>>That's a wonderful example of Roy Cohn's 4th precept - there must be an "other"

Trying to "other" me by accusing me of Othering?

Meanwhile all those othered by the likes of Rachel Maddow as "deplorable" or "racist" or Covington schoolboy or MAGA assaulter of Jussie Smollett, might agree with you that the othering tactic is dangerous.

>>Do you really think that Rachel Maddow or - whoever - is a danger to anyone except the poor schlubs who watch her?

Every time your "schlubs" decide to act out the fantasy and (for example) try to assassinate Rebublican senators playing basketball, of course it's dangerous. Even hinting that somebody is a Nazi or even just an enabler is dangerous in this "punch a nazi" era when historical predictions about fascism coming to the US calling itself anti-fascism, have come true.

>>Of course the real purpose of the "other" is to divert attention from things like having government people use Trump facilities to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.

As long as the price is comparable, why shouldn't they stay at a Trump property that's in the business of renting space to all-comers. I haven't investigated, but perhaps it's balanced out by other government people who refuse to stay at his properties out of spite.

>>I criticized Clinton for renting out the Lincoln Bedroom - Trump could give Clinton sleaze lessons.

If Trump ever is disgusting enough to rent out the Lincoln bedroom, let me know. Not holding my breath. But if people choose to stay at his properties which he insists isn't at his direction or with his knowledge? What do you suppose he's meant to do?

When you voted for Trump, you always said you had to hold your nose but you saw the alternative as worse. Surely you remember why HRC was the candidate after Bernie was shafted by the DNC and HRC campaign, which we only knew because a henchman's email was hacked? Ditto the DNC operative who betrayed the electorate by sneaking debate questions to HRC; revealed the same way. Ditto the vicious "pee pee dossier" political hit on Trump. These people know no bounds in pursuit of power, so how confident can you be this time that it's all above board and the best candidate will win?
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
