I believe you misread it. It's about the people who were there yesterday in attendance for his speech, why they were there, and the nature of discussion about them in our culture and media.

It's not a statement in favor or against Mr. Trump or his policies. Those pros and cons were debated -- often thoughtfully and intelligently -- among hundreds of commenters on every thread here at Matt's substack site in the weeks up to the election. That topic is burnt toast in my mind. It's been kicked around here 1,000 times and everyone has their own passionate opinion.

I think your mind performed the Bernie=Trump maneuver. I certainly did not (although I will admit to having been a Bernie Bro). One can briefly note that a kangaroo and giraffe are both animals without equating them as the same animal. They are similar in some ways, but certainly very different in others.

Gotcha now. Thanks for the reply. I understand why that element is over done for you and you're on to exploring other parts of the complex.
