      Nothing in Walsh's character or history shows that his words alone are any more trustworthy than those of Trump. He's just looking for a new grift because the old one ran out. There is literally no point to replacing Trump with Walsh.

      I’m not in a position to evaluate Walsh’s character. But the key difference between him and Trump is that’s he apologized and disavowed his past words and behavior. Trump? Well, we know where he currently stands.

      Trump also spent the 2015-16 season disavowing stuff he said before. I'm in a position to evaluate Walsh's character because I have been following politics since 2010 (long before that, in fact).

      A lot can happen. As of now, he is not, so a primary challenge is a moral statement. Which is precisely why I have no intention of voting for Joe Walsh.

      Right, but I wasn’t talking about voting. In terms of policy I’m much closer to a Sanford or even Weld than I am to Walsh. I hope more people get in the race. My thread is about how we grapple with forgiveness and it’s dishonest to present it as otherwise.

      I'm not so easily taken in. Converts are welcome, but they need to prove themselves & don't get to be in charge.

      That’s exactly what I say in my thread. That I’m staying open to him potentially proving himself.

      Sure. But by deeds, not words. All he will do between now & 2020 is words.

      Right. That and the minor exercise of running for President against Trump.

      That's exactly the argument Trump made in 2016: "I'm saying things while running for office, believe me." It's right back where we started.

          Cool. Now can you please acknowledge that you miscaracterized my position in your original tweet? It’s the intellectually honest thing to do.
