I have said several times, come on over to our side (the side that is anti-Trump, not Democrat or left). I have said we will welcome you and not ridicule you.
And that's what upsets people that don't see the world like you.
The general point being, "being right" becomes a polemic, instead of an agreed upon observation. World peace still isn't going to happen because racists like Trump will still promote racism. But, a sensitivity to how you treat "wrong" and "right" should improve consensus and moderate views.
I'll take my Nobel Prize now.
I have never said such a thing about either President Bush or any other political figure ever, just this President, because he is that dangerous and that corrupt. There is no opinion on that matter. Again, somethings are inherently true, and this is one of those things...and they don't come along very often.
I also reject that that my approach is polemical at all. I have no agenda other than to sincerely welcome others who are looking for a way to exit the Trump side. My offer, in fact, is one that is void of ridicule when the other side told me that I will be ridiculed forever if I am proven wrong (I won't be). Being a Trump supporter at this stage does not constitute a moderate view.
Your "world peace" sentence doesn't belong in the rest of your post as it is disconnected from the rest of what you said and has nothing to do with anything I've said. BUT, I will comment on it.
World peace may never happen, but we should strive for it, AND when we have leaders in place who threaten that goal, we need to call them out. Trump's racism is awful for a person and especially awful for the President of the United States, but it is not his biggest negative.
