Liberalism and Conservatism

Couldn't you use the same argument about a belief in god? Say I'm Buddhist talking to a Christian. As you stated "The fact that you believe (in God) proves my point about the fact that the truth doesn't matter and you don't care ( about the FACT that God does not exist.) Try again with a valid argument.
@Chillkroete77 you say Dinesh D'souza gave no evidence that he was selectively prosecuted. That is completely false! He wrote a book about his experience with the thugs and convicts he met, and the first chapter shows how he was selectively prosecuted! Know you are lying.
@GBA87 It's funny that you don't only insist on false statements but actually want me to believe them. If there was that evidence why didn't he present it to the court? Because the judge said that there was no evidence for that claim. But the next thing you are going to tell me is propably that the judge was corrupt... Notice how you don't claim anymore that illegal campaign funding isn't a crime.
@robotrock I used that argument because the fact you were denying was of political nature and directly related to Donald Trump. What you are trying to do is reductio ad absurdum which in this case doesn't work because the absurd case you mentioned doesn't exist within the system of logic. But you were trying to defend Donald Trump as a good president. So could you please try to stay on that topic and don't try to deflect?
OK, but Buddhist don't believe in God and Christians do. So the argument is valid. And it applies directly, which was the point to illustrate that your being illogical making claims that simply do not hold water. Get past basic logic and we can hold a proper debate.
@Chillkroete77 @GBA87 @robotrock

Trump is going to make a lot of money for Americans as a whole. Both for the investors in US companies and for the average workers....unfortunately the elderly and unemployed and sick are not going to see much from Trump (but just to play devil's advocate and support Trump for a second I'll leave his callousness to human suffering aside.) That success, unfortunately, has to be at someone's expense. Now, we've already, as the US, exploited about all we can from our S American, African, and Asian neighbors...hence, the only place to go for gross economic expansion is by "fair" deals with our european and english speaking allies. Though I disapprove of this tactic, the bottom line as an American investor is that I've made almost $300,000 so far in Trump's presidency and I expect I'll earn at least another $1.2 million before his 8 years are up....and 'Yes' I unfortunately did say and do fully anticipate a full 8 years. So....what does that mean....well, basically if you're American and you have some money or you work, life is going to be pretty good for a while. However, if you're German, well...I guess life is gonna suck for you for a while!! ....Conclusion....I guess maybe if you're German you should seriously consider moving to the United States as you are the "kind" of immigrant Trump seems to like!!....or maybe you can invent a time machine, go back to WWII, and win the war for Germany!! Those are your options....unfortunate....but life's not fair!
The judge was corrupt @Chillkroete77. Also, I never said that it wasn't a crime, I said no one else was ever prosecuted for it. Have you heard of the logical fallacy Straw Man?
Oh good god... this wouldn't have happened if Dinesh was an idiotic provocative liberal lol.
@GianMarcoDorio Life in Germany is pretty good, why should it suck?
@robotrock It doesn't apply. My point about Trump destroying the value of truth was referring only to political facts since he is a politician. You're trying to transfer it to a religious discussion which doesn't work because a) it's about religion and not politics and b) the existance of god can't be proven or disproven, therefore it's not a fact. You're confusing opinion (does god exist?) and fact (you don't have to go to jail if you don't work in germany).
So could please now return to the discussion if Trump is a good president or not?
