—“What Trump is teaching all of us is that you *never* let bad faith opposition frame the terms of the debate. Never. You don't let them construct disingenuous boundaries that box us into "solutions" that only they allow. You don't let others manipulate us through guilt, emotionalism, and other psychological bad-faith techniques. You don't let them forbid ideas from being discussed. And when they do try it, you laugh at them, belittle them, and call them out as the pathetic weasels they are. But as Trump has also showed us, you leave them a face-saving out. Once they've been brought to heal, you act graciously. The man understands persuasion and deal-making like no other.”
