I don’t think **EasyPhil** is a troll. I’ve met too many Trump supporters like him. By sheer chance they have found a point of argument with at least some tenuous connection to reality and they cling to it desperately, pretending that this straw they have seized with both hands is really an enchanted broadsword with which they will finally slay the libtard dragon menacing their beloved leader. And so they wave it about fiercely and never let it go, even as it becomes increasingly bent, battered and utterly inconsequential. The sad truth is that none of the points **EasyPhil** is trying and failing to make would exonerate Donald Trump, his administration or the Congressional Republicans who are covering for him, even in the unlikely event they were 100% true (which they aren’t). But he can never admit that, because then he’d have nothing at all. ---

[Pretending that his other threads on the subject don’t exist](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=22041752&postcount=17) smacks of trolling. NB: the board’s definition of “trolling” does not require insincerity. ---

But he can never admit that, because then he’d have nothing at all. I’m not a Trump supporter. Your assumption that I am illustrates that you don’t know what you think you know. You and others live in the bizarro world where speaking out against things that just happen to affect Trump makes you a Trump supporter. This is some lazy ass binary thinking bullshit on your part. ---

A thinking person doesn’t jump to conclusions and assume without evidence also this isn’t the McCarthy era where you have to pledge that you aren’t a communist. Just because a person doesn’t agree with how you think or that you hate Trump is a Trump supporter? That’s just fucking stupid. ---
