    My intent was to push back on your unfounded retort to someone saying they wish there would be one election where the Democrats didn’t try to guilt people into voting for them based on fearmongering. You responded to them with… fearmongering. I responded to you to point out that your fearmongering is the same tactic used in every election ever. I didn’t make any claims about the validity of Trump’s threat to the US.

    You then kept putting different words and claims into my mouth to argue against. So I kept saying “no, I’m just saying that this fearmongering is the same as has been used in every election.”
