Re: Trump 2016

"You called me a neo-con, which I doubt you know the meaning of the term; you insinuated I'm a liberal and twisted my words to claim I was posting about all Trump supporters."

You are using the same tactics in attacking Trump and his supporters that liberals have used for years to attack conservatives.

Also, there you go again with the belittling comments.

nd - I did not claim you were being a race baiter. Another poster did.
I claimed he was a race baiter and stand by the comment.

Didn't use the exact words, but it's implied.

And you're wrong. But that's nothing new for you.

What, stating you don't know the meaning of a word is belittling? You might want to join Esaias in his safe space and click ignore if simply stating that belittles you.



Good grief.

You're the one calling names and insinuating I'm race baiting. I should be the one offended, not you.

But seriously, you should look up the meaning of the word. Doesn't apply.

Neoconservatives:

"""born in the United States during the 1960s among Democrats who became disenchanted with the party's domestic and especially foreign policy."""

"""During the early 1970s, Socialist..Michael Harrington..was one of the first to use "neoconservative" in its modern meaning. He characterized neoconservatives as former leftists..- whom he derided as "socialists for Nixon"..- who had become more conservative.[12]..These people tended to remain endorsers of..social democracy, but distinguished themselves by allying with the Nixon administration with respect to foreign policy, especially by their endorsement of the Vietnam War and opposition to the USSR. They still endorsed the..welfare state, but not necessarily in its contemporary form."""

"""Irving Kristol remarked that a neoconservative is a "liberal mugged by reality", one who became more conservative after seeing the results of liberal policies."""

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoconservatism

And now you know....the meaning of the word "neo-con."

Doesn't apply to me, but good try.

Re: Trump 2016

nd - guess you missed this one.

"Definition of neoconservative
1: a former liberal espousing political conservatism

2: a conservative who advocates the assertive promotion of democracy and United States national interest in international affairs including through military means

Sounds like #2 applies.

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dicti...eoconservative

AND you were using the liberal tactic of calling your opposition racist.
Not sure if that is race baiting, but it is a common liberal tactic.

Here's another definition:

A political philosophy developed in the 1970s and 1980s, advocating the active use of government power in pursuit of conservative domestic and foreign policies.

Nope, nice try. I do NOT support the US using its military to overthrow other governments in a fruitless effort to spread Democracy.

Glad you actually looked up the meaning though since you didn't know what it meant.

Also, you're still being dishonest about what I posted. I did not post that Trump is racist, nor that all his supporters are. It is a simple fact that many people who support him are.

Amazing how you can read my mind...
Now, let's get to your definition of many.
10%, 20%, 75%?
When I read "many" it means "most" or "the majority".
Maybe you had a different meaning and if so what is it?

Not most or majority. Different amounts. How can many be the same as most or majority. Makes no sense.

Here's an example hopefully will help:
Out of 100
Majority = 75+
Most = 50+
Many = 20+
