    He’d best have a good security detail. If anything goes awry, a bunch of Leftists are going to be peacefully asking him pointed questions that might make him uncomfortable.

    If you’re assuaged to believe that winning means everything, I can’t speak for you. It assumes that you start and stay on the same side of any moral argument and you have to fight for it to the end regardless of if new evidence nullifies your opinion.

    That’s not how humans understand each-other. Humans garner nuance and discern things in new and meaningful ways over time and social interaction. We understand others - people that we can identify with in profound ways even if they don’t necessarily share our point of view.

    I would give him a moment of our time - maybe 30 seconds if he doesn’t state one of the over-used vitriolic statements on the Bingo cards that I will be handing out now.
