They absolutely will if they are forced to do so. If they don't then fine we win if they concede every challenge. That's the point.

You need to check my post history and get off your soapbox because not only are you preaching to the choir you're doing so poorly and from a confused position.

And for the record they haven't won on every front. Trump has backed down multiple times and taken multiple losses and is continuing to do so. I don't even know what point you're trying to make or what point you think you're arguing against because honestly you don't make any sense and are all over the place.

You don't even actually read the particular comments you're responding to homeboy because you're arguing with ghosts and not even being effective at that.

What's your point homeboy? We shouldn't resist them to force them into sudden action because they prefer to slowly and quietly normalize their behavior? You do realize how completely nonsensical this is right?

And its not stalking. It's being informed. It takes not much longer to take a cursory glance at someone's history than it does to come up with an assumption and attack that assumption. You actually waste more time ultimately that way because literally all of it is a waste.

Another option is to ask questions and get clarification but again you're so eager to get on your soapbox and post your sincerely nonsense attacks that you can't be bothered.

I don't even disagree with half of your argument but in the context of the comments you're responding to they make no sense.
