      Not everyone is David Duke. Do you seriously think Joe Rogan is the equivalent of David Duke?

      I knew you'd ask that, and precisely why I picked it. But Trump didn't even tout that endorsement and you thought it was a bad idea. I just have a hard time figuring out your position here. I think mine is understandable and consistent. Yours is not.

      My view that David Duke is beyond the pale - and has been, notoriously so, for decades - and Joe Rogan is not is hardly inconsistent unless you are making a deliberate effort to not understand anything.

      Maybe for you as Dan McLaughlin, columnist. We may occupy the same space now, but before I did this I came from the campaign / staff world. How you think this is a good idea for a candidate is beyond me.

      You suggested, and feel free to elaborate, that Alex Jones is beyond the pale? Guess what? Trump promoted, elevated, and defended him. As did Rogan (he's not running, I know.)

      And here I am suggesting that using your campaign account to promote his endorsement is bad and you're basically saying "come on?" Really?

      If a Democrat touted an endorsement from a person who suggested that a Republican wouldn't make much money performing sexual acts for money because he or she was [interpret however you want] I doubt you'd be silent.

      I was under the impression that Bernie Sanders was a Democrat.

      Oh, so you get it now. That's good. And here I've heard all along us Never Trumpers were just making excuses for the liberals and not holding them to the same standards we'd want our candidates to be held to.

      If you are making a purely moral argument, go ahead. I understood your original Tweet to be making an argument of practical politics. Which is why I keep referencing the history of actual practical politics in this discussion.

          I am sticking to moral arguments. I don't buy into the Sohrabesque argument that endorsing immoral means or embracing immoral people are a means to an end. If Rogan endorsed Bernie and they ignored it, I wouldn't be having this discussion with you. That's my point.
