I’ve been thinking a lot about this exchange this weekend, and not just because it encapsulates SwampCons’ evasiveness in debate.
No, what stuck with me is the cognitive dissonance, which I think is a severely under-appreciated factor to the Right's current divide.

NeverTrump survives on the idea that we don't have to set aside our distaste for Trump for the greater good, because the Left isn't THAT dangerous anyway.
It's no surprise to see pundits who've always been squishes go there, but how do those who DO recognize the Left do it?

Again, how do you literally write the book on the Left's -- including the media's -- support for such a monstrous evil as abortion, and not draw the obvious conclusions about their capacity for dishonesty? Lying about Trump quotes is NOTHING compared to cutting a baby's spine.
Yet time after time people who claim to be pro-life insist on pretending the Left is better than it is, from the idea that babykillers like Joe Biden and Doug Jones are somehow decent human beings to giving the presumption of honesty to dishonest people pushing absurdities.
