Was there ever any question about that?

Yes, when we expressed contempt for Pinochet we were expressing contempt for all of his henchmen, sycophants, cronies, enablers and supporters.

It is a nonpartisan role, but I will never trust the judgment of anyone who supports Donald. No vote for you. Thanks for self-identifying as a collaborator. It is appreciated.

I don't really know any "radical liberals". That's what Trump & Co. call Democrats, even the moderate ones. The only radicals I know are MAGATs.

Hard to believe how far the Washington Post has fallen.
