This is my takeaway post trump: I'm absolutely done attempting to help conservatives grow up or develop empathy or self-awareness, easier to do that with children, and it will make more difference. Arguing with them or engaging in this fake debate bullshit they love is worse than pointless, it's trolling. If you make a good point they will edit the video to make you look foolish, they will absorb zero moral lessons, they will process zero of your actual arguments, worse, they have zero moral hangups pursuant to their ends, so they will resort to tactics reasonable adults wouldn't even consider. I will never have another serious, invested political conversation with someone who voted Chump in my lifetime, I just, sadly, don't take them seriously anymore, much like the POS himself. I really, really tried to see if I could put even a little sense in my closest circle of trump voters after November, at great emotional and interpersonal expense, and, more than ineffective, it actually brought me a substantial amount of resentment for people I still love, and once held a great deal of respect for.
