2. On the coal mines - interesting. With your permission, we'll hold that sub-debate for another day. But, if the question is whether you are literate on the subject, you've put "PAID" to that ticket. Thanks.
1. Trump's language -- here's an agreement and a refinement for you. Ann Coulter (of all people) said that "once a week" he says something that absolutely makes her cringe. And I think that's understating it. :- )
90% of people supporting Trump do not support his language, and Kellyanne Conway has brought him to that understanding, which is why he was so restrained during the debate. (There are 10% who are legit confederate-flag JAIL HILLARY types, as there are 10% on the left who characterize Trump as Hitler.)
What they support is his tilting at the PC windmills, those who wish to keep the microphones in the hands of the leftists. They support his nationalism, as do I and James. They support his decentralization of D.C. power and the economic recovery he think it will bring. They support the 3-5 conservative Supreme Court Justices they believe he will support.
But, yes, most Trump supporters cringe as much as you do when he does something boorish, tacky, foolish, or offensive. Mike Pence has a whale of a job, doesn't he? ;- )
