I am not "defending" anyone. I am questioning the post, partial quotes, paraphrases and you. You, like the people posting the partial information, obviously don't like this guy. #1, republican so right off the bat he has no chance right? #2 start fishing for key words and phrases. Looks like you guys picked some several hundred year old topics, talk about living in the past. (slavery, Confederate flag, Jesus, the Bible, Lincoln). #3 when all else fails, talk about someone else to distract from the Biden administration.
"defend - speak or write in favor of (an action or person); attempt to justify"
The things you have posted about this situation with Loy Mauch are almost the definition of a defense (versus "questioning"). You are trying to find ways to deny it happened, such as your philosophical swing of stating we cannot know what Mauch did unless we witnessed it with our own eyes. Essentially, denying what he has done.
Denial is one of the most common defense mechanisms people use.
And you even used another defense mechanism in the quote above: Rationalization. You want to say that what Loy Mauch is doing is OK because slavery, the Bible, Jesus, etc. are "several hundred year old topics".
That is the exact same logic as saying it's OK to walk around in jack boots waving a Nazi flag because Hitler is long dead and the war was 80 years ago.
"Distraction"? No. It's EDUCATION about the people in the party.
Find a Democrat politician who supports slavery, who claims a flag represents Jesus and a biblical US government, who thinks their god is the "right" god and that people should die because "god" says so, and I will denounce them just as hard as I denounce Loy Mauch.
I am nothing, if not consistent.
Hey Rob, still think inflation, this inflation, is good for the country?
Inflation can ABSOLUITELY be good for the country.
Inflation is almost inescapable when exiting a recession, and exiting a recession is GOOD.
In fact, economists generally agree that recession hurts us more than inflation does, and that inflation is an economic indicator of growth.
And indeed it is: "
While inflation may decrease the purchasing power of your dollars over time, economists generally believe that a low, steady level of inflation is necessary to drive economic growth."
If it feels like your dollar doesn’t go quite as far as it used to, you aren’t imagining it. The reason is inflation, which describes the gradual rise in prices and slow decline in purchasing power of your money over time. Here’s how to understand inflation, plus a look at the steps that you can

And before you say the experts are all wrong like you are wont to do, there's a reason they are economists and not mopping floors at McD's, shingling houses, bartending, singing at arenas: It's because THEY UNDERSTAND THE ECONOMY AND HOW IT WORKS.
