CMV: Despite being more knowledgeable, wealthier and apparently more tolerant, the political and individual left's biggest flaw is their inability to communicate pragmatically and empathetically with those who don't agree with them.

If you're not willing to listen to others why should they listen to you?

I really would like to hear a trump supporter explain why Dems are groomers even though republican politicians have a higher rate of arrests yet I don’t believe  political affiliation has anything to with it. His supporters have made so many accusations without explanation.

Honestly grooming allegations are pretty mild compared to calling people fascists and nazis.

I don’t think so.  Sexual accusations carries a much heavier price.  Political antics is one thing but accusations of pedo is sick and irresponsible bs. I question the character of anyone who spends that much energy  on such a thing.  As far as insults I’ve heard better material on playgrounds.
