      I think he got a little overzealous.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          well, that explains a lot. (can you really not figure out that by using the definite article 'the', women was supposed to be singular 'woman' - as in your hatred for Warren)

          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

            What then makes you think I hate Trump?

              That you consistently refuse to ever interpret anything he says in the most charitable way you can; that you are ready to believe every negative report about him. 'Hate' might be too strong a word. But you are clearly biased against him.

              (Which doesn't make Trump good, or correct, or a great President etc etc. It just makes you not a credible source of information or opinion about him.)

              • Imagine this thread with 'Warren' changed to 'Trump', but all the background etc the same. All the posters who are presently defending 'Warren' and interpreting her statements in the most charitable way possible would be slamming 'Trump' - 'He's lied in the past, we know he's a liar', and the posters who are currently slamming 'Warren' would now be defending 'Trump'.


                Hmmm....



                **Think I'm wrong? Cite where you have defended Trump against an accusation AND where you have also defended Hilary / Warren / Biden / Sanders / Obama against an accusation.

                  And he did provide strong evidence of it, but your bias just won't allow you to see it, or admit to it.

                    I'm sorry but this is just flattening out two very unequal things. Trump lies repeatedly, constantly even, about just about anything one can imagine, small (poll numbers) and large (no business dealings with Russia). I honestly can't remember a time where Trump told a consistent story and people jumped on him with accusations of lying -- we have so many more concrete examples of deception, we're kinda overwhelmed here already.

                    It's just not true that you can take everybody here and imagine that if the names or parties were swapped, so would the opinions. Some things are true, some things are false, and some people actually do work to sort them out.

                          Right, the evidence for Russian collusion was so strong that Democrats have abandoned that narrative and moved on to trying to impeach Trump for an innocuous phonecall with the president of Ukraine.

                            Though President Trump continues to dismiss the idea that Russia tried to help his candidacy with its meddling, the panel's report reinforces previous conclusions by the intelligence community about Russian operations in 2016 — including that they were designed to harm Hillary Clinton's chances of success while boosting Mr. Trump's.

                              You're proving my point. Thanks.

                              I don't see you as being anywhere near as objective as you think you are.

                                She's a politician, she's probably lying or at least distorting the truth in her favour.
