hyperbolic "dictator" characterizations.
Right, January 6th was just hyperbole

Another great example. A few hundred unarmed people vs the million well-armed hydra of the government. Only in the movies kids.

And again, Christians, get out and vote just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what, it’ll be fixed. It’ll be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore. My beautiful Christians, I love you Christians. I’m a Christian. I love you. Get out, you got to get out and vote. In four years you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to get out and vote.”

You’ve got to admit this was a weird statement. DonOld Trump is weird. Just calling them My beautiful Christians is weird.

Is it weird to live all alone and never had a girlfriend?

YES IT IS, LOL

You could say life all alone is a hydra

random YouTube video without context.  Please watch because I spend a lot of time searching for clips that say what I can’t articulate with my own words.
It’s a hydra for me.

Could this be? A reasonable request in search of common ground? Excuse me while I catch my breath for a moment… *inhale, exhale… ahhh…*

Why, yes. In fact, I mentioned this in my first post to this thread, post #6:


That said, I don’t get his exhortation to Christians to vote “just this once,” as if Christians are stereotypically reluctant to vote (?)
To which Wylted speculated that he was speaking to the Amish in PA, but this Believers Summit actually occurred in the great state of Florida, so that doesn’t explain it…

Again, weird. You are a weird, lonely guy.

No wife. No kids. You really shouldn’t even be allowed to vote. That’s what J D Vance says.

And… ya ruined the moment… *sigh*

Yes. “Could this be?” is a standalone question signaling amazement at something seemingly too good to be true. Roughly, it means “Could this (whatever the circumstance or event, like the Cubs winning the World Series) be (as in be real, true, actually happening)?”

It’s just basic English. (Meaning you should already know this if English is your primary language)

For some people, common ground can't be found.

Yep… but hope springs eternal. Hopefully, he doesn’t go after me for that turn of phrase, too. Yeesh…

No, it doesn’t work. It’s an awkward sentence.

One of the symptoms of TDS is an inability to discern when Trump is being facetious. That said, I don’t get his exhortation to Christians to vote “just this once,” as if Christians are stereotypically reluctant to vote (?)

Still no idea what point you are trying to make

Who do you think might be making a reasonable request in search of common ground? Trump? Myself?

Yourself, Captain. Me posting in response to you didn’t make that bloody obvious?

And I took it out for a reason
Ah, so you were incorrect when you claimed this

For easy reference here they both are in their entirety:
Were you intentionally lying, or no?
Entirety, as in there was nothing else relevant that was left out. Normally the excuse is that the words posted are cherry picked out of a greater point. There was no greater point here, that was your whole quote minus the one part I removed because it was irrelevant and because taking out that irrelevant piece put into stark clarity that both of our statements were exactly the same.

Do you have anything to say of substance, or are these silly little technical arguments all you got left?
