    I am so far past the point of giving a fuck about arguments that end with “and the Republicans will say…”

      I’m right there with you. I don’t say these things in consideration of them, but as a calculated political strategy.

        I’m saying that even in what is intended to be a calculated political strategy, it amounts to jumping at shadows.

        Republicans are not bound by truth or logic or even evidence in what they say.

        Worry about how the people you are trying to reach will react to your statement rather than letting the Marjorie Taylor-Greenes of the world pre-censor you.
