There's precious little difference between what you (and others) and Trump do ---- vis-a-vis Christie. If Trump's comments are "unseemly" (as you're fond of saying), so, too, are yours. If his comments influence opinion, so, too, do yours. If ridicule is an acceptable tool for you to use, then the same acceptance should be extended to him.
So, @the OlLine Rebel , perhaps instead of waving the virtue scepter because you address a smaller audience from behind annominity, wouldn't the hypocrisy scepter be a better fit?
I already stated I admit to poking fun at people, mostly people I don’t like.
However, mine is private, and sort of conversational. Part of many conversing, reacting.
Trump is outwardly projecting. He is deliberately gathering people to him, and wants them all to listen to him in a big forum with him on stage. He wants MILLIONS to hear him. I do not intend to have even dozens hear me, though on the net I might garner that much. Otherwise this forum is like talking in your workplace.
Besides the points others made.
There is zero comparison.
I might be a sinner, but at least I admit it and am NOT much of an “influencer” like Trump.
