We discussed this on this board the entire republican primary. The “Trump Effect” has never made any sense. Instead of just burying him with what he says, the media always goes into some ridiculous hyperbole that no one can take seriously. Once people stop taking the hyperbole seriously, they stop taking the actual bad thing Trump said seriously as well. It is the strangest damn thing, and I have no answer for it. I also cannot figure out why those that hate Trump cannot figure this out other than they truly believe their hyperbolic delusions.
They may truly believe their delusions. Much to my suprise, I did have an otherwise reasonable anti-Trump friend tell me two days ago that Trump was going to start handing Americans over to Putin to go to Siberian gulags. I could only respond “You sound like you are saying that the russians are putting flouride in our water to corrupt our precious bodily fluids.”
On another note, I still cannot belive you think there would be a conventional war with Russia and not a nuclear holocaust. There is no need to rehash it, but it floors me about as much as I assume my Nikki Haley opinions floor you.
