Trump stopped being a regular joe when he announced his candidacy. After that, everything he said and did mattered a hell of a lot more. So yes, I agree with you. It matters more.
But after 15 months of it, the American public decided that it doesn't matter enough to keep him from being a good president. To me, that should be the end of it. After that, every time he does or says something that is totally consistent with his character and behavior to this point....the non-Trump fans need to just suck it up. Playing "gotchya" on minor, hair splitting, details on irrelevant matters is petty, sore-loser-ness.
Thank you for understanding my point and trying to reach a consensus. Now, would you agree with me that there are more players in today’s game than just TrumpFans? Of course that there are those that no matter what Trump does or says they will give him a pass, but would you agree with me that, e.g.:
• Bibi Netanyahu
• Kim Jong-Un
• Rodrigo Duterte
• Vlad “The Impaler” Putin
• Angela Merkel
• Theresa May
• Jacob Zuma
• Joko Widodo
• Shinzo Abe
• Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud
• Mauricio Macri
• Michel Temer
• François Hollande
• Narendra Modi
• Enrique Peña Nieto
• Paolo Gentiloni
• Xi Jinping
• Recep Tayyip Erdoğan
… are all very important in today’s game?
