Lesley, when I posted the article I didn't do it without explanation but wrote:

For instance, it now comes to light that the classified documents charges against Trump were a complete set-up by the Biden White House. Did you know that? 

Check this out -- "gaslighting"? I don't think so:

Naturally, I expected you to read the article and comment on whether or not it persuaded you that, as I said, the White House framed Trump. You didn't do that. Rather, you replied "More Trump selling from you" and continued that "it doesn't really go anywhere". And then went on with some superfluous talk about what you assume is Moley or my "unthinking faith in the goodness of Donald" but, Lesley, that was neither here nor there. I offered you some evidence to support an assertion - namely that the classified documents charges are the result of an outrageously corrupt manipulation of the justice system. 

But you couldn't bother to respond. Rather you mocked me for trying to keep the conversation rational. 

Now, after Moley asks you about it, you do say that you read the article, twice even. So first question -- why didn't you tell me that? Or did you only read it when Moley asked you to? If so, why that? I thought we were talking. 

And then you say that you "have no way of evaluating" it but, again, is that really true? Kelly makes a number of specific claims throughout her piece. Do you think she's just making them up? You sound flippant and unserious about this. Now don't get me wrong about "serious". I don't mean sombre and heavy. Hardly. We're just talking. But I mean rational -- looking at arguments, considering their validity, implications, that kind of thing. You're not treating that whole process seriously, perhaps because you just don't care that much.
