    I’m not concerned about the downvotes. I do wish there’d be more engagement from people who disagree with my comment, however, as Lemmy is small enough to facilitate actual discussion compared to reddit or other similar forums. But it is what it is.

        you are literally blaming everyone but Trump for Trump’s shit

        I don’t think that’s a fair assessment of my previous statement there. There is a distinction between blaming everyone but Trump for his bullshit, as you read it but I never suggested, and arguing that this specific article does not in any way deserve our attention, which was my point. Not only because it’s an old and played out take, but because pieces like this are equivalent of political frosting. The people who know he’s a crook are going to continue to do so, and the people who don’t think so are not reading this shit anyway.

        Shut up, Mary, I want to hear OTHER PEOPLE talk about Donald Trump’s bad shit while I completely ignore them and focus on you.

        There’s a difference between shit that he’s done that’s either illegal or in some other way actionable, and him just being a dick and a loser, which…like, ok yeah? He’s still fucking up the election process and trampling all over the basic ideas of democratic governance regardless of how you feel about him on a personal level, and that’s all this article is about: “he’s a loser on a personal level, take it from someone who’s personally related to him.”

          You’ve spent quite a bit of time talking about how something isn’t worth our attention…

            It’s almost as if this is a discussion forum and I’ve been having a discussion with various commenters on the topic.

              Wouldn’t it be better to have a discussion about something that is worth our attention?

                Absolutely. But it still doesn’t invalidate my original point: this article was a vapid, superficial, and low effort attempt at journalism.
