Not the same, dude. Not by a long shot. First of all, not everyone who disagrees with him is a hater, so I assume you're talking about a specific group. So the haterz had a problem with him abusing his power against Clinton if he were to be elected president. They now stress to the people who voted him that he's not keeping his promise. That's not a point against him, but against his voters. So, no. If he does, yes he is damned. If he doesn't, he isn't. It's the reason that people who voted for him that comes into question. |
I don't see how saying he's lying is not a point against him. Anyway, here, the point is "you should not have voted for him", wether he does the thing, or he does not do it, and wether you accept or not that he does do it... or does not do it. And that is totally similar to what trump fanboys do.
Regarding abusing power, I'm fully on the side of Giuliani when he says "there is a tradition of not going after your opponent in America, but there is also a tradition of equal Justice under the law". Just for Bill Clinton meeting privately an attorney General there is no equal justice. Trump litteraly "putting her in jail" would be abusing his power, but giving it a shot outside the influences there were, it is not. I value Justice more than tradition. Abusing his power would be to go after Obama or any sane Democrat or Republican. Not going after Clinton is like saying "being the not elected candidate is equivalent to a total immunity" from my point of view.
