They didn’t even say he did something good, they stated the basic fact that he pardoned everyone with federal marijuana possession charges. It was not even a value judgement, just a factual statement.

Yes he literally did.

Why do you feel this constant need to deny reality when it doesn’t agree with your opinion of a person?

I would like to think so, but like I said to someone else, Trump and his contemporaries were all taught in school the exact same bullshit and it stuck.

Unfortunately, it’s hard to see the benefits of socialism if you are never exposed to it directly and fed a steady diet of propaganda against it during your formative years.

I’m sure after the success of the New Deal, conservatives were overjoyed to find a way to denounce any and all social welfare programs again by just calling it all communism, and it basically worked.

I wasn’t crying or everything, but I was definitely worried that my dad was an alcoholic from what I was taught in school because he had wine with dinner and when friends came over for a dinner party, they would bring a bottle of wine. I was reassured pretty quickly that he wasn’t thankfully.

Then I realized the exact opposite was true when I was in high school- there were so many bottles of wine and booze in the house because of people bringing them over all the time (professors have each other over for dinner constantly) that we had a basement room half-full of them, all on the floor, and I could just grab one when I wanted.

It’s a good thing I didn’t become an alcoholic myself.

The people who are all Trump’s age were taught that socialism is bad and they should stay away from it in school back in the 1950s. And they believed it because, unlike cannabis, you can’t experience it for yourself while in the U.S.
