That video won't play for me. The trump looking over at Melania voting is from different angles in multiple places.

Didn't Trump's son take a voting selfie in a state where it is illegal? Just sayin.

Also, Trump looked over Melania's shoulder while she voted. A NO-NO .

photoshops and derogatory innuendo

NO, true.

Ahh Reldra, I know everyone needs to believe in something, but eventually we all must see the light.

What will it take to get you to stop bashing only the right?

Don't you see BOTH sides are equally as bad?

For every negative thread about the Left, you have to point to the right. Is this your way of keeping your head in the sand?

It really is unbecoming of an intelligent person to ignore 1/2 of an issue, and only focus on one side.

I am a liberal. What do you expect me to bash? However, looking at my posts, I often compliment right wing people on their posts.

Unbecoming? I have a set of ideals. My head is not in the sand, that is insulting.

Just because I don;t follow the "both are crap" train doesn't make me unintelligent. I have my own mind.

The liberal status quo that does # all for anybody other than those at the top? Oh, and the occasional hook up for those at the bottom so they keep those at the top up there at the top.

That'd be a start. Ignoring the cracks in one's own house while ranting about the ones in your neighbor's house does tend to make one seem unintelligent.

Compliments that sound like, paraphrasing, "that was well written. you're wrong, but you wrote your wrongness well" don't really count as compliments for most folks.

I don't think he looked at it long enough to tell anything.
Half second glimpses aren't exactly equivalent to staring.

Just my guesstimate.

You have a right to know the truth Reldra!

Tu quoque (/tuːˈkwoʊkwiː/;[1] Latin for, "you also") or the appeal to hypocrisy is an informal logical fallacy that intends to discredit the validity of the opponent's logical argument by asserting the opponent's failure to act consistently in accordance with its conclusion(s).

Tu quoque "argument" follows the pattern: Person A makes claim X. Person B asserts that A's actions or past claims are inconsistent with the truth of claim X. Therefore X is false.[2]

An example would be Peter: "Based on the arguments I have presented, it is evident that it is morally wrong to use animals for food or clothing." Bill: "But you are wearing a leather jacket and you have a roast beef sandwich in your hand! How can you say that using animals for food and clothing is wrong!"."[2]

It is a fallacy because the moral character or past actions of the opponent are generally irrelevant to the logic of the argument.[3] It is often used as a red herring tactic and is a special case of the ad hominem fallacy, which is a category of fallacies in which a claim or argument is rejected on the basis of facts about the person presenting or supporting the claim or argument.[4]

Another neat one...

"The pot calling the kettle black" is a proverbial idiom that seems to have been of Spanish origin, versions of which began to appear in English in the first half of the 17th century. It is glossed in the original sources as being used of a person who is guilty of the very thing of which they accuse another and is thus an example of Psychological projection.

"Oho!" said the pot to the kettle;
"You are dirty and ugly and black!
Sure no one would think you were metal,
Except when you're given a crack."


"Not so! not so!" kettle said to the pot;
"'Tis your own dirty image you see;
For I am so clean – without blemish or blot –
That your blackness is mirrored in me."[8]

In ancient Greece, mention of 'the Snake and the Crab' signified much the same, where the critic censures its own behaviour in another. The first instance of this is in a drinking song (skolion) dating from the late 6th or early 5th century BCE.[9] The fable ascribed to Aesop concerns a mother crab and its young, where the mother tells the child to walk straight and is asked in return to demonstrate how that is done.[10]

The same theme differently expressed occurs in the Aramaic version of the story of Ahiqar, dating from about 500 BCE. 'The bramble sent to the pomegranate tree saying, "Wherefore the multitude of thy thorns to him that toucheth thy fruit?" The pomegranate tree answered and said to the bramble, "Thou art all thorns to him that toucheth thee".[11]

In Matthew 7:3-5, it is criticism of a less significant failing by those who are worse that is the target of the Sermon on the Mount: "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?"

Let's get our thinking hats on...
