I realized long ago that you see yourself as the king of nuance. You're good at it.
Just like your question: "Would the thief still steal without kids"?


You post a logically unanswerable question (as the thief was in fact a hypothetical construct), in an attempt to convince other pardians, I assume, that you're actually making a cogent point. Which ofc, you're not.


He just gave you the answer to your unanswerable question in the post you quoted.

Is this some kind of troll? You're not genuinely that stupid are you?

The thief in question is fictitious. So expecting an answer as to his/her motivation in other circumstances is silly.
Sorry about your phone. :D

And so following the line of logic that concludes that we can't know what the hypothetical thief would do in other circumstances the answer to the question is what?

I don't understand how this is hard for you. I could teach a four year old this...

"Hey, meet with this russian, acting as a russian of the russian government"
"I don't know anybody, Democrat or Republican, that would take that kind of meeting, with not only a foreign government, but a foreign adversary".

U.S. federal shutdown at hand after fiscal hawk's dissent

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-congress-shutdown/u-s-federal-shutdown-at-hand-after-fiscal-hawks-dissent-idUSKBN1FS232

Missing the midnight deadline technically triggered a shutdown, but it could be brief. The Senate was expected to approve the stopgap bill and budget deal after 1 a.m. and send it to the House of Representatives. Lawmakers in that chamber were deeply divided along party line and passage was uncertain.

But House Republican leaders said the package would be approved, possibly before the start of the work day. If it is, there would be no practical interruption in federal government business. If it is not, the result would be an actual shutdown, the second of 2018, after a three-day shutdown in January.

Taking a meeting with a Russian with suspected ties to the Kremlin in order to receive dirt on your political opponent during a campaign isn't equivalent to the vice chair of the intelligence committee going through the lobbyist of a Russian oligarch to get to Steele.

Going freelancing through russian back channels with known ties to the kremlin and hiding it from your senate colleagues for 7 months, while simultaneously denouncing someone meeting with a russian lawyer with "suspected ties" to the kremlin?
No its not equivalent, but its pretty close, and its hypocritical with the wide net he cast in saying nobody should be meeting with foreign adversaries in secret.
