Do you really want to keep digging yourself this hole?

I really don't get why it's not clear to you.

First, you (seem to) acknowledge the very simple fact you can vote for a candidate without wanting everything that candidate promises.

yup

Then, you argue that, in this special case of the Wall, voting for Trump meant wanting the Wall.

Nope

You conclude that 1) there's no inherent contradiction between your two premises;

Nope

and 2) anyone who points them out can fuck off.

Yup

1). Do you see why voting for Trump does not automatically equate to a vote for the Wall?

yup

Now tell me why it matters. We elect whole candidates. That means when you vote for a candidate, you're voting for the whole thing. Even the policies you don't like. If you voted for Trump, you voted for ALL of Trump. There's stuff Trump has done that I don't like, or wouldn't have supported if that were the only issue I was voting on. So what?

If you're trying to say that Trump doesn't have a mandate to build a wall because maybe possibly potentially some of his supporters might possibly maybe not be fired up about the wall, then please maybe potentially possibly GTFO

something something arrrrrggggghhgghgh!!!

Your argument seems to have evolved from 1) 'we voted for the Wall' to 2) 'Trump has a mandate to build the Wall'. In effect, Trump has a mandate to do w/e the fuck he wants within the bounds of his office. So sure, 2) is correct in that sense.

Not the same as saying 'most americans want a wall.' however.

America voted for a wall.

Glad at least one of us can remember what you said an entire day ago.

^that's what you claimed I said. And in support, you provide this:

America voted for a wall.

Either be smarter, or fuck off

Lol that doesn't even begin to make sense.


step back, take a xanax, count to 10 or 1000 or whatever it takes for you to cool off, and let's walk through this step by step.

First you said this:

If you're trying to say that Trump doesn't have a mandate to build a wall

...which I can only assume means you think Trump does have a mandate to build a wall.

To this i replied

...which you answered with:

To which I replied with a real quote where you say :

America voted for a wall.

To which you come back with the above nonsense.


Look, ok, Trump has a mandate to do whatever he wants wherever he wants and with whomever he wants, within the bounds of his office. So he can build a wall if he can get congress to fund it. That's not in dispute.

What I'm questioning is whether that's what people want as in your statement

America voted for a wall.

They didn't vote for a wall. They voted for a guy who wants a wall. Not sure how that's so hard for you to accept.

There wasn't a referendum where the populace had to either tick a box saying 'wall' or a box saying 'no thanks'. So no, they didn't vote for a wall. Not sure why getting that through your head is so difficult.
