      This is a perfect specimen of a particular style of progressive Twitter: *Ad hominem; *No evidence offered; *Unearned condescension; and *Offense taken that a person you disagree with could be seen as intelligent. https://twitter.com/thor_benson/status/1149346346484273152 …

      Dan McLaughlin Retweeted David French

      This thread, by contrast, is a good sample of what it looks like to argue with people who will never, ever, ever concede that any conservative or Republican is arguing in good faith or acts for the reasons they sayhttps://twitter.com/DavidAFrench/status/1152642656784343040 …

      Replying to @willwilkinson @brianbeutler
      David is saying two things: 1) Here is an actual reason why Republicans embraced Trump; 2) and they were wrong to do so. They shouldn’t have embraced him. I agree with David. Parts of the left have been intolerant. Many people embraced Trump because of it. They shouldn’t have.

      This thread is a textbook example of being completely unable to consider the actual thought process of people you disagree with, and instead reaching for the wildest possible interpretations of everythinghttps://twitter.com/nycsouthpaw/status/1223123354531426305 …

      They’d shut down our lab before we administered truth serum to every elected Republican, but how sure are you the majority wouldn’t say something like the old infamous NR editorial with a few words swapped around? https://adamgomez.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/whythesouthmustprevail-1957.pdf … https://twitter.com/LPDonovan/status/1223097254141218816 …

          is there another term for court-packing that doesn't sound as provocative for people who I think would be swayed on the normie merits but don't like being provocative

          Are you willing to apply this same judgement to those you wholeheartedly agree with, but who offer no sound or reasonable rationale for their statements?

          There is no rationale, which is why you're resorting to an ad hominem attack.

          We can’t consider it because the argument is illogical. Alexander said he believed Trump did exactly what the House Impeached him for. He then says it’s not impeachable but gives no justification for why not. What are we supposed to consider then?
