I recognize your right to have an opinion—and to be passionate about it. But there are two potentially gaping weaknesses in your methods.

The first is when you don’t recognize that a hardened politician’s true intentions are always hidden from view. In this case, King’s claim to support Trump after he had already secured conservative support didn’t move the pro Trump ball a single yard. All it really did was keep King in the game. But when he subtly questioned Trump’s conservatism just weeks before the most contested Republican convention ever, King knew very well that’s when his move had the potential to score against Trump and MAGA.

The second weakness is when you allow your focus on the content of a discussion to slip into a desire to exchange personal animus. These are two very different processes, and there’s no profit for you in the latter.
