ujm: “That’s like advocating you cannot have an opinion on Hitler unless you read Mein Kampf.”
I think you are trying to say that you don’t need to prove Hitler is a rasha since it’s already well-established and a forgone conclusion? To us, yes. But U.S polls show a big chunk of Americans are misinformed about Hitler and the holocaust. For these people I would encourage they learn about the facts about this rasha since they are most at risk for actually believing misinformation and revisionist propaganda. I sincerely believe that anyone who gives Trump a full pass for Jan 6 is (i) is similarly misinformed (whether by “news” or social circle) or (ii) doesn’t care anyway and wouldn’t mind much if America became a true dictatorship. For those who fall into (i), yes, the hearing would be helpful. And then go hear what the other side says AFTERwards.
Syag: I understand dossier was flawed. But it was not what started the investigation. Investigation started July 2016 after some troubling (and verified) info came to light that wasn’t mentioned at all in the dossier. The investigators learned of the dossier later that September. And yes, shame on Hillary for lots of things. If she became president it would be correct to hold her to the same scrutiny as Trump was and any other president, and get the facts.
