"If all you're doing is casting stones..uuuhhh......" lol.

It's almost as if before and after the Presidency, he wasn't such a great speaker, which he is so well known for, yet is praised for that by some.
Trump is himself for the most part, which obviously works based on how things are going, yet he's hated by some and should be more 'Presidential'.

I thought it was progressive to be all about being yourself. So why do progressives seem to hate when that actually happens?

>The first is basically Chinese, even to him.

Has absolutely nothing to do with what coherence is.

>"People who you are fighting..... may love their kids." lol WTF? Ya so what?

He's talking about how people can have good and bad qualities.  He's giving examples of how just because you're fighting with someone doesn't mean they're monsters.  

>"Yara goes to school with my daughter." lol WTF? Ya so what?

One random comment in the middle isn't the same as making an entire incoherent 2 minute interview question.  He still went back to what he was talking about before.

Obama is a decent public speaker.  Even at his worst moments during those speeches, nothing was as agonizing as Trump going off about something, something else, some third thing.

Accepting that people are going to be themselves doesn't mean we should deal with people being bigots or idiots.  

Honestly sometimes, I wonder if you live in a different world from me where words have very different meanings.  Where the study of logic looks basically inside out from this universe's point of view.  

I disagree. He's just filling in gaps with whatever because it would sound even worse if he filled it with the long uuuhhh's like he did at the end.

The problem is it's fairly clear that there is no line. Being yourself is a decision progressives make on the spot, sometimes as a group, which is ridiculous. You can't properly run a country by making the rules up as you go. At the very least you have to have laws and standards, and maybe then they can be adjusted if it makes sense. How are people like Weinstein and Epstein allowed to do what they did, and thrive, with so many progressive people knowing and turning a blind eye? The same people who go around, promoting the fight against it. Cancel culture seems to be pretty lopsided as well for some odd reason. But hey, Gunn got fired, for a while, then was allowed to come back, even though the non progressives aren't. Nothing to see here.

At least they say it coherently...
