I don't know. I see things differently.
That you may see things differently than me or any of us is just fine. You have always been a bit to the left of me in your political views (that is not a critical judgment on my part, and perhaps even one that is wrong). I respect that. When you are thoughtful and expressive, you make a valuable counterpoint to many of us.
But that was not the point of my question, "What happened to you?" The premise of that question is/was - I seem to remember you when you would not have responded to a fairly expressed question or viewpoint with,
"So you vote circle-jerk Pro-MAGA bubble too?"As for what happened to me? Well... while I remain critical of the President at times, I realize that he is the last line of defense to preserve what I hold dear. Simple and without elaboration. Others have ably stated those reasons. I came to this with a simple realization framed in a question: If not him, who? Who?
We are in unprecedented times in many respects. Perilous. It is interesting that those most critical of the President's response to this virus threat are the very same people who monumentally distracted him and his administration with a faux impeachment charade while the threat grew. What is their culpability?
Long gone are my days of expressing my political views in paragraphs. But, if you fairly state your opinion to me, I will not respond in the manner referenced above.
