that belief is false. Kindly acknowledge that.

        My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

        If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

        This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

          That would be sarcasm. Given that is THE primary form of response here, im not sure why I needed to tell you that .

            Jim,

            Could you PLEASE come up with a way to let the reader know when you're on a "everybody is against me" rant and truly upset, as opposed to "teasing" --- because, quite honestly, I think we're all having a hard time discerning your state of mind at the time you are posting.

            Maybe sarcasm tags!!!!

              When you pitch a "everybody is against me" rant -- is THAT sarcasm?

                  Hey, if you can claim i have TDS as an excuse to dismiss every comment I make, then I see no obligation whatsoever to acknowledge any subtle distinction you find offensive in how you qualify your support for Trump.

                  Truce? Or no Truce, it's Your call.

                    When several people decide they need their ODS insult fix for the day you will probably need to anticipate that my posts are likely to include teasing, insults, or sarcasm as I respond. But likely more toned down than any of the rest of you could manage under similar circumstances

                      I don't claim that you have TDS as an excuse to dismiss every comment you make. Dismissing every comment someone makes without evaluating it on its face would be stupid and uncharitable.

                      The second half of your proffer appears to be your idea of a subtle attempt at insult - ironic, given the charge you made last night in our other current conversation.

                      I'm all for a truce. All I ask is that you be more charitable in your dealings with me.

                        My intent is to never insult or reply harshly to a person that did not first do the same to me at least twice in a row. Sometimes if several people pile on at once or the person has several attacks in one post the twice in a row might get lost. But, If I violate that, feel free to call me on it

                          Point of demi's is, no retweet of Trump saying 'Trump is the messiah'. Obvious lie, now you just retreat to 'saying he was like a jewish messiah'. But was actually 'admired him so greatly that it was as though Trump were the King of Israel'.
