It has succeeded. I banished it to the NO-ZONE, after having enough of its inane nonsense.

I noticed you're not serious.![]()
Yes I did speculate. Why is that a problem for you? Was Trump confused or misinformed about the windmills?

You didn't speculate about the existence of "confusion". You speculated about how the alleged "confusion" supposedly arose.
You declaratively attributed the misinformation to "confusion" with no evidence that there was any confusion. That's a problem, in logical terms.
Is this really that difficult for you?
Wow. Is that "whataboutism"?
I really have some hope for him, but I'm beginning to think I shouldn't.
What is difficult is understanding why you have a problem with me speculating why they gave us misinformation and to where the confusion came from?
He did fire the U.S. pandemic response team. That's probably where the confusion came from.
The OP claimed that they deliberately lied. Where is the evidence of that? See? That's the OP speculating without evidence. I don't see you complaining about him speculating without evidence.
No. It's called a comparison to help you understand my simple point.
You repeatedly state that there was "confusion", which is in no way established as the cause of the misinformation. That is mischaracterization.
If you'd said "it was probably confusion, probably caused by his firing the pandemic team", that would have been a speculative statement, which is perfectly logical since it does not state a conclusion.
I'm not the OP, and who I choose to engage on an issue is my decision to make, not yours. My body, my choice.
I disagree. Shall I help you understand what "whataboutism" is defined as?
So you're hung on semantics?
Whataboutism is a form of deflection. But sure if it makes you happy to define it.
Was Trump confused or misinformed about the windmills?
As you as well.
I'm' "hung" on making rational, fact-based statements. Words have meaning.
My happiness isn't the issue, Mr. Lefty. "Whataboutism" is defined as a variant of the tu quoque logical fallacy that attempts to discredit an opponent's position by charging them with hypocrisy without directly refuting or disproving their argument.
Your question below appears to be an example of "whatboutism" as defined.
Never have, at least here.
Quote me stating that it was okay for me when Democrats lie. Did you even see my first post in this thread?
Nope. Trump DID try to cut budget to CDC. That's a fact. The confusion is him succeeding in doing that.

Everyone just lost a few IQ points looking at your post.

You don't get to speak for everyone. Are you embarrassed because I mocked your attempt to mislabel misinformation as "confusion"? Don't be. That's how you learn.

Arsecheese never gets anything right; the OP, knucklehead, states that the budgets were not cut. The Party of the Jackass are lying that they were.
I guess we cannot expect someone with an IQ below room temperature to comprehend anything past the lame, dumb, lie filled narratives he is fed by CNN.![]()
Neither do I here.
People often mistake my jokes and sarcasms for lying. Not my fault.
As you as well.
Of course. I thought my post was clear. I guess I should apologize for not making it any clearer.
I doubt they deliberately lied. Just misinformed or confused. And we all know how confused Biden can be. Not so sure about the other guy.
It appears that way to you. It's a comparison.
Was Biden confused when he misinformed the audience?
Was Trump confused when he misinformed the audience?
Or did both lie knowingly?
There is no deflection here. Only comparison.
Neither do I here.
