    Whereas Trump and his supporters absolutely LOVE expanding eminent domain.

    So you mean take it from its rightful owners and give it to someone else? Sounds a little bit like control there

    Except it literally happened. Trump publicly supported expanding eminent domain during the debates. And they were 100% REQUIRED for his braindead wall toy.

    So what do you have to say when Biden evidently is a big fan of it? He wants to take ranchers land to build the border wall and people's land to build pipelines.

    It was his WH.

    Obama personally went even further:

    “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said at a Philadelphia fundraiser.

    I say you are projecting your own hypocrisy onto me. But, hey, if you actually respond to what I actually said without hiding behind a flimsy wall of whataboutism, I will respond in kind and address your concerns.

    Trump is the one who has repeatedly talked about hitting back.

    That and retribution, and personal revenge talking.

    He's either talking figuratively (which he was) or you object to using a firearm in self-defense against a knife attack (which you don't).

    That's a pretty lame non-response you got there.

    Once again we can see your clear double standards at play and then you have the nerve to turn around and accuse others of hypocrisy

    I responded in kind. If you want a better response, then provide one yourself first. All you are doing is projecting your double standards onto others. Or do you now object to Trump's love affair with eminent domain?

    I will answer your elements after you address the ones I brought up to you first. We both know why you refuse and why you are hiding behind whataboutism.

    Another Inconvenient Truth: A political faction ahead leading into an election will not stage riots let alone start a "civil war".

    You're the one that made the assortation to begin with.

    I'm simply pointing out that the use of imminent domain is nothing unusual.

    If you don't like it being pointed out....shrug.

    Sounds like you're just sore that I pulled the rug out from under your attempt to pretend it was something unusual to the Trump administration

    No. I mentioned Trump's love of eminent domain, since Trump supporters were pretending to care about private property rights. You made the association with Biden . . . because you couldn't actually respond. Sounds like you are just sore that I pointed out your double standard and don't like facts. *Shrug* Again: I'm willing to address your argument if you are willing to finally, honestly, for the first time, honestly address the one you were "responding". I'm no longer playing the game where right wingers hide like this and demand responses but are unable/unwilling to provide their own.

    Better luck next time. Not my fault you tried to pretend like it was unique to his administration and failed in doing so.

    Anyhow, c minus for effort.... Onward to your next fallacy

    Never said it was unique. In fact, I was criticizing the argument that it was. Literacy 101. And you can grade effort when you provide some of your own. Which you refuse to do. Or hide behind more whataboutism and straw men. It's the only game you play these days.
