    Here is the tweet

    I know exactly what you’re referring to.

    if that’s not the most flagrant Trump bootlicking, I don’t know what is

    I agree, you don’t know what is. Agreeing with a single decision someone makes is not an endorsement. But that’s exactly the kind of irrational dichotomic reaction I expect from society these days.

    And here is the backpedal

    I don’t see anything here that could be construed as backpedaling. If he were smart he would have, but if anything, he doubled down several times.

    I believe what I read.

    You didn’t read that, you made it up.

      It’s kind of stupid to say that Republicans aren’t the party of big business anymore. Both parties are parties of big business.

        If you want to claim it was a stupid thing to say, I will agree with you 100%. If you want to claim that it was a tacit endorsement specifically of Trump, you are just wrong and spreading disinformation.

          I’ll sometimes agree with stuff Trump does too, like appointing Tulsi Gabbard, but I’m not going to say this means Republicans have become the party of anti war lol
